YES! Form a hyper rigid caucus and stick to your guns. NOTHING passes the House without the orgs. approval. It's going to take about 60 members to make it bombproof. Genius. Honking my horn as if I am at a firework display's conclusion. Honk! Honk! Honk! Beep! Beep! Beep! SAVE AMERICA! It's worth it! And a Howard Dean for good measure- YYYEEEAAARRRGGGHHH!!!
We need to be praying about this group of men...and their meetings...that God Himself will lead them as He did the Founders of our country.
The Founders DID, indeed, fight against King George in their state parliaments for decades before they revolted.
A group (I’m sure the media will call it ‘a cabal’) such as this is the correct parliamentary and constitutional response.
Besides being ready to offer Leadership candidates, including Chairmen, they will have the ability to reject Rules on floor votes that don’t reflect good judgement and/or limit admendments- this is a powerful tactic we non-politicians don’t appreciate!
In 2016 the Democrats will (with a presidential year turnout) recapture many of the ‘purple’ district seats that went Republican this year and Boehner’s cabal will be in a desperate strait, IF conservatives are ready to challenge him.
