    You mean when you implied that delays in international shipping was creating a food shortage and it was disproven?

    McConnell made an incredibly savvy move today in offering a temporary extension to the national debt limit. While Progressive, Moderate and Republicans posing as Democrats from Arizona and West Virginia squabbled over reconciliation, McConnell succinctly created a fight over debt, then proposed a solution.

    By doing so, it highlighted just how stupidly unorganized the Democrats are and portrayed Senate Republicans as the only ones to get things done. It was a total political stunt, but a damned well played one.

    Congress foresees short-term debt fix amid perilous standoff

    WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican and Democratic leaders edged back Wednesday from a perilous standoff over lifting the nation’s borrowing cap, with Democratic senators signaling they were receptive to an offer from Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell that would allow an emergency extension into December.

    Imagine a world where.....

    Congress passes a stand-alone Debt Ceiling measure extending the credit line....

    or the alternative (which one side wants currently)

    Trying to force Congress to pass multiple legislative pieces along with a Debt Ceiling increase....

    Who's at fault again?

    "Democratic Pennsylvania State Rep. Proposes Requiring Vasectomies at Age 40"

    "I will be introducing a bill inspired by @RepKellyCassidy that requires all inseminators to undergo #vasectomies within 6 weeks of having their third child or 40th birthday, whichever comes first."

    Forced sterilization... which party is the Authoritarian one? They are fucking Communists looking to dictate every aspect of your life... this is not a fucking joke, and people need to wake the fuck up.

    The proposal is satire, according to Rabb, and is just meant to spark a conversation.

    "It's levity on a very serious issue, but the bottom line is I want to create a conversation about how easily we accept government intervening into the health decisions of women, which should be between them and their family, and then saying what would it feel like if men were being regulated," he said.



    Did you even read your own article? His tweet of “6 weeks” should have been a dead give away.

    He actually introduced it... perhaps someone... for "satire" should propose sterilizing women, instead of just providing birth control... I mean... it's just "satire" right?

    Get the fuck outa here... "satire"...

    So an elected official thinks it's just funny? It's just to "spark debate"? Please... if you don't think these jackasses won't try to force something like this, just like the other legislation that was introduced so that women can sue men if they get pregnant is a "joke" or "satire"... then you're just a fucking idiot.

    Do you even pay attention? What they say, and what they do, are two different things... stop falling for the words coming out of their mouth.

    Someone else in Congress already did this a year or 2 ago, so that guy is really just recycling someone else's old jokes like a noob.

    ""We haven't seen anything yet": Food prices continue to climb"

    Taking Gelston's advice.. I'm just here to call people names and call out their stupidity... Hey Seran, remember when you said "there aren't any food supply shortages duhhhh"... that's like the fourth thing you've been wrong on this week alone....

    Wait.. forgot the name calling... bitch!

    Doing better Gelston?
