The Blame Game

Submitted by ub on

Where is our nation's leadership? How did we get into this serious mess of facing a government shutdown? Ask any one of the GOP controlled members of Congress, or @POTUS why they've done nothing but delay and allow this danger?

Why have American taxpayers allowed our representative lawmakers to drift closer to a federal government shutdown? The Republican-controlled US House approved a funding bill on a largely party-line vote, with Democrats in the Senate vowing to defeat the measure?

Congress passed a two-and-a-half-month continuing resolution that also-ran until the second week of December, before ultimately approving a new four-and-a-half-month extension to allow for repealing ObamaCare before the end of the fiscal year 2017.

The best way to stop this madness is to make sure all US citizens are registered to vote, even if someone has to request an absentee ballot. Then send a clear message that their gravy train is about to run them over.
