Straining at a gnat to deep-throat a camel.

I hate to say it, but really. As important as defeating mandatory Medicaid is, if we're overrun by Islamofacists, it'll be a bit of a moot point.

At least the funding for the soldiers actually passed, despite the near-treasonous attempts by the Republican party to use the war funding bill to force delay on the mandatory Medicaid bill until after Christmas. Stupid bastards--if they'd succeeded, the Democrats wouldn't have been the only ones at fault for murdering soldiers.
