See if you can keep track of how many times CNN's Erin Burnett slams the GOP in this interview with Rand Paul
◼ RAND PAUL CALLS OUT CNN ANCHOR AFTER SHE DECLARES OBAMACARE A GOP ‘OBSESSION’ AND ASKS WHY THIS OFFER FROM DEMOCRATS ISN’T ‘ENOUGH’ - The Blaze
Paul, calling out the CNN host in a very respectful way, responded by explaining why government is “so messed up.” He also reminded her that Congress controls the “power of the purse.”
He said government shut down because “we aren’t doing appropriations bills.” If Sen. Reid had “done his job,” he would have brought a number of appropriations bills to the floor and passed them to fund more of the government during the partial shutdown.
“Their intransigence really is keeping the government shut down,” Paul said.
