Ready for work and nowhere to go

They actually did it. Threw hundreds of thousands of people out of work to make sure millions of people won't get healthcare. I just went from having a big bonus and all my leave planned out through the end of the year to being out of work -- it's not just the Government that shuts when the Government shuts in this company town.

Yeah, they don't seem to understand what 'you lost the election' means. They think it means they still get everything they want. *shakes head*

The tea party was elected on a platform of contempt of congress, and the tea party constituency wants the government to smash. And the people elected by it have no loyalty to ephemerals like the *nation* when their own voters want something.
