27 more votes needed. Let’s see who joins the party, turning a drip into a flood.

Glad to see another person speaking out against bohner. I didn’t read any threads about the hundreds of rallys across the US that were supposed to have happened today with the message of getting rid of Bohner. Did this happen?

RE:”No need for an alternative, LMAO.”

Seems to have been the talk radio conventional wisdom plan for while.

In this case it definitely wont work.

Same with GOP primaries. No alternative=no chance of winning.

Yee haw yo ho!

[Impy]

Nothin’ from nothin’ leaves nothin’, you gotta have somethin’.

[VerySadAmerican]

I disagree. I beleive the rinos would prefer Pelosi over a conservative. They will NEVER vote for a conservative. They’ll Pelosi have it then go around blaming the conservatives.

[OneWingedShark]

If he becomes Speaker with Dem votes, the charade of the Uniparty will be over. I don’t think he wants to open that particular Pandora’s Box.

It's only hanging on by tatters:

1. the ObamaCare debacle certainly indicated the uniparty
   (i.e. letting the Democrats pass it, then Republicans refusing to not fund it)
2. Fast & Furious
   (ATF gunrunning, violating treaties at the very least; Republicans make a show of the Democrats "blocking" them... but do nothing to press the issue.)
3. IRS Political Targeting
   (Again, Republicans make a show of the Democrats "blocking" them... but do nothing to press the issue.)
4. NSA and domestic-espionage
   (Odd split: both republican and democrats join together in defending and supporting the practice.)
5. Border-Security in-general
   (The Republicans rattle sabers yelling build a fence to appease their base... but do nothing to press the issue, in effect allowing the Democrats to set the policy.)
6. Amnesty (specifically)
   (Even before November the Republican party was showing how much they want it… the only reason they're not openly pushing is because their base actually believes that they're for border security!)
7. National Debt
   (Republicans talk and talk about fiscal responsibility… yet they are all fine passing bills funding all of the federal government.)
8. Confiscation and Redistribution
   (The Republican party supports the War on Drugs, and especially Civil Asset Forfeiture, which is government confiscation; same as the radical Democrat.)

In short, there really isn't much left to distinguish the two parties apart other than [perhaps] the rhetoric they use to address their people.

Is Yoho a Jeb Bush guy?

[VerySadAmerican]

I have no idea who he supports. If he stays more than a few terms he’ll become one of them.

[GeronL]

yep

[spokeshave]

Ted Yoho and Ted Cruz

[Carry_Okie]

Three.

[Hostage]

If Ted Cruz wins in 2016, there should be a lot of newborn babies named TED!

[Jabba the Nutt]

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
We pillage plunder, we rifle and loot.
Drink up me hearties, yo ho.
We kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot.
Drink up me hearties, yo ho.

Yo ho, ho ho, a pirate's life for me.
We extort and pilfer, we filch and sack.
Drink up me hearties, yo ho.
Maraud and embezzle and even highjack.
Drink up me hearties, yo ho.

Yo ho, ho ho, a pirate's life for me.
We kindle and char and in flame and ignite.
Drink up me hearties, yo ho.
We burn up the city, we're really a fright.
Drink up me hearties, yo ho.

We're rascals and scoundrels, we're villians and knaves.
Drink up me hearties, yo ho.
We're devils and black sheep, we're really bad eggs.
Drink up me hearties, yo ho.

We're beggars and blighters and ne'er do-well cads,
Drink up me hearties, yo ho.
Aye, but we're loved by our mommies and dads,
Drink up me hearties, yo ho.

Yo ho, ho ho, a pirate's life for me.
Yo ho, ho ho, a pirate's life for me! Yo ho!

Progress, slowly but surely and it's possible that they actually heard us.

Bump!

Wait why can the Democrats vote?

[matthew fuller]

It’s their Congress too. Republicans can vote when dims have a majority.

[RushingWater]

I believe the rinos would prefer Pelosi over a conservative.

Sad, I thought it was kind of unreal to accuse RINOs of opposing the tea party more than the Democrat party - but it is now the truth. Imagine how low down this is - they would rather be popular in DC than love the country or honor their constituents! If you have a RINO rep, then reason with their staffers how corrupt they are to work for a man who conspires against the Constitution - i.e. all who voted against the Ted Cruz Constitutional point of order. Keep them on the phone until they hangup on you.
