And you KNOW that a lot of those 199 votes “against” where CYA votes where they knew it was going to pass anyway.
It gives a lie to why the GOP should remain in control of the House. The GOP has the votes to stop a clean version but would rather provide the votes needed by the Dems to pass it. And they think this will help them with the base?
And that is the absolute truth.
Only ten GOP House members had the guts to oppose Boehner’s leadership at the beginning of this session.
They are the only ones I would call real conservatives and deserving of re-election this year.
