HOUSE REPUBLICAN WHIP
Mary Fallin
Oklahoma-5th, Republican
1432 Longworth HOB
Washington, DC 20515-3605
Phone: (202) 225-2132
Just spoke to her staff..she is still there on the house floor:)
I just called and said "There's a Republican revolt going on int the House Chamber and I wasn't seeing much coverage of it." I got a run around on it. Was told several times "There are no cameras on now. Cameras are not allowed." I objected, politely, that the story could still be covered.
He seemed mildly irritated that I would question that and asked if I wanted to talk to (name garbled) and I said yes. Got a phone tree that led to leaving a recorded message. I did...
"There's a Republican revolt going on in the House Chamber. I understand that the cameras are turned off. You can still cover the story. Thank you."
Hi, there - yes wasn’t it wonderful?
And it just took a few GOP Congressmen and women to make it so!
Then, of course, FReeperdom got involved - and - Drudge reported what was happening - and we have - a MOVEMENT!
The envirocommies are not pleased and considering their mighty money machine - will be pouring out the dollars to hush this up and shut it down.
But - freedom cannot be stopped.
That’s what this is about.
Economic survival and freedom for millions - something the Demonrats want squelched RIGHT NOW.
We also have to translate this good event into VOTES and Campaign $$ for the brave ones who took this stand because they will now - even more - becmoe targets of the green machine!
Thank you for that link - has anyone made this YouTube Video a headliner on its own thread?
If not, it should be.

Virginia Foxx who spoke is from North Carolina - District 5.
(sadly not my district)
She is FANTASTIC. She must be re-elected and will be targeted for defeat. All in NC and others around the country who support conservative causes must unite to support this terrific Congresswoman!
My post to Pelosi blog:
Why? You went on ‘The View’ and shared the the importance and power of the Speaker of the House.
However, your behavior on August 1st is abhorrent!
How dare you?
How dare you turn off the lights, mics and C-SPAN camera’s
How dare you order the Capital Hill police to shut Capital down at 4:30 pm?
Your behavior opposes this Democratic Republic we call the United States of America!
The only benefit to your outrageous behavior is you have exposed the ugly truth regarding the power-grid within the Democratic Party.
And, Speaker of the House... you have followed your orders only to your personal shame and shame upon the positon you hold.
I haver heard numbers of 100 million or so as a “sustainable” level.
Some of the plans aren’t working out quite right. The EU is on the verge of dissolving (seems that some are starting to remember the last two times this was tried it was by the point of a gun), and the NAU is running very behind.
So perhaps now is not as close as some had thought.
Thanks Arthur! I will see if I can get the repeat shows on the Streaming Audio site!
Those GOP Congressmen, including mine (Todd Platts from Pennsylvania’s 19th District, who turned around on the road and came back after he heard what was going on on the radio), did a great thing, and FR did its part whipping up the fire there.
However, I think that they made a tactical error by shutting down the protest and leaving at 5:00 p.m., instead of bringing in the mattresses and occupying the chamber until they did get the MSM’s attention. Didn’t Mike Pence say at one point that they weren’t going to leave until they got a vote? Now, his rhetoric looks somewhat hollow.
At the very least, they should have stayed there as long as they could, even if it provoked a confrontation with the Sergeant at Arms and the Capitol police. Imagine what it would have looked like if the police had actually came in, arrested the GOP congressmen for trespassing, and led them all out in handcuffs, for just demanding a vote for new drilling. It would have revealed Comrade Pelosi and her goons for the Communists that they really are.
Regardless, I’m very proud of what our folks did, both in the House and on this thread! It was truly a shining moment in FR history.
All I can say is that it’s about time somebody grew a pair. I commend these Congressmen for taking a stand by trying to show where are real problem lies. That being in the rat leadership in Congress who refuse to do right by the American people.
I came up with a blank on RagingDebate
Do you have a link??
Golly. I read all those posts too and saw a Freeper was headed up there to the Hill. And just as was stated, voila, he posted the account.
The first Undead Thread maxed out at 65K plus, I believe. Sionnsar, do you know the exact count?
As far as the democrats "hanging themselves:" if a tree falls in the forest does it make a sound? So few people are aware of and understand what really went on yesterday, that I predict there will be little or no impact. Believe me, I hope I'm wrong.
Excellent points.
I hope many agree and follow through.
Good idea.
I don’t know what FREEPER has a connection with him.
His staff, at least read the forum.
Perhaps you could start a thread with him in the title asking such a question.
I wish more people could read this. I mean John Q Public.
HMMMMMM.
Sobering, indeed.
I wonder . . .
factor in
the contention by many in diverse fields . . .that a super extinction level cataclysm approaches inexorably as some sort of 26 million or some such—I forget the number of years—cycle winds around again vis a vis the galactic center or some such . . .
IF ET’s or various ancient peoples [including the nearby Hopi’s evidently] have convinced the powers that be that virtually all the useless eaters are going to be extinguished anyway . . . that could sure render all us little people as less than ants in their eyes.
Add in the possible scenarios proffered to them that they’ll be saved in deep cities . . . or off world . . . why they could begin to act like Queen Nancy . . . and Scuba Teddy . . . and Teddy Turner . . . And Shrillery and Dillbo . . .
. . . just pondering.
That would be wonderful.
However, I suspect that they are smugly certain that the scheduled WWIII and/or the threat of ET as Ronald Reagan warned us about 5 times publicly . . . I’m sure they are CONFIDENT that such will scare however many are left alive after the war . . . scare all the serfs and slaves into the global government quite handily.
Nancy et al sometimes already sound like they consider it a fait accompli.
I am hoping we get more out of this than many of us may think.
Thank you for your comments. : )
Remember the letter that they sent to the Prez asking him to call a special session.
And did you see this?
Republicans Rebel Against Adjournment; Pelosi Turns Out Lights
Rep. Mike Pence (R.Ind.), who joined with fellow conservative Republican Reps. John Shadegg (Ariz.) and Ted Poe (Tex.) to keep the House open this afternoon, said that the President was out of town. However, the Hoosier lawmaker quickly added that “I spoke with a key aide and made it clear he should urge the President to call Congress back and deal with the energy crisis.” Pence would not say who the aide was, but noted that the response to his admonition was “very positive.”
No. I didn’t see that.
Very heartening. I pray he does exactly that post haste.
Thanks for the alert to that.
