#1 We aare WINNING this thing, and they are trying to lose it, make a bigger mess, one which we will have to go back in and clean up at far greater losses.

Stupid bastards. What is wrong with them?

Hang them all for treason.

#2 This was a "clever" move by the trunks to be able to ask 149 asses why they voted to defund the troops when they claim to support them. The trunks are going to need a lot more than that. The next 4 years are going to be really bad.

#3 Right now, there are barely enough contrary votes to stimey the Dummocrats stupidity and cowardice. The loss of even ten House seats will allow the madness to go forward. Can you imagine what 4 years of mayhem under these fools could create ? Idiot Feinstein even injected some pet project about allowing slave workers for her buddies in the Central Valley to this, a war funding proposal. Why did the wimp, Horseface Harry, allow this to be stuck to an appropriations bill ? The Dummocrats demonstrate daily that they are simply too stooopid to govern. They are not a legitimate party at all. They are simply a collection of fools and buffoons.

#4 The House of Representatives, in a surprise and largely symbolic move

I don't think this is the House's first symbolic move on war funding. Each time they've lost. I don't have the energy to get upset about stupid symbolism any more.
