    There is no Big Brother. There are a collection of 100s of thousands of individuals who work for the government all with their own agendas most of which involve clinging onto their jobs so that they can feed and clothe their families.

        Yes it is. pay for your own healthcare, you freeloader. Hey you might have to go mow a few more lawns with your "groundskeeping service," but that's life.


        Bullshit......you got a link or some actual source [other than a talk show or Op-Ed piece] for this dumb ass statement
        Go look it up, Lazy (laziness is also probably why you want others to pay your healthcare bill). I found it online. Get to it, boy!

          True. Like the Dems don't pull the same shit. Hey, if the dems want our military to be paid, all they have to do is sacrifice a few abortions in DC. That's not too much to ask, is it?

                  Funny.....I saw an idiot Retardlican on the Senate Floor today claiming that 90% of all abortions provided by Planned Parenthood would be cut off by passing the Retardlican budget package.

                  Funny thing is, there are NO abortions funded by Federal dollars whatsoever.

                  CNN had the head of Planned Parenthood on immediately following the speech by that Retardlican troll.


                  Amazing.....a Retardlican caught IMMEDIATELY in a FUCKING LIE! ON NATION TV no less!

                  Who woulda thought?

                    Which will be right next to impossible once the shutdown happens. A few people my gal runs with have government jobs, and they've all been receiving e-mails for the last week or so warning them they may be furloughed. Not only will they have no job to go to, they won't be making a fucking cent either. Zero. Zilch. Nada. Nothing.

                    It's going to be interesting to see how the government gets away with leaving 800,000+ people to twist in the wind.

                      Well, they will almost certainly get paid retroactively, but that's little consolation to the folks that live paycheck to paycheck of course.

                          BULLSHIT...more liberal lies. Federal dollars help fund Planned Parenthood and they are the nation's leading abortion provider. Federal money shouldn't fund this.

                            KEY FACTS: Bipartisan Agreement on Spending Cuts to Support American Job Creation
                            Posted by Speaker Boehner Press Office on April 08, 2011

                            Just a short while ago, House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) announced a bipartisan agreement on historic spending cuts – the largest cuts in American history – to help create a better environment for private sector job growth. Watch Boehner’s announcement here:





                            You can read the joint statement by Speaker Boehner and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) here. Boehner said the agreement will “cut spending and keep our government open” – this agreement alone will cut hundreds of billions of dollars in spending over the next decade – and will “help create a better environment for job creators in our country.” Here are some key facts on the bipartisan agreement:

                            THE LARGEST SPENDING CUT IN AMERICAN HISTORY. The agreement will immediately cut $38.5 billion in federal spending – the largest spending cut in American history in terms of dollars – just months after President Obama asked Congress for a spending “freeze” that would mean zero cuts.

                            HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS IN SPENDING CUTS OVER THE NEXT DECADE. The agreement will cut hundreds of billions of dollars from the federal budget over the next decade – “real money,” as the Wall Street Journal editorial board recently noted.

                            OFFICIALLY ENDS THE “STIMULUS” SPENDING BINGE. The agreement begins to reverse the “stimulus” spending binge that began in 2009 – signaling the official end of a period of unprecedented government intervention that former Federal Reserve Board Chairman Alan Greenspan and other economists say hurt job creation in America by crowding out private investment.

                            SETS STAGE FOR TRILLIONS MORE IN SPENDING CUTS. Clears the way for congressional action on House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan’s budget – The Path to Prosperity – which cuts trillions in spending and offers a long-term blueprint for American job creation.

                            GUARANTEES SENATE VOTE ON REPEAL OF OBAMACARE. The agreement reached with Senate Democrats guarantees a Senate debate and vote on legislation that would repeal President Obama’s government takeover of health care in its entirety. The House passed such legislation in January as part of the Pledge to America.

                            NEW TOOLS IN THE FIGHT TO REPEAL OBAMACARE. The agreement will generate new tools for the fight to repeal Obamacare by requiring numerous studies that will force the Obama Administration to reveal the true impact of the law’s mandates, including a study of how individuals and families will see increased premiums as a result of certain Obamacare mandates; a full audit of all the waivers that the Obama Administration has given to firms and organizations – including unions - who can't meet the new annual coverage limits; a full audit of what's happening with the comparative effectiveness research funding that was in Obamacare and the president’s failed “stimulus” spending bill; and a report on all of the contractors who have been hired to implement the law and the costs to taxpayers of such contracts.

                            DENIES ADDITIONAL FUNDING TO THE IRS. The Obama administration has sought increased federal funding for the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) – money that could be used to hire additional agents to enforce the administration’s agenda on a variety of issues. This increased funding is denied in the agreement.

                            GUARANTEES SENATE VOTE & DEBATE ON DE-FUNDING PLANNED PARENTHOOD. The agreement with Senate Democrats guarantees a Senate debate and vote on legislation that would end federal funding for Planned Parenthood.

                            BANS TAXPAYER FUNDING OF ABORTION IN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. The agreement includes a complete ban on local and federal funding of abortion in the District of Columbia, applying the pro-life principles of the Hyde Amendment (“D.C. Hyde”).

                            MANDATORY AUDITS OF THE NEW JOB-CRUSHING BUREAUCRACY SET UP UNDER DODD-FRANK. The agreement subjects the so-called Consumer Financial Protection Bureau created by the job-destroying Dodd-Frank law to yearly audits by both the private sector and the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to monitor its impact on the economy, including its impact on jobs, by examining whether sound cost-benefit analyses are being used with rulemakings.

                              You mean the same Planned Parenthood that was founded by Prescott Bush and a few of his friends?

                                Planned Parenthood, founded by Margaret Sanger, didn't offer abortions when first founded.

                                Federal money should not be used to fund abortions.

                                By claiming conservatives want to hurt women's healthcare by defunding PP, the Democrat's are truly The Party of Fear and Ignorance.
