The cat(the nation)will now spring into action. The GOPeas will be under attack:
It's not a funny situation, but the kittehs represent what I do think will happen. The crazies may be able to escape consequences because of their districts composition. For many of them, there will probably be a kerfuffle to say the least.
BTW as the markets drop, Wall Street may be another creature dropping on their heads. They didn't pay those mooks to lose kazillions because of idiocy.
SHUTDOWN!
