Don’t Worry, Congress Will Still Get Paid During Gov’t Shutdown

[upstatecajun]

Just in case you were super concerned about how Michele Bachmann and John Boehner and Louie Gohmert and Joe Barton and the rest of America’s corrupt lunatic wingnut legislators would survive the Government Shutdown, don’t worry! They can still get paid, and they probably will — unpaid furloughs are for the commoners, hahahahahahaha. “Lawmakers would continue to get paid during a shutdown, unless the full Congress voted otherwise.

Both the House and Senate have voted to suspend their own pay during a shutdown, but as part of legislation that has not passed the other chamber,” reports the communist newsletter the Wall Street Journal.
But this might “look bad,” so the millionaires who perform in Congress will either pass some law to skip their salaries or maybe they’ll just give the money to “charity” or whatever, hahaha

his orange QT Tan lotion.

every newspaper, broadcast, blog and social network page in the largest possible font.

And isn't that a good thing?
