"One sophomoric response does not deserve another," said Republican South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham in a statement criticizing Trump's move.

Praise for Graham over support for Kavanaugh is a distant speck in the rear view mirror.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

The Douche Bag Senator from the great state of South Carolina never fails to disappoint.

This is delicious.

Message sent is that we will NOT conduct government business as usual.

They said he needed to take a little schitt in the bus bathroom.  He couldn't work one up.

What business does she have going there anyway?
@txradioguy

It is a Democrat group of legislators going to a war zone to know what is going on there so they have a better understanding of what is needed there in terms of legislation.  Senators went there a week or so ago for the same reason.  Going to a war zone puts one life in danger - it is not for fun and play.

100% Bullshit. These clowns are going there for sound bites and video clips of them hanging out with soldiers to promote themselves. They are not going to be near any gun shots.

Despite what she thinks...she the leader of one party in one half of a bicameral legislative body...she is not "equal" to the President.
She is embracing her Muslim constituents.

They need to visit the southern border and wait for the arrival of the next caravan.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

I do agree that a trip by a  congressperson just to press the flesh should not be subsidized by the taxpayers (allowing a military plane for her and her entourage).  If Pelosi wants to go overseas to charm people, she ought to pay her own way.  Unlike a number of her constituents, she is being paid during this shutdown.  I think she can afford the trip on her own.

Having said that though, I really don't care for all this childishness.  Why can't these people put on their big kid pants, get together and hammer out a solution?  These theatrics are getting old.

@txradioguy

Her "business" going there is to stump for Dim votes by saying Trump doesn't care enough about them or about America to go,but she and the other Dims just LOVE the soldiers.

Purely political campaign trip,and she was going to do it using taxpayer dollars.

Not a chance in HELL of her flying commercial and having to wait in line and get her bags checked like the "little people".

What's even sweeter about this...is the fact the "delegation" that was going with her was already on the bus to Andrews and had to be turned around.  :silly:

@txradioguy

Thank you,thank you,thank you! That just made it 10x sweeter,
