Corker to vote no on GOP tax bill

Corker to vote no on GOP tax bill
By Jordain Carney - 12/01/17 04:55 PM EST

Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) said on Friday that he will oppose the GOP tax plan, making him the only GOP senator currently expected to vote no.

Corker has long said he could vote against the bill if it hiked the deficit, and he reconfirmed to those concerns in his statement.

“This is yet another tough vote. I am disappointed. I wanted to get to yes. But at the end of the day, I am not able to cast aside my fiscal concerns and vote for legislation that I believe, based on the information I currently have, could deepen the debt burden on future generations," Corker said in a statement.

Apparently they already have the votes to pass the Senate bill without Corker.

   Flake either has some bad skeletons in his closet or Trump really did run him off, either way it's a win for Arizona and America,  and they get a twofer with McCain about to retire (from Earth).

Yep.  He gave the standard BS reason:
“After much thought, consideration and family discussion over the past year, Elizabeth and I have decided that I will leave the United States Senate when my term expires at the end of 2018,”

Well, maybe you are a serious poster, but not here. 800 posts.

Personally I put you in the troll category, but that may just be me.

After 800 posts here trying to discuss serious issues...
but getting silly nonsense and troll attack responses.
I have come to the conclusion this forum is exactly the
opposite of what it is advertised to be... a GOP forum.
But whatever this forum would be advertised to be...
it's goofy immature trolls would give it a bad name.

Seems you have reached a conclusion.

I have read many of your posts. Fairly certain I will not miss you. Be honorable..... unto thy oneself.

   @KingsX I have followed you through the Brief time you've been here, even defended you on occasion.  You took on all comers with such skillful pride and bravado that I find it hard to believe you'd throw that away just when most of us are beginning to like and respect you.

I don't know if troll posters here waste their REAL lives by constantly engaging in goofy degenerate dumbed-down sit-coms... or just waste their time, your time, my time and forum bandwidth engaging in ignorant goofy degeneracy here.  Either way,  I have more important things to do.

Nice to see at least one GOP Congressmember still remembers that the GOP used to be against increasing the federal deficit.  Too bad most republicans have repudiated even that simple premise.

Maybe, you should not be worried/distracted by the goofs.

I tried to run a community based board once.....trust me... no bed of roses.

So..... I can appreciate what Myst, Et Al. are doing here. Freedom is a hard thing to manage. Overall they do a really ...I mean really good job at it. Kudos to them.

So if you are for real @KingsX  , then garner a strategy to , swat away the gadflys...so's to speak.
