...drive the fuck on.
Yes, the Republicants now hold the House and the Senate. Guess the fuck what?
They have to govern like fuck.
And I know they can't, because they are dumb fucks.
Time to turn our attention to 2016 when these fuckwits will have their ass showing, which will then be handed to them.

(41 posts)Though it's easy to say "keep calm", it's harder to actually remain calm when the next few years could spell disaster for you and your family. Any kind of deal worked out between the White House and Congress will more than likely be at the detriment of the American people. The President has, in the past, offered Republicans cuts to Social Security and Medicare. Isn't it natural to assume that, without Democrats in Congress to keep him in check, the President will again offer cuts to Republicans as some kind of bargaining chip? What does that mean to the people who depend on those benefits? Was it not through Congressional and Presidential cooperation that a large portion of the Bush tax cuts were extended?
This is exactly what I keep thinking as I read all these "Calm down, it's not so bad, we'll regroup and be okay" threads.
