Hey Senate - whatcha doing over there? Want to work on some bills soon? Maybe send some of those bills over to the House? Maybe the revenue bill that may NEED to pass before midnight?

Sounds like they almost didn’t appropriate enough funding for clothes pins so Dems could stomach eating this crap sandwich.

Oh Conserve - we should start a count on the number of Dems who later claim they didn’t know or didn’t support something they voted for.
