With the exception of being willing to accept the amendment where you cant get Emergency Assistance if you are a tax cheater or if youve passed away, with the exception of a funeral benefit i really object to the coburn amendment.

Youre not that pent up. Ive been giving you questions lately. Is the strategy working and are the Media Holding the president accountable .
