If Congress ever allowed proxy votes then most of its members wouldn’t even show up to do their jobs.

Are you claiming democrats do their jobs when they show up?

Is it the Leader’s discretion? If they’re following Robert’s Rules (I recall the House and Senate have their own rules - I’m not sure what the party caucuses do), proxy votes are allowed only when the bylaws specifically permit them.

Well, if they allowed it for her, every queer democrat would try the same excuse, he would say, I can’t be there, I’m preggy.

But, of course, they are never pregnant if they are true queers.

(from the article):"Her letter was read during a closed-door Democratic Caucus meeting on Thursday.
But objections were raised, and the request was denied, with opponents including Democratic Steering
and Police Committee cochair Rosa DeLauro of Connecticut and Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi"

THis clearly demonstrates that the DumboCrats OWN the WAR ON WOMEN - .. and they practice it, moreso than anyone else !

Go look it up. I don’t agree with her politics but I respect her service and sacrifice, words that are not even in Obama’s vocabulary.

Obama the alien was born somewhere around or about in the Far East or Middle East or East Africa or whatever East... take your pick.

Well, Sheriff Arpaio’s investigator Mike Zullo said about a month ago while being interviewed by a KHOW radio personality who asked him if he “had the bomb” that would blow up Obama’s notorious hidden past.

Zullo exclaimed, ‘Yes, we got the bomb’.

Arpaio and Zullo are in the batter’s box that we should hear something from them sometime in next 90 days with their Obama hearing.

It’s now batter up.

Ms. Duckworth might never leave the Democrat Party, but they are certainly leaving her!

She’s a disgrace for using her injuries to win votes from fools. And her horrible record in the Congress more than outdoes any good she may have done in the military.

And now reportedly the ***** wants to move on up to the Senate. PUKE.
