For sh**’s sake, they haven’t VOTED on it yet?!

Looks like they are preparing to start to begin to instigate the process that will allow them to consider thinking about how they will discuss it, once they do.

Let me know how it goes next year.

A report on the FNC web site says there are actually two votes and it should all be over by 5:15 EDT.

I guess it’s now a bipartisan resolution.

If nothing comes of F&F and holder goes the way of jon corzine, Mr. Speaker can dust off that resume.

EXACTLY. This doesn’t mean a damn thing. They only voted to debate to vote.

For cripes sake these people are impossible and scared of their shadows. Nothing but spinning wheels is going on.

Wait. This just in. Encouraging news. Issa has written yet another letter to the white hut saying he is going to now LAY upon the ground, hold his breath and flail his arms all at the same time if the white hut does not come clean and answer his questions.

Oh my! What a reckless abandonment of caution and restraint! For his next act he is going to get really really angry.

I thought that idiot was part of the national association of liberal black people caucus and that they were going to walk out.

Hell, they can’t even tell the truth about not telling the truth.

We should demand an immediate Congressional Oversight/ criminal investigation into Kagan for not Recusing herself in Obamacare. This decision should be vacated owing to Kagan's conflict of interest in sitting on the case while holding a conflict of interest. If found guilty by the House Investigation she should be impeached and removed from the bench, and sent to jail for violating the law. The Obamacare could then be appealed to SCOTUS again since the original decision must be vacated owing to Kagan's involvment. Maybe Darell Issa could take up this investigation along with the Fast and Furious investigation.

"As solicitor general of the United States, Justice Elena Kagan served as the head of an office responsible for formulating the Obama administration’s legal defense of its domestic agenda priority — Obamacare. "

"According to Section 455(b)(3) of Title 28 of the U.S. Code, justices must disqualify themselves in cases where they have “served in governmental employment and in such capacity participated as counsel, adviser, or material witness concerning the proceeding or expressed an opinion concerning the merits of the particular case or controversy.” In United States v. Gipson, the Tenth Circuit held that judges must recuse themselves if they have “previously taken a part, albeit small, in the investigation, preparation, or prosecution of a case.” Other courts have suggested that, merely by virtue of a lawyer’s position as the head of an office during the preparation of a case, he or she is disqualified to sit as a judge on that case."

"Previously undisclosed e-mails that the Justice Department has released pursuant to court order demonstrate Kagan’s direct involvement in the administration’s defense of the president’s health law from the very beginning. "

They need to IMPEACH Obama and Holder for Fast/Furious...as they are directly aiding the Mexican Drug Cartels.

I want everyone on record whether they support America or Obama/Mexican Drug Cartels.

Does anyone know if the Congressional RACIST Caucus did as announced -- and walk out on these proceedings against their skin-color brother?

It would be a funny joke wouldn’t it if it were not so true and sad.

What a dirty crying shame we have come to this.

You gotta be kidding! A resolution to draft a resolution to vote on a resolution that states resolutely that the resolution is resolute.

Congress is a freakin joke. Kick all the bums out.

Their thinking may be that if they can put it off until Zero loses, BALLS might not be necessary after all. They certainly wouldn’t know where to track any down.
