This quote says it all
"In the real world, this is a solid achievement," said Rep. Pete King (R-L.I.). "It's 90% of what we were looking for."

1. For once, King is being hypobolic instead of hyperbolic.

2. Finally, a real no spin zone from the right.

3. A Pete King quote is not my bellwether for "saying it all". What
do you expect any of them to say?

Have you heard any of the republicans who HATE this? But I guess Pete King's quote trumps them all?

7. No, but we don't seem to always spin everything as a matter of course,
as they do.

9. Then is there a Dem saying "We got 50% of what we wanted?"
Or 40%?

5. Maybe they are saying they
"hate this" to fool gullible dems such as yourself into liking it. :shrug:

6. Just because we disagree is that justification for you to
insult me? Proud of yourself?

You are a petty person. Hope it felt good putting me down.

12. Happy!
Considering you started it with your own form of passive aggressive condescension.

10. There ya go! If Peter King likes it, it's BAD. They got 90% of what they wanted?
Why did Obama stop there? :eyes:
