The public promise to vote on DACA by February 8 is a pretty good outcome for Democrats in a midterm election year (particularly with many Republicans nervous about a huge swing in this year’s midterms).

I felt the exact same way. My Senators (Stabenow and Peters, MI) voting for this signals that there is a plan in place. They are died-in-the-wool labor-loving Democrats that have backed immigration protections their whole careers.
CHIP is funded, WH is out of the picture, and Feb 8 deadline is all about DACA. It’s not as grim as people are making it out to be.
I agree that some of the yes votes are really interesting. Although I can’t make sense of Tester’s no vote.
Now that I’ve heard about the CHIP thing, I’m changing my mind. Haven’t we improved our position now that CHIP is off the table? Aren’t we ahead of where we were 3 weeks ago? Didn’t we just get a bunch of hostages back for only three days of shutdown?

These are the 33 Democrats who probably think Lucy will let Charlie Brown finally kick that football too.
He did say he’s a Cowboys fan.
That was an unexpected ending.
It’s the matchup that Trump’s America deserves.
No fucking way.
I hope Donovan McNabb pukes again.
And doing other things.
Pats vs Eagles again. Couldn’t have happened to nicer fan bases.
I like the idea that our morality is shifting away from this, because even as a man, I dislike the notion that sex is predicated on overcoming a woman’s resistance. This is an actual conversation I’ve had:
Women are cast as the moral backbone of the society, so they become the custodians of sex. It’s men’s to take and women’s to keep. A woman’s worth is tied to how fiercely she guards it, so boys are conditioned to think ‘good girls’ say no and they are the ones worth pursuing. Her worth increases the more they have to…
The important litmus test when running for high office isn’t “are you rich?”
