To 31 - You are very dramatic. Perhaps a session or two at Marcus Bachmann’s clinic might help you cope.

Oh, I also have heard West’s explanation for capitulating. Perhaps being so gung-ho he is just used to breaking things. Because anyone with a scintilla of “gravitas” would know that when you’ve an out of control debt that the logical solution is to reduce spending.

IMO you guys are all way too anxious to declare the 22 Naysayers “heroes” and everyone else wrong. Time will tell.

Criticize all you want, but don’t insult the man. That’s all.

Seems like it’s mighty hard for you to stop being a jerk.

I said it was based on my observation - there were 6 or 8 Republicans who had not voted when the yes vote reached 218. All the remaining Republican votes were "no". It may have been coincidence, but I don't think so.

However, there is a story on three of them at: http://politics.blogs.foxnews.com/2011/07/29/house-approves-boehner-bill-barely

Actually it was only 18 that really voted against the bill. 4 were able to change their yes votes to no when they saw their votes were not needed to pass the bill.

thanks for that information. It makes me think differently about Gowdy and Scott who I praised.

So that is your conscience vote to continue on this spiral out of control budget mess we are in? By the way it was compromise that got us into this situation with the flip flopper Moderates in congress and the White House. I say shelve both pieces of legislation and don’t raise the debt limit then we will be forced into cuts. We should give the Democrats what they want a limited government shutdown no compromise. Take no prisoners!!!!
