Damn this is the crisis I expected NEXT Spring

[nadinbrzezinski]

well kiddies, I hope you got enough popcorn...

Oh and on edit, this will be extremely painful for all of us. Shut down government... and all that.

[Poll_Blind]

1. Yeah, I this is happening sooner than I expected. Not sure what to make of that.

PB

[nadinbrzezinski]

7. Well I know what rating agencies will make of it

and none of it will be good.

[bemildred]

2. Well, that's what happens when things start to get out of control ... nt

[nadinbrzezinski]

8. They got out of control a while ago

but this is now far worst, as in obvious.

[tritsofme]

3. Looks like there will be a short-term CR.

The crisis will get kicked to the spring.

[ohheckyeah]

4. What crisis? What am I missing

this time? :-)

No time for the news today.

[nadinbrzezinski]

6. The senate leader just pulled the spending ombinus

bill from the floor

Yep, it sounds like we are gonna see the guv'ment closed

[ohheckyeah]

9. Thanks.

What would I do without folks like you at DU to help me get up to date?

[nadinbrzezinski]

11. I was taking a nap (while my mac did all the geeky stuff after picked up from store)

and what do I wake up to? This crap.

I was having a nice dream... damn it.

[ohheckyeah]

15. It's always something.

Why does everything in this country have to be such a cluster?

[notesdev]

18. for today's news read last week's Onion

[spanone]

16. well it worked so well for newt the first time.....

[nadinbrzezinski]

17. Yep but in the meantime they are going to

which means... we will have to hunker down since that is my income... between retired pay and Postal Service Pay.

[cali]

5. The repukes will not shut down the gov't. they know that's

political suicide.

[eleny]

10. But Reid and McConnell are getting together to create a continuing resolution

They just need to decide what month it expires. So it could indeed be Spring before the fit hits the shan.

Saw that discussed on KO.

[nadinbrzezinski]

12. And the tea party crowd won too, he reported that too

[eleny]

13. That's right

So when the continuing resolution runs out they get to write the new budget.

Wait till reality its them in the forehead. I wonder how they'll enjoy the pitchforks and the torches.

[nadinbrzezinski]

14. This is why this crisis is here

I expected to happen until the 112th.

This is preview of coming attractions.
