The Republican House of Representatives is strong and Joe Biden is Weak.  It's time to shut the government down and make the Democrats feel some real pain.  Either they cut spending, and do it drastically, or we shut everything down.  But, this time I want things to be different:

• Furlough government employees so they do not need to receive back pay for the time they didn't work.
• Don't bluff, give those Democrats the pain they've been begging for and make it last
• Cut the military budgets - they waste tons of money
• Eliminate each and every unnecessary government program
• Cut Medicare 25%
• Eliminate Medicaid
• Eliminate Food Stamps and any "free food" program
• Eliminate free phones
• Eliminate free housing.

That will be a good start to getting our government in a better place.  If they can't make this happen, keep it shut down for the next 2 years.

That's not a good cross-representation of America, is it.

Supposedly 4:00 PM ET today.   That is, if Joe Biden can actually attend the meeting.  The stupid **** is in really bad mental shape, I hear.  He may send Janet Yellen, and simply not appear.

It's after Joe Biden's 2nd nap and before sundowners kicks in.
