This Won't Take Long

It includes some pretty tragic shit, but it doesn't take long to write comments on a bunch of pole smoking Republicans. Comments in italic blue. 

Congress.org presents:  MEGAVOTE, February 18, 2014, for Georgia's 13th Congressional District:

Recent Congressional Votes

• Senate: Debt Limit  Passage
• House: Debt Limit  Passage

Both chambers are in recess.
The Senate returns Monday, Feb. 24.
The House returns Tuesday, Feb. 25.

Recent Senate Votes:
Debt Limit  Passage Vote Agreed to (55-43, 2 Not Voting)
One day after the House voted to raise the U.S. Treasury's debt limit, the Senate finalized an extension of the limit through March 15, 2015. The final vote fell along party lines, with both independent Senators voting with the Democratic caucus to approve the motion to concur.
Sen. Saxby Chambliss voted  Not Voting
Sen. Johnny Isakson voted  NO
This crap was already decided in the House where the Republicans decided to take away the issue for the coming election. There was  no way the Democrats weren't all in for this thing and the Republican Senators had no chance. Preparing for upcoming election where the Republican leadership has already taken the position that budget conservatives, aka Tea Party types, are to be ignored. This behavior is going to bite some bottoms in the next elections.  Another thing that has occurred to me is that the Senate has been quiet on the accusations of IRS investigations of  playing politics with authority, who would find it surprising that the Republican leadership has given tacit approval by omission. The IRS action is un-American and the Senators stand around with their thumb up their asses because it helps them by impeding Republican dissent. 
The not-voting crap by Saxby Chambliss, wtf? 

Recent House Votes:
Debt Limit  Passage Vote Passed (221-201, 10 Not Voting)
The House narrowly passed an extension of the U.S. Treasury's temporary debt limit on Tuesday by agreeing to a previous Senate bill. The debt limit extension raised the debt limit through March 15, 2015. House members did not add on conditions to raising the debt limit or additional policy requirements to the Senate legislation.
Rep. David Scott voted Not Voting
Politics triumphs doing the right thing.
The not-voting crap by David Scott, unexpected but wtf?
