GOP Congress refuses to honor Seal Team 6 after Democratic Senate passes resolution 97-0.

They said they didnt have time for petty things like that. But they did find time to honor a courthouse in Texas by naming it after Bush.

4. I'm surprised they haven't tried to but funds aside
to figure out how to reanimate Reagan to lead their party again. Reagan was a terrible president and a crazy person, but I think if they ever did bring him back, even Reagan would be disgusted with the Republicans and probably join the Democratic party. :rofl:

5. You are not giving them enough credit.
I'm sure these same Republicans all have one of those cheap, made in China, Support Our Troops magnets on their taxpayer subsidized vehicles. See, they DO care.

6. So...
Some things were left out, why not print the entire truth?

Personally I think they should make an exception in this case, however not disclosing all the details pretty much makes you as bad as the GOP.

10. The GOP House adopted new rules at the beginning of the year which state ....
that there will no longer be commemorative resolutions,
the naming of post offices was listed as an exception in the new rule.
