10. The kids w/ cancer Harry Reid issue was a hatchet job

Tue Oct 8, 2013, 08:31 PM

Oct 2013

Does anyone really think Harry Reid is against funding cancer research? Reports like that would turn me off from the media. The newspaper editors are dealing with facts, not partisan talking points. Great job Mr. President.

Lets end this thing now. Obama compromised and agreed to sequestration already. They know Obamacare can be tinkered with, but won't go away. Passing individual bills for political gain as 800,000 people sit at home from work is ridiculous. I don't even think that is a partisan statement. It is time to move on and take the debt ceiling issue off the table forever. GOP you lose that chip.

Media, either support the shutdown like Fox and Limbaugh or report the facts. Cut the crap.

What will it take to reasonably end this thing?
