re: #184 Targetpractice

Yeah, that was an actual amendment to the Senate’s version of the Continuing Resolution, a bill that would take money from foreign aid to Egypt just to start up the White House tours again.

In fact, the long list of amendments proposed to the CR pretty much read as a laundry list of Senate Republicans trying to undo those portions of the sequester that are directly biting them in the ass.

That explains all the wingnut Tweets which compare the apple of “Foreign Aid to Countries We Don’t Like” to the orange of “Stuff We Think The Government Should Continue to Pay For.”

Also, the constant complaining about “OBAMA’S GOLF & VACATIONS!!!111!!” when Bill Clinton and Ike Eisenhower played way way more golf. But that is only because wingnuts think the only thing Obama should be doing on a golf course is carrying someone else’s clubs.
