MAKE NO MISTAKE…THIS SHUTDOWN IS ALL ON THE DEMOCRATS!!!

Those in the ‘fake news’ media continue in their effort to assist the Democrats in what is their continuing effort to paint Republicans as being responsible for the ongoing government shutdown, and in so doing they proceed to dig up those who, while no one has ever heard of them other than perhaps their constituents, can be counted on to take part in their cause. That cause being, of course, that were not for the unwillingness of the Republicans to negotiate, and to compromise, the government would have been open weeks ago. Of course, those on the left define negotiation and compromise as meaning that the Republicans must simply surrender.

Democrats are to be seen as being no way at fault for the shutdown. And it was once again that we saw another example of this just this past Thursday when, during the broadcast of C-SPAN’s “Washington Journal,” Rep. Janelle Bynum, Democrat from Oregon, claimed that she voted against the continuing resolution to keep the government open because it wasn’t a clean CR because, “there’s always been a poison pill to it.” She then responded to a question on what exactly these poison pills were by saying, “I think what you’re trying to do is shift the responsibility to Democrats.” But Democrats own the shutdown whether they want to admit it or not.

Host Greta Brawner asked, “We talked earlier to Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN), he was on the program, and he made the argument that Democrats, in previous situations, avoided government shutdowns by voting 13 times for so-called clean continuing resolutions that would fund the government at the previous year’s funding levels. Why not agree now?” Bynum answered, “Well, look, I just got here. I don’t play politics. I want a clean bill that focuses on the American people, that makes sure kids have a full belly. And all of the clean this, clean that, Americans don’t understand that. They know if they have their benefits or not."

She went on to say, “So, put a bill on the table, make sure it’s very pure and clean, as they like to say, and it doesn’t have a whole lot of fluff in it. I’m not here for games. I just want to make sure kids get fed.” Brawner then asked, “They did have a clean CR vote on September 19 in the House. Did you vote for it?” Bynum responded by saying, “I disagree with your characterization and want to make sure that we’re very clear about what Republicans have been doing. Any bill that they’ve put forth, they’ve always had some extra stuff to it. There’s always been a poison pill to it. So, I disagree with your characterization."

Brawner followed up, “What were the poison pills of the clean CR — or the continuing resolution, you say it’s not clean, that was voted on in the House in mid-September?” Bynum responded, “Here’s what is important: I think what you’re trying to do is shift the responsibility to Democrats. Speaker Johnson controls the House. He should come back, pull Republicans off of vacation, and make sure that we have discussions on what the country needs. We know children need to be fed. Anything else is passing the buck and is playing politics.” Bynum is just another useful idiot. Lying with a straight face is an art the Democrats have perfected over decades of practice.

DEI public officials such as this buffoon Bynum are not giving their constituents their money’s worth. This moron is apparently unaware the House has already passed the clean CR and it’s now in the hands of the Senate. She says that Speaker Johnson needs to call the House back to go over the CR. The House has already passed the CR. It’s the Senate Democrats, with Chucky Schumer leading the way, that keep voting the CR down. These Democrats are getting desperate. She claims that there’s a poison pill in the CR but refuses to say what it is because it’ll only cast blame on the Democrats. She makes as much sense as every other Democrat on this subject, which isn't much.

This lady is an idiot. She would have served herself, as well as her party, far better if she had simply kept her big mouth shut. Like all Democrats, this clown is likely terrified from being primaried by a well-funded challenger from the extreme left. She was completely incoherent. Their language has to be so tortured because the logic is so twisted. Typical of Democrats. The DNC now seems to be actively recruiting low IQ morons to be installed into House seats they consider safely in their hands. This ditz can barely understand what her daily talking points mean and she is too dumb to realize she is embarrassing herself even with softball ‘fake news’ interviewers.

Quite frankly, even after all the lying these Democrats have done, after all the continuing attacks on and obstruction of President Trump and the administration and with the preferential treatment of illegal aliens at the expense of American citizens, their constant display of ignorance and stupidity and their usual holier than thou arrogance, more people continue to blame them for the shutdown, than don’t. This may very well end up being the biggest self-inflicted political disaster the Democrats have ever committed. They’re literally punishing their own voter base which seems pretty nutty to me. And yet they persist with the government shutdown.

This woman is just plain 'stupid.' She is black, and she is a Democrat, so no knowledge, skill and ability is required to be a member of Congress. I can only assume that there must be a rather sizable bunch of really stupid voters in her district back in Oregon. And what poison pill was it that this imbecile supposedly saw in the CR that was passed by the House? She opened her mouth but once again could not back up none of her assertions. That Democrats continue to attract a certain dumb-ass element to their party is really quite bizarre. Look, no one really cares what she says because she will vote exactly how she’s told to vote by party leadership.

Democrats have told us repeatedly that they shut it down because of healthcare. It had nothing to do with any “poison pill.” The entire thing is over Obamacare subsidies where the Democrats lied about the price by only passing them for five years instead of 10 to hide the true price tag for this fiasco. So, their lie about the cost has now caught up to them and now they want to continue them. The Obamacare subsidies are going to end. They want to pass new five-year subsidies to replace them. All to cover their lie to the taxpayers five years ago over the costs of the subsidies. The shutdown, therefore, is their fault and any harm being caused are of their own making.

Finally, this kind of political BS gives me a headache. This entire shutdown is the fault of the Democrats. They know it, those in the ‘fake news’ media know it and, most importantly, the American people know it. Democrats continue to refuse to accept that they lost the last election and are no longer in the majority. And instead of behaving like adults and simply moving on, they chose to behave like spoiled children by threatening to hold their breath until they turn blue. And by that I mean, their response has been to move even further left for no other reason than political survival. How many elections do they have to lose before they get a clue?
