"I can smell the booze wafting from members as they walk off the floor"


While voting to shut down the government Saturday night, apparently some of the House members weren't just drunk on power. From a Politico Congressional reporter:
And from a Buzzfeed reporter on Capitol Hill:
And before they even got drunk, they were already acting like drunken pigs:
[T]hey have added a “conscience clause” to the spending bill which takes away preventative care from women, which includes birth control.

Friday afternoon, Republican John Culberson from TX got huge applause from his colleagues when he compared the GOP’s effort to destroy Obamacare to the heroes of 9/11. Culberson compared the House Repubs to the passengers on United Flight 93 who overtook the terrorists and got control of the plane on 9/11. Yes, Seriously.
This is your government on drugs Tea.
