8. Just My Humble Opinion - emojis are way too overused. Some comments are just pictographs

with no thoughtful comment. (Mine might also be classified as such.)

6. The chyrons on CNN & MSNOW said exactly that

I was shocked, usually it's "Congress blocks...." or "Congress fails to approve...."

For once, they actually put the blame where it belongs - Republicons (the source of nearly all our problems)

7. Why dont they just vote total power to Trump and disband?

Lets stop pretending to be a functional democracy

"When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty – to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy.”

9. The headline will read...

Congress block's war powers vote

Because "both party's are the same"

[FoxNewsSucks]

10. So far, when mentioned, CNN & MSNOW have

specified "Republicans blocked..."
