And the House walked the eff out of there today on vacation for a month, leaving 4,000 FAA employees "furloughed" with no pay and no resolution, because our House couldn't get it's freaking act together in the past two weeks. The House had it's work week changed this Congress by Speaker Boehner, to a 4-day work week, with two weeks on, one week off. I've had it with most of them.

Yesterday the House went home leaving 4,000 FAA employees, and 90,000 civilian contractors unemployed. I hope the Senate did something today day before they left, but I don't know if they can do it without the House. I give Speaker Boehner credit for adding 94,000 to the unemployed just yesterday, by literally simply ignoring them and not being able to multi-task. Yay, debt ceiling! While 94,000 wish they had paycheck this week. Oh, but the House has it's month vacation. These current building projects - runways, safety improvements - may not get finished by this winter now, either. But hey, the House is tired from all it's arguing over nothing - they cut out of Washington before the Senate voted this morning. That's a rotten, bald exposure of how important this whole debt-ceiling-fake-dog-and-pony-show-created false "disaster" was, while real Americans are idle, furloughed, while the House lays back. Disgusting. And if the media in this country had any journalistic integrity or balls, they'd be mentioned every single night on the evening news, "Day 14 of the FAA furlough, Congress won't be back for another three weeks ... " and interviewing live every FAA and private construction employee they can.

And we also have those 4,000 supervisors and 90,000 contractors who had to walk away from construction projects in progress (runways, safety) just abandoning them in the middle. Makes it fun for the airports, huh? Makes it even more fun if the projects are not finished and have to be held over? And how about that $30 million a day in the FAA fees we are NOT COLLECTING. The airlines, by the way, have raised their own fees to keep fares the same and are currently gouging the customers by taking those FAA fees for themselves. So a good days work by our current Congress: 94,000 people laid off, millions being lost daily in revenue, projects delayed and made more expensive, safety of public at risk without the dedication of these employees over money. And Congress went on vacation and left these people hanging. Yay! What complete fecking idiots. I cannot wait until 2012.
