House "Rules" - they ARE the House, dammit. We sent them there to play by "new rules" not continue to act like sissies that they seem happy to be (for the MSM, naturally!)

If Boehner can't seem to really the troops to make this happen, then he needs another job.

Impossible huh? Come on Michelle, let’s see you do the impossible.

Nobody should sell her short (nor Steve King for that matter).

House Appropriations Committee Chairman Hal Rogers (R-KY) tells his colleagues that it is impossible to "defund" the $105 billion

Hopefully the good people in this bums district send him the message that it is impossible to vote for his sorry ass anymore. What is this crap, the democraps can deem something passed but the damn republicans cannot remove it. BS.

Impossible? I really find it hard to believe that. Difficult, maybe. Politically inexpedient for the leadership, probably. But impossible? I’m not buying it.

If nothing else, it certainly can’t be impossible to try to defund it. Now is not the time to be timid. Go for it, dagnabbit. Go for it before the thing spreads its roots and become so entrenched in government it really does become impossible to repeal.

“And that is EXACTLY why I think Trump should be POTUS.”

Maybe. I heard him and he sounded pretty sharp. I had thought he was just another nerd like Steve Forbes...ready to solve the Arab/Israeli conflict with a flat tax, or something. Maybe he is better.

That's nonsense. Congresses can't bind future Congresses in this way.

ARTICLE ONE - Section 5:

Each House may determine the rules of its proceedings, punish its members for disorderly behavior, and, with the concurrence of two thirds, expel a member

I don’t think he bashed her, just reported what she said and her CYA with the line of “It’s the last time I use Obama’s teleprompter”.

But C’mon everyone knows that was at the Polo grounds in 1951.

If the stinking Repubs do not defund DeathCare this year, we need to find a party that will. Scum.

Ill say it again:

Can we organize and not pay our taxes? Is it that hard? I don’t know bout you guys but as a small business owner I get HAMMERED in my quarterly taxes. Writing out a large check just sucks the wind out of my sails. Am I alone here? If millions of us who own small businesses refused to pay what could the govt do to us? Put millions of us in jail? I don’t think so......

“DO NOTHING AND YOU DESERVE IT!’

I hear you. We are spinning our wheels trying to change things within the confines of a broken system.

Shouldn’t we defund it to see what we missed out on?
