It's all a big sham. They are NOT throwing their staffs under the bus...they want you to think so. [View all]

It's just a sham to get their base to think they are sacrificing something and are punishing WH staff by saying they want to remove all the subsidies for their staff and WH staff. When they take that sham of a bill to conference we all know that these provisions will be taken out. It's just a move to try to get more of the ditto head base to support them because they know how much their base hates to think that Federal workers and Congressional staff get any kind of special benefits. In conference they won't let that happen. You know damn well that they are not going to give up their own health care benefits.
