How shall we hold them responsible?



How about not pay them for their absence? Especially if Trump shuts it down. No pay until there is a resolution. I bet flights would be booked.

It's the 20th. Not Christmas or even the weekend of Christmas. If you had a job you'd be working through tomorrow in 95% of cases.



Yep, working all day tomorrow.

Someone has to pay for JuiceTerrys welfare

Believe it or not, it is against the law for them not to be paid AND the cannot refuse payment, even during a government shutdown...

Oh well. I guess the government gets shut down.

About damn time. Can we shut it down for more than a couple weeks this time?

Nah, that's not where they make their money. They make it taking bribes.

I’m on my way to putting in a 60 hour work week. The teachers aren’t even off yet. The stock market is sure as shite open. It’s not Christmas.


Pre-Zachary...the world doesn't even start to shut down until noon tomorrow...


And for the people that stay past noon, most are taking advantage of a quiet office to get some stuff done...

At this point, I'd be fine with it not reopening. It sucks.

Shut the government down and have them come back next week to vote. If they won't, shut it down until they do.


This. This is exactly how they are able to get away with this shite time and time again.

The amount of stupidity it takes to believe my comments were pro-gov is staggering, but sadly par for the course around here
