All the leadership wants is for fellow Republicans to “get their asses in line” and vote with the leadership. Its the Boehner way of leading.
I can’t find an iota of sympathy for these critics of the Leadership since they put them in the leadership knowing they weren’t communicators.
Screw that. I’m insisting on some plank-walking, and while we’re at it, keep the rope and yard-arms warmed up because we’re going to need them too.
Enough is enough of their backstabbing us at every turn.
That is one of the myriad ways we can disobey God’s plan, short of creating a viable third party.
God promises us the resources we need to exalt His name. Dumping some resource on the floor because we had a grudge does not honor Him.
I be thinkin’ Ms. Hooper, the author of this article’s source is her five year old kid.
Angry constituents demand better Republicans.
Sure, I know we are stuck with the Republican party we have, and not the one we want. There are a few stars, to be sure, but they are a minority even within the ?Republicans? in the House, and for sure, within the Senate.
The opposition Republicans have an opportunity to go and be the sufficiently large majority to significantly stall out the Current Regime now squatting in the White Hut until January 2017. The first priority now should be to defund it, not defend it, when it comes to the “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010”. About the only part of that atrocity that remotely resembles fact and reality is the date of passage. Patients are not protected in any realistic way, and the care offered is not sustainable in any fiscally defensible manner.
Now, not that I would disagree with raising a third party, but we can’t do it out of ego. We need to read the spiritual signs that this is propitious.
Here is where, unfortunately, the Dems are smarter than Repubs (I hate saying that, but it needs saying). Dems would force the vote and then use it as propaganda against the Repubs. This is what the Repubs should do. Take the vote, let it be voted down by the Dems in the Senate and use it against them in the 2014 elections.
Damn right we're angry.
Knowing the history of such boondoggles, way back then I prognosticated that it would turn out to have been cheaper if the welfare set had simply had been issued health care plans while leaving the rest of the system alone.
Well We The People need a good stiff lesson in Not Being God. The good Lord has let this happen for a purpose. He did not go off on a bender. He did not go on vacation. We have a Challenge here, but a Challenge which can be eminently met with restored faith. IF we choose to let our faith be restored.
It’s true, Republicans could show themselves as having been prescient here when this dead skunk finally does rot into little bitty pieces.
Fixed.
When are these assclown Republican "leaders" going to understand that the only people who even notice a "government shutdown" are the moochers and parasites (AKA, "the Democrat party base") who suddenly find their snouts hitting the dry bottom of the public trough?
SHUT IT DOWN! Do whatever is necessary to save America from communist health care.
I like the story of St. Augustine walking on the beach and encountering an angel.
It really depicts the folly of man trying to understand the mind of God.
Nuff said on religious matters, that's is definitely a to each his own thing, but trying to do right as best as we can in life.
No, we cannot afford to treat faith as to each his own.
That’s the kind of insipid, disjointed spiritual condition that helped Satan pick America apart.
We do not have to agree on every single solitary thing to get some good solid basics of a grace faith reaffirmed across most of society. And I mean a grace faith.
“Boehner is freaking useless...”
Useless? Are you kidding?
He’s about the best all around Speaker the Democrats could have hoped for. It would have been much more difficult to scroo us over if someone else was in there.
Well I went and googled it about the story (What hath God wrought? among other things, the internet). What was being purported as impossible to grasp was all the details of the holy Trinity.
That doesn’t mean we cannot grasp enough of the holy Trinity in order to be extremely useful even here on earth. God does not smile at a false modesty, which is laziness.
Don’t Call Them Moderates, but Centrist Republicans Are Emerging in the House

EXCERPT
Pinning down this group’s actual membership—or even identifying members under one umbrella—can be difficult, in part because of the political climate. In some Republican circles, for example, being labeled as a moderate can now be problematic. Yet one segment met last week in the basement of the U.S. Capitol for the reorganizational meeting of the “Tuesday Group,” a gathering of fiscal conservatives who are traditionally more moderate than many of their GOP counterparts on social issues.
About 20 GOP lawmakers attended the initial meeting, during which they elected three cochairs: Reps. Charlie Dent of Pennsylvania, Adam Kinzinger of Illinois, and Erik Paulsen of Minnesota.
I meant that each of us should try and get right with the Lord each day.
That will be different for each of us because we are unique individuals, but that doesn't stop us from doing right.
Lots of not doing basic *Right* going on in the country today.
My sincere feeling is that we had better begin helping ourselves a little if we want the Lord to help us.
That has to come from ourselves individually, not from a minister, priest or even the pope, but from our own hearts.
Definitely nuff said on this by me.
Many of these men were for getting rid of Obamacare before they were elected — then told us the truth after they were elected.
