2014 Election Thoughts and Reactions

Mitch McConnell is a pinhead. Why? In an absurd statement and immediate capitulation on spending and borrowing, Mitch McConnell just surrendered Congress's power of the purse to Obama: "Let me be clear," McConnell said, "there will be no government shutdown and no default on the national debt."
Point 1 - There is no default on the debt because every day the Treasury brings in more than enough to service the debt.
Point 2 - McConnell has already surrendered to the Democrats. All they have to do is threaten a government shutdown and McConnell will give them what they want.
Point 3 - This already undermined the Constitution. The "Power of the Purse", the power to defund certain projects and agencies, is the primary "check and balance" power given to Congress in the Constitution.
Mitch McConnell is still a pinhead. Remember this? "Shutting down 17% of the government would be disastrous for Republicans in the 2014 mid terms."
"Old Guard" Republicans who trashed conservatives got fewer votes.
