    Republicans would not fund Zika prevention and research unless we also restricted abortion and defunded Obamacare. Then they went on vacation.

    Unbelievable… downright negligent.

      Reading up on this some more and found there’s a lot of story here and the statement above is not quite the case. Do some reading and get the whole story. There’s plenty of blame on both sides of the aisle.

      Hilliary would not protect national TOP SECRETS to protect American lives so as to protect herself from exposing criminal, corrupt activities being revealed to the American public through FOIA requests.

      Unbelievable….. downright criminal!

        Yogi,

        Again I’ve got a reading comprehension FAIL. I can’t see Hillary’s name anywhere it this article, yet somehow you need to bring her up.
        Did I miss something?

        Since you are so sure of a Trump victory, would you like to make a gentleman’s wager concerning the outcome?

        Naturally, this completely explains how the Zika virus spread in the US. How clever of you, Yogi Polar.

        There IS hundreds of millions of funds available to fight Zika, but it was unspent. Read the story.

    Maybe Congress thinks only pregnant women can get Zika virus? could explain the “back burner Attitude” they took on and then took off on Vacation. Just saying……

      This is hyperbole by Dems to discredit Republicans.

      CDC and other med orgs have protocols in place for this type of infectious disease.

      How’s the veteran’s healthcare system improvements progressing under Obama?

        The great part about this article is that Marco Rubio is trying to get some action and attention here. Let’s see, Trump is the RNC figurehead, followed by Prime Minister Cruz…where exactly did Marco finish. I’m pretty sure no one will listen to #8.

    Ask them to work? Really? Why ask such a dumb question of people paid to do a job? FIRE THEM ALL!

      Fire those responsible for the ACA! Oh, wait! Pelosi and Reid have already been fired when Republicans won the House AND Senate. All that’s left to do is fire the Dems from The White House on November 8, 2016.

    Agree with all. Let’s fire them all but if we aren’t going to do that, give them 4 weeks vacation and doc their pay if they don’t do the work they were voted in to do. They “skate” much too much.

      If you like your Dem control of The House and Senate, you can keep your…

      Oh, wait! Dems WERE ALREADY FIRED from control of Congressional Chambers, back in 2010 and 2014.

      The People have spoken, and will speak similarly on November 8, 2016.
