Boehner and Cantor live MSNBC.

[RiffRandell]

Boehner shouts "This isn't some damn game! The American people don't want their government shut down and neither do I."

Cantor saying "The American people have seen Obamacare isn't ready for prime time (talking about website).....the President continues to refuse to sit down with us Republicans, and sadly, that is a hallmark of his Presidency."

Fucking lying pieces of shit!!! They are really trying damage control, and it's not working.

ETA: they want to open FEMA and Head Start, etc.

I HATE THEM.

[LordGlenconner]

1. Desperate

And pitiful.

[Coyotl]

15. They know they have to get out there and LIE, LIE, LIE

because they dug their own grave this time!





ONE BILLION DOLLARS and counting = Current Cost of Boehner's Shutdown

21. LIES, that is all they have left....

[LiberalLoner]

2. If there is a God, the damage control won't work.

[spanone]

3. uh, johnny, who shut it down?

[City Lights]

4. They are lousy liars. nt

[ChisolmTrailDem]

5. Do they have some sort of fucking hotline to "The American People"? I am

sick and fucking tired of them lumping me into their idiocy!

[HangOnKids]

17. The American People To Them Are Pieces Of Shit

And since they are full of it I guess they think they "know us."

[RiffRandell]

6. Fucking farce.

Some woman saying "the Republicans are committed and working every day to keep this government open.....the President said he won't negotiate."

I want to bash my tv.

[Buns_of_Fire]

7. No Julius Caesar moment?

Every time I see those two together, I expect slimy lil' Eric to pull out the shiv and ensure his ascendancy once and for all.

[Bobbie Jo]

16. lol

[RiffRandell]

18. A reporter asked Boehner about dissension in the party

and he said he and his colleagues "get along just fine." Something to that effect....it was disgusting.

[Ikonoklast]

33. Cantor has the "Lean and Hungry" look down pat.

But he'll use someone else to stick the knife in, weaselly bastards are like that.

[MoonRiver]

8. So open the government up, you fucker!

[Mass]

9. The only reason I care is because it means they will last at least until next week

which means people will have to suffer more. If they say that, there will not be a solution until at least Wednesday.

[lostincalifornia]

10. you cannot get through to both boehner and cantor. People must really be slamming them

[BeyondGeography]

11. Assclown flopsweat in the morning

They've underestimated this guy yet again:

[Blue Owl]

12. The ball's in your court, fuckos

n/t

[StrictlyRockers]

13. Sputter sputter, blather blather! We're losing the damn game!!!11!! n/t

n/t

[HangOnKids]

19. Well taking a giant dump in center court

Kind of reflects poorly on the player.

[C_U_L8R]

14. Then open it back up, asshole !

And stop saying what the American people want because you're lying.

[Avalux]

20. They are crashing and burning, yet still refuse to budge. So is the way of HUBRIS. n/t

[Xyzse]

22. Sadly, I am not hearing much from the Democrats

Republicans are crowding the air waves.

I still think it needs to be repeated hard the following:

Republicans wasted around 60.9 Million at 42 attempts costing about 1.45Mil each try to repeal Obamacare.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/09/13/tim-huelskamp-obamacare-repeal_n_3921960.html
http://miami.cbslocal.com/2013/05/16/obamacare-repeal-votes-costs-tens-of-millions/
--They could have used that time and money for other more critical votes.
--It has been ruled constitutional by the Supreme Court.
--They need to make a running total of this.

Repeal of Obamacare/ACA would cost 109 Billion in deficit.
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2013/09/25/fact-check-repealing-obamacare-adds-to-deficit/

They also do not talk about how the infrastructure for the ACA has been in place, and the fact that Insurance Companies already have their rates set with the ACA considered. That would have caused a great big mess if defunding comes to pass.

That is why they are trolls. They have no idea how to look for other factors and the repercussions of their actions.

[geek tragedy]

23. We don't want Democrats in front of cameras. The more people see Republicans, the more

they'll associate them with the shutdown.

Simple brain programming.

[randome]

25. Good point.

[Xyzse]

27. Maybe... You might be right.

I don't know, I tend to think that some people would fall for it unless people actually disabuse them of that notion.

I also think that if you allow someone else to dominate the message they will brainwash them.

I mean, granted at times they would be digging a deeper hole...
It just upsets me hearing them say over and over "Democrats are not negotiating, they don't compromise". They are just sticking to that message, and it is simple enough to stick.

I guess, I just want to hear another message.

[JoePhilly]

24. Translation: "You made me hit you."

[B Calm]

26. We had a guy in high school that reminds me of that snobby ass Cantor.

I hated him and his fucking attitude, just like I do with Cantor.

[RiffRandell]

29. Haha! nt

[displacedtexan]

28. And Cantor had trouble READING HIS DAMNED NOTECARD, too!

What a tool! Didn't even know his material well enough to speak without notes.

[LeFleur1]

31. The 'Merican People

How dare these sickening twits get in front of a camera and act as if they are representing "The American People"? I'm so afraid there are those spiteful voters, or ignorant voters, who will believe the manure they spread.

[Erose999]

30. Bohener is shitfaced. He probably got up hung over and stumbled into the corner store for a

deuce-deuce of Steel Reserve and a handfull of lottery tickets like all the other sad drunks in line at 8am at the gas station where I get gas in the morning.

Breakfast of Champions, eh Boner?

Edit: alcoholism is a sad and terrible disease, but I have no pity at all for Agent Orange.

[L0oniX]

32. Sounds like sweet desparation to me. I hope Obama hammers them some more.
