How Did Dems Put a 1,000-Page COVID Bill Together in 1 Weekend? They Didn't - We've Been Set Up

Back in my school days, I wasn’t so much a procrastinator as a procrastination artist.

I remember cramming together some pretty dodgy papers over a long weekend back in college. Armed with little more than coffee, my iMac and some textbooks, I could churn out about 20-ish pages of half-readable pap between Friday evening and the Sunday midnight deadline.
 

Not that it was any good. In one case, stuck for a hook, I compared two philosophers to professional wrestlers and went from there. I think the philosophers were Nietzsche and Kierkegaard; I can’t remember the wrestlers. The paper inexplicably got an A-, presumably more because of entertainment value than academic merit.

I think there is real optimism that we could get something done in the next few hours,” (Pelosi) said in an interview with CNBC.

“If it has poison pills in it — and they know certain things are poison pills — then they don’t want unanimous consent, they just want an ideological statement.”

This exceeds mere chutspah.

Thanks, news media, for creating this utter monstrosity of a politician.

This shit is kind of like a crappy horror movie, and right now this porkulus is Friday the 13th, Part 54

Toward the end of the weekend Schumer just started adding stuff like IKEA furniture instructions, and dirty limericks to the bill.

There once was a Speaker named Nancy
Whose leadership skills weren't fancy
She holler and yell
And make life a hell
For all those who lacked sycophancy

I'd be fine with that.  At least it doesn't add to our national insolvency problem.

Cuomo says $2 trillion dollar Senate bill would be TERRIBLE for NY - only a "drop in the bucket" compared to need.  "I'm telling you these numbers don't work and I told House members, we need your help"

Part of New York's 'drastic need' comes from piss poor policy, even policy in direct opposition to advice already given, possibly done to achieve a result that could be milked for political gain, if not fiscal relief, done in contempt for the safety and well being of their population.

Make your own bucket, NY. Fill it yourself. You have repeatedly stymied economic growth, even to the point of harming consumers in other states. You have ignored science, both in making general policy and in this instance, especially.

I don't see why the rest of the country should subsidize your stupidity.

At this point I think no bill is better than what we keep hearing is in this bill. If there is no relief/stimulus I may be put out of business, but better that than being a man held in bondage by a radical leftist state.
