Who is pulling the strings in the back room? I think it is Paul Ryan wants to come out as some kind of hero for his presidential ambitions.

I for one am, of course, livid. We need to email the so called "Speaker&quot Orange Boy) about this by the millions. Also letters to the Editors, our US Reps and Sens, and ask for a reply.

when RepubliCONS will change any rule they can if it helps their bizarre cause.

Too bad most liberals aren't willing to fight as strongly for their cause.

Obama fighting the blackmail by RepubliCONS and the government shut down is a very proud exception.
