And here we are again, less than 48 hours before a government
shutdown, and the Republican party has sent a bill back to the House knowing
that they are going to reject it and send it back. Sure, sure, they put in a
clause that is to ensure that the military continues getting paid even if the
government shuts down, but they put in there another clause wanting to push
back the health care reform bill another year. I personally want to choke every
single GOP member until they turn blue in the face. Why? Because I am turning
blue in the face with the ridiculousness of the demands BOTH parties are
making.
Get over it. Whether you like it or not, the health care reform
law is going to go into place. Yes, it’s the biggest piece of garbage to date
and yes, it’s going to tax our health care system in an unprecedented way.
Whine, bitch, and moan. We all do! Great job on the filibuster Mr. Whatever
your name was! Did it get you what you wanted? No. Was it a complete waste of
time? Yes. Do you feel better? I’m sure you do. Because the way I see this, it
was a complete and utter waste of 21 hours where, maybe possibly, someone could
be the bigger person and put aside their own personal agenda and maybe…ummm…I
don’t know…STOP THE FUCKING GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN FROM HAPPENING.
I’m sick. I don’t feel well. And the closer midnight of 1
October gets here the more sick to my stomach I get. Why? Because as of
tomorrow morning, that is the last guaranteed paycheck my family will receive.
I want to know who is going to pay our utilities? What about the
other bills? How many deals with the devil am I going to have to strike to
ensure that we CAN pay our bills and that my husband isn’t pulled in and talked
to about his lack of paying for anything? Oh, yes…military members do indeed
get talked to about paying their bills on time…EVEN when it is a government
ordered shut down.
My personal thoughts about the Tea Party? A certain event in Massachusetts
comes to mind. I however; think that instead of throwing crates of tea, we
should instead throw the members themselves in a crate and well…if you know
your history then you’ll know what I think we should do with said crates.
I’m just so very, very tired of it being the military members
pay that gets pulled into question and threatened.
This once great nation is so far down the proverbial rabbit hole
at this point that there is no coming back. Raise the debt ceiling. Go ahead
with the health care reform. Everything is already bankrupted. What’s a few
more things at this point? Hell, right now…it’s going to be my family and
thousands of others going bankrupt.
What’s next? Do I care? Do I even want to know?
No, I don’t.
