Boca

Good. That's great news.
The minority puts up a bill that fails too pass and they shut down the House of Representatives.
My hope is this revolt get's hot, very hot.

The party of the American people have mutinied will no longer be bullied by the lobbyist masters of the GOP.

Yes, but it's different when lefty does it. There will be no calculations of cost.
Spamature
President
What cost ? This is the house. How are there cost involved. The light bill maybe. Hell the GOP'ers are trying to override a veto. Something they can not do without Dems anyway. So if anyone is wasting time and money it's the GOP.

True. These guys have no salaries, no drivers, no supporting services, no staffs, etc.
This, they bring to us gratis.

Them maybe the GOtParty shouldn't waste time with there Obama hate by trying to override a veto when they have no chance at all in succeeding.
Exposing the GOP for the NRA fellating sock puppets they are is worth every politically educative penny spent tonight.

So, Spamature, does this mean you now retract your post,
"What cost ? This is the house. How are there cost involved. The light bill maybe. Hell the GOP'ers are trying to override a veto. Something they can not do without Dems anyway. So if anyone is wasting time and money it's the GOP."
Yes? You do retract this post...or no, you lack sufficient humility and decency to stand up?
Your call. Light bill? That's it, right?
Spamature
President
What cost ? Hell the janitors don't work in the dark cleaning the place and changing urinal cakes. The GOP wanted to take a vote they knew wouldn't pass. So even in the cost of lighting the floor right now it is on them not the Dems. Pretty sure their staffs are on salary so overtime is not a problem. Again "What cost ?"

10-4. Right on schedule.
Just once, I was hoping for a tiny glimpse of dappled light.
Thanks anyway.

Actually, the Dems are asking for a vote on bills. That's the opposite of shutting down the government. It's asking for government.
RickWA
The Pissant Snagglesooth
Yep. Conditional operation of government based on a desired agenda or outcome is different when lefty does it,
Thanks.

Actually, overtime is an issue. Have you forgotten Obama's executive order on new overtime rules?
Bugsy McGurk

It's not "different." Voting on bills is what legislatures are SUPPOSED to do. It has nothing to do with party.
Now go back to arguing with your imaginary friend "lefty."

Nope
They make too much.
The threshold value for overtime salary is currently $455 per week ($23,660 per year)
Starting in December 2016, the salary threshold to avoid paying overtime will move to $913 per week (an annual salary of $47,476). The Department of Labor (DOL) originally proposed a threshold of $970 per week ($50,440 annually), but the new rule reached a compromise based on the 40th percentile of income for salaried full-time workers in the region of the US with the lowest wages (currently the South).
The staff members in the house make more than the current threshold.
