    A wee or more ago Pelosi came up with a Chinese virus bill that had a whole bunch of left wing pork in it, including money for the baby killers at Planned Parenthood. Thankfully it got shot down.

    Then in the last few days a bipartisan bill was put to Congress. It would get money to people out of work and hurting other wise. But both Pelosi an Schumer shot it down. So--------NO MONEY for people that need it. What do democrats that were counting on that money think of those two now?

    Now again Pelosi say she has come up with "her" bill to provide money. Will it again be filled with left wing pork? If it is, it too will have to be shot down. And of course people will be left again with empty wallets.

    I guess the bottom line question is--------------are democrats getting tired of Pelosi and Schumer?

    Are you referring to the bill that had a procedural vote of 47/47? Which obviously falls short of the the 60 votes needed to move forward. Are you referring to THAT bill? How did Pelosi and Schumer "shoot" given that it was voted on?

    Left wing pork and right wing pork - both sides have their share - just depends on who you want to get the most money in the end.

    Groupthink mentality. Meaning those who hold office vote along party lines in accordance with what the leaders dictate, rather than in the best interest of either the country, or their voting constituents.

    Oh------------and before some snowf**** gets up tight about calling it the Chinese virus instead of COVID-19, do you know what COVID- 19 stands for? Chinese Originated Viral Infectous Disease from the year 2019.

    COVID-19

    Leftist news is spinning this as Republicans not willing to "compromise" on the pork that they admit is in these bills that is entirely unnecessary. The left wing punditry are to a person applauding the actions of Pelosi who as they say. is taking advantage of a once in a generation opportunity.....

    These are the folks that end up face down on a plank under a heavy iron cutting blade....

    Nope. Incorrect, as usual.

    COVID-19 stands for Corona Virus Disease 2019.

    This is a time for absolute practicality and zero ideology.

    Pelosi and Schumer want Trump to lose in November.
    Everything they do is a means to that end.

    Sorry, was being sarcastic. Liberals will find offense at any perceived slight these days. so they probably. as noted above will offer a different meaning for the acronym that doesn't include the country of origin.

    I imagine that China being the number one financial backer of the WHO might have had something to do with that... just sayin...

    Ideology has a lot to do with it. Republican ideology says everyone for themselves. Democratic ideology says we are all in this together.

    Or the correct meaning based on WHO. We are all aware of where it started from. I don't believe anyone has denied that.

    COVID-19 is the name given by the World Health Organization (WHO) on February 11, 2020 for the disease caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV2. It started in Wuhan, China in late 2019 and has since spread worldwide. COVID-19 is an acronym that stands for coronavirus disease of 2019.

    Everyone above the theoretical limit of what Trump supporters are want Trump gone. The Corona virus is just another example of his overwhelming ignorance and incompetence.

    LOL, this isn't a competition. The fact that the WHO showed that much deference to China seems remarkable... The Wuhan flu. as it should be known, probably made the Chinese info ministry too unsettled... Tell you what. You can call it whatever makes you less squeamish. When I see you chime in on the US bioweapon threads Ill remind you of your current position here...

    Thank you for agreeing that Schumer and Pelosi are acting to remove Trump,. not to help those affected the Coronavirus.
