Did not see one yet. Trying to access CSPAN on line. Site looks different. Are they requiring a registration to watch?

they will pull your finger

They've been doing that for decades, in the House. May the House 'pull the trigger' and show they are listening to 'the People' or is certain consequences are coming.

I know because am a Prophet! LOL ... They disobey 'the People' at their own soon to be fate. For decades, 'the People' have waited for a reckoning ... Time will draw shorter without the House pulls the trigger.

Text summary of what’s happening on the floor.
Helps figure out what’s going on.

Right now it’s the big quorum call to start things off.

I’m not expecting good news. If those who wish the Crying Cheeto to begone, have held votes up their sleeves, that’s one thing.... but publicly, there are only 15 Cheeto-crunchers.

Those people will advise us all to grovel for what scraps we can get and demand we be content and happy because “we do not have the Presidency” so we have to take what we can get”.

Then, after JEB wins, we can “hold their feet to the fire”.

And I have this bridge I’m thinking of selling…….

I understand the desire to have your kids and grandkids on the floor with you, but I’m finding this circus very offensive. If they aren’t old enough to sit in a chair quietly and with dignity, they don’t need to be there.

...or maybe I’m just getting old.

Rush talking about this now, could be a game changer, why do it now if it’s in the bag for B?
That was my thought exactly.

Dammit...I tried calling my reps Trent Franks and Matt Salmon, and both had voice mails answer and both boxes were FULL. Ugh...

Guess I’ll have to go to their website/facebook and make my statement.

Then, do yourself a favor, deactivate your account and find a hobby, because Free Republic was not created for quitters.

A bunch of them did it ll day yesterday. All GOP All the time. I am confident FR will continue to be their favorite platform to spew the GOP party line.

I’ve been asking God for a miracle. I know He has bigger fish to fry. God is concerned with the eternal destiny of souls. The House Speakership, important as it seems at the moment, is inconsequential in terms of eternity/heaven or hell.

Still I have prayed for a miracle. Sometimes even (relatively) smallish things like this have positive eternal consequences.

I just hung up with some phone-taker in Congressman John Carter (CINO - TX)

Get this...his phone taker does not know his position on the speaker. I questioned the guy as to how odd it is that he works for Carter, yet does not know his position on the most important issue of the day.

I fully expect Carter to vote for Boehner like he did the last two times.

Wasnt created as a GOP soapbox either but the GOP fans use it as such.

Maybe Rush has decided to get involved in primaries this go-around, something he’s always refused to do. This is probably the last cycle he’ll have influence in the primaries, anyway.

Rush should have been all over this yesterday when it would have really done some good.

He failed badly yesterday!
