Yeah, I feel like this is a craptasm.
Sure, we are now halfway to preventing supposed economic Armageddon. The House of Representatives in rather divided fashion passed the crap sandwich that was worked out between the political leadership.
The vote was 269-161. Yet read between the lines and it looks like the Democrats were much more divided than the Republicans. But the reality is that is what happens when one produces something no one really likes.
What really is irritating is that this was a bad way to raise the debt ceiling and try to produce any kind of meaningful budget and yes, tax reform.
But it is where we are at.
The end result is that we as conservatives and Republicans need to be even more motivated to win more seats in both houses of congress. Yes, we need to increase the numbers in the House. And we need to take the senate as well. There are a lot more Democrat seats up next year as opposed to last year. And most important of all is we need to get a great candidate that can win the Republican nomination for president and become the next president.
We can not keep complaining or replaying the 2010 midterm elections. We can not think we will get much better than what has happened in this vote until we win more seats and the White House.
In the meantime, enjoy the craptasm that is the convoluted compromise.
