They have not lost anything, no matter how many times you say it, doesn't make it so.

They didn't get what they shutdown the government over.  Call it whatever you want.

If I may be so bold as to correct that statement:

They haven't gotten what they want YET but the battle is FAR from over!

Sink is just projecting his wishful thinking again.  In fact this is going to help conservatives significantly in 2014.. already people are using this against red state Democrats - case in point



and.. BTW.. unlike many in the senate and congress Ted Cruz announced he was donating his paycheck to charity each day the government was shut down.

It's over as far as defunding or delaying Obamacare is concerned.  Nobody from the Republican side is even talking about that now.

Your duck is loose! That is all some of them are talking about and will continue to talk about because THEY, unlike you, realize that it has to be killed or our republic is DEAD!

OK.  Believe what you want.  Boehner is not talking about defunding or delaying, and he's driving this.

Oh, my aunt Gertie. I cannot believe this guy had the audacity to say this to another poster:

You love the ad hominems when you're losing an argument.

One thing for sure, what he lacks in acumen he more than abundantly makes up for in chutzpah.
