" Replugs...B L I N K " @ the 11th Hour, More GOP Headaches coming to a RED State near you !

"The White House communications team had three weeks to find 10-15 people who’ve actually enrolled in O-Care via Healthcare.gov to serve as human props for an Obama press conference on this subject. Three weeks. And yet, according to the WH’s own mini-biographies of the people invited to the Rose Garden today, just … three have successfully registered so far. Last week, Bob Laszewski estimated that no more than 20,000 people had managed to enroll in the site’s first 14 days or so online. If the White House had this much trouble finding a dozen or so for one of O’s biggest photo ops this year, I’ve got to wonder if the real number’s significantly less than that."

I do not think the business that lost money will be so for giving. Besides the TP is going to try and pull this stunt again in Jan. Boehner said he will not let it happen. The GOP is going to tear it's self apart. The TP fringe is going to scream and end up taking votes from moderate conservatives. The TP planned this shut down since July and I belive you are wrong about this being a distant memory. The TP will be bragging about this for some time to come. It caters to their base. They will remind the country of what they did.

The news has been full of an estimate by Standard & Poor's that the U.S. economy suffered a loss of $24 billion due to the government shutdown. Interestingly, the reports contain few if any details of where those losses came from and the Standard & Poor's website does not seem to have any report backing up the figure either. I have found some of the suggested losses and they are all untrue. In reality, there will be no economic loss to the economy from the government shutdown.

Purported losses include missed wages by federal employees and contractors, the value of lost government services, and lost travel spending. Some of these losses did actually happen, but any losses in one part of the economy will be offset by gains somewhere else.

For all the tourist sites that lost money and visitors during the shutdown, there is a business somewhere that received or will receive more business than normal. People who cancelled trips to D.C., national parks, or other sites may instead have taken a trip somewhere else. Business owners in those substitute locations become winners due to the shutdown. Alternatively, people may have stayed home and spent the money designated for their trip at local restaurants, movie theaters, and shops, creating gains in those businesses.

Unless your one of these peeps !


"Some furloughed federal workers may double dip!"

"Some fortunate federal employees will likely get paid twice for not working this month."

A year from now, people are going to be bombarded with images of the Barrycades, denial of military death payments, and Harry Reid saying no to funding the NIH.

The best the Dems can try to do is say it wasn't their fault, but most people aren't as dumb as NHBB wants them to be.

The fact is the tea party held their ground and didn't cave. That's respectable. As more and more young Obama voters start seeing the bill for Obamacare, you can expect to see more and more eyes to open, and more people will start questioning just what they've been backing for the last six years...

You know Eric,.....I can't REMEMBER the last F'n time YOU were Right about ANYTHING ! ! ! !

Your 'boys" will NEVER take control of the Senate any D E C A D E soon,.....I'll be loooong DEAD, before you asss-holes ever sit in'1600, and the RED States getting red'r via the tea party, will never get big enough to stop the handful of moderate northern house members to effect ANY major GOP change.
JESUS, after all these years, I'd of thought you would have remembered the (R) Olympia Snowe/Susan Collins/Arlen Specter syndrome of years past (YES they were Senators) but nothings changed,...I repeat....."H E L L O ERIC" nothings changed.
As long as you've got well respected (R) house members like Peter King (NY) calling the TP/CRUZ...LUNATICS,.......you guys are F ............ED. Your just too dam proud to admit it.

For shiits and giggles,...while EVERYONE here on the 'cooler is WATCHING (YOU), tell us which blue or purple state is going to turn RED.
And,
Even if Obamacare pisses-off young people, it wont be enough to make them vote Republican, especiall with the F'd-up views the GOP will be spewing.
You CLOWNS have NO ONE....NOTHING in the Bull-Pen,.....your party is an EMPTY Tank.
SHIIT, your savior Rubio, headed for the "Conservative hills"..so F'n FAST, Radar couldn't track him.

Todays GOP(especially with the Tea-POTTY) is an....E M P T Y....S U I T, and YOU know it !

F....the GOP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wonder how the young people are enjoying the BaRack-O-Care fiasco and if they'll enjoy having one quarter of their paycheck disappering into BaRacks healthcare coffer's!

Yeah, I'm sure they'll all remember that during the next vote !..............Brahahaw.....

Just like they went running to the Just Ain't Right about $5 a gallon gas and the 2011 Depression.
