... provide another penny in stimulus to people?"
Illinois senator Dick Durbin said this this morning on Morning Joe. He said McConnell cannot get anything thru the senate because of those 20 senators who will not vote for another penny.
Those 20 must be hounded, humiliated, and shamed into having a speck of humanity and sympathy.

(54,447 posts)I think they pass numbers around when they get a donation of $10 or more. Actually, I probably get the calls year-round, and don't notice them, because my US number is turned off when I'm in Europe, which is pretty much always. The only reason I picked up Jon's call is because the area code was the same as a Georgia cell phone that a friend of mine has in Atlanta, and I picked up right away after seeing just the area code.

(16,192 posts)reason presented as to why those 20 would do that. Could it have something to do with the FBI building or F 35s being included in the bill?
I'm getting confused and think we need a "clean" bill on the funding for citizens.
