By defeating the Speaker tonight, the GOP delegation in the House gave him the blank check to cut lousy deals with the lousiest President of all times that will pass with Democratic votes. Mark this day. It leads to Democratic control of the House in 2014 at worst or significantly reduced (bare) majority for the GOP.
This is the most suicidal political outcome I have ever seen. Good luck!
Gohmert is fine; so is Issa.
If the Senate won’t even vote on Plan B and even if they did and it passed, Obama has said he would veto it, what was the purpose in even bringing it up?
Why not just bring Plan A up for a vote? It would face a similar fate, but at least it would PASS the House. This maneuver just makes Boehner look weak.
The public is simple and saw only Boner defending the 1%. We need a Speaker that can express his way out of a paper bag. ............Bye, bye Boner.
