Normal Legislative practice:
Vote for this must pass bill even though we’ve loaded it with pork barrel spending and changed a few bits of unrelated legislation into it. You’ll hurt the country worse if it doesn’t pass.
Tea Party terrorism:
Vote for this continuing resolution to fund the government while we change/defund the Affordable Care Act.
See the difference?
Me neither.

I am scratching my head too. There is a disconnect with me and DC these days.
I’m for storming the barricades with Jezzy and some seabees.
Washington DC is it’s own little island – afloat in a great sea of other people’s money.
