I don't see how it is in the gop's interest to say no to any infrastructure deal, and that appears to be where they are headed.

Republicans signal trouble ahead of Wednesday test vote on infrastructure

Find a poison pill in whatever deal they come up with. And even now Republicans in Ill are looking to improve the El with funding.

I lean towards not liking "human infrstructure" and building health care sites, but we really are talking about fixing broken interstate bridges and traditional infrastructure. The only way the dems can win is if people really think the gop is against most everything and don't want to make life better, or help the economy. I won't say Portman is a lying sack of shit, but even if he has good intentions, this seems another case Republicans not being able to deliver a pizza, as they were on a debt deal back in Obama's second term.

Is it being paid for? If not I can see a lot of reasons for someone to be against it.

Maybe Democrats shouldn't have tried to sneak in the clause granting amnesty to illegals.

Click on your link and the first paragraph states: "unless they see the text of the legislation and the two parties can agree on how to pay for the plan."

Frankly, that doesn't seem unreasonable at all of a request by the GOP. It seems rather odd to me that the Dems wouldn't agree to you know, share the text of what they expect the GOP to vote for.

Focus on the base only, keep them angry and paranoid, fuck everybody else, hope they clean the Dems' clock on turnout. That's the strategy going forward. It could work.

Mostly cutting their nose to spite their face for political points.

that had nothing to do with the bipartisan effort, but thank you for providing evidence that the gop as a whole wants to kill any bipartisan effort.

But I really don't get it. Both of Miss's gop senators proposed using some of the bipartisan funds to fix failing water systems throughout the state.

You "infrastructure deal" is a sham.....Orwellian language at its finest.

WTF are you talking about. LOL

 

[Polishprince]

When President Trump tried to fix the Infrastructure, Chuck and Nancy told him "no way, we are going for impeachment instead"

What's good for the goose should be good for the gander, no?

In just 3 1/2 years, Trump may well be back in. At that time, we'll be ready for Infrastructure

Let's see if the left is capable of providing a bill that addresses our infrastructure only without
slipping in partisan leftist causes.

Tell them to put up a clean bill.

 

[TemplarKormac]

One day, a bridge somewhere will collapse, with or without innocent drivers or pedestrians. Possibly killing people or doing damage.

Then the focus will be on actual infrastructure.

But liberals will insist upon making up definitions of our infrastructure rather than addressing it.

Oh, and how do we pay for it? With whose money?

Does spending more while in debt not terrify either side? Or do we want to go broke?

 

[Oddball]

WTF are you talking about. LOL

I'm talking about the fake "infrastructure deal" that you're peddling. which might have something around 15% of the total bill dedicated to real infrastructure.

"Slipping in"?....Easly 2/3 of that sham is moonbat wish list items.

Bingo!

It WAS a clean bill until the gop took out the agreed upon pay for with IRS enforcement. THAT'S THE POINT FOF FUICKS SAKE. jesus, try reading an OP

 

[bendog]

That's not in the bipartsan bill, never was.

But again thank you for supporting my OP's suspicion that the gop was never sincere about a bipartisan bill.

Solving simple poverty can be accomplished through the entitlement to equal protection of our at-will employment laws for unemployment compensation in our at-will employment States. Once that is accomplished the amount for unemployment compensation should include the cost of healthcare (premiums). Thus, even the unemployed would have capital recourse to healthcare. And, we should also have no homeless problem.
