They Say They Don’t Have Time To Read The Bill!
THEY CAN’T READ THE BILLS THEY VOTE ON BUT THEY CAN PLAY SOLITAIRE AND CHECK BALL SCORES!
Nothing else need to be said. This is one of their THREE DAY WORK WEEKS that we all pay for. I am ready to start from the beginning by voting out all elected officials and not letting any of them stay in office for more than two terms. No more lifelong healthcare, retirement, voting in their own pay raises, taking perks on our taxes, etc.
House Minority Leader Lawrence F. Cafero Jr., R-Norwalk, pictured standing, far right, speaks while colleagues Rep. Barbara Lambert, D-Milford and Rep. Jack F. Hennessy, D-Bridgeport, play solitaire Monday night as the House convened to vote on a new budget. (AP)
The guy sitting in the row in front of these two… he’s on Facebook, and the guy behind Hennessy is checking out the baseball scores.
These are the folks that can’t get the budget out by Oct. 1, Seriously!!!
So, we’ve got a 30 day budget extension. Well, guess what, 30 days from now we will be in the same boat. I guess this makes it easy for the news ‘reporters’ as all they have to do is recycle the same headlines from this week and from 2 years ago. And these yo-yo’s will still be playing SOLITAIRE!!!

This is the Connecticut State House, and in Florida we pay for our own State House and the U.S. House of Representatives, but not the Connecticut States House. Also, I’m pretty sure the House Minority Leader is John Boehner of Ohio. But what do I know? I’m just a Democrat.

Well if this is Connecticut’s State House then the article is correct in labeling Rep. Cafero as House Minority Leader. The point is that if this kind of thing is going on at the state level (which is outrageous for the people of Connecticut) then there is no doubt in my mind that this is also happening to some degree at the national level as well.

I couldn’t agree with you more. That is why I am a strong supporter of term limits.
One term in Congress,
One term in jail!
