Hastert rule is intact because this is exactly how the vast majorority of GOP rank & file wanted this to go down. They wanted a meaningless No vote with the Dems covering them and guaranteeing passage of amnesty.
This cake was baked back in December when Cromnibus was crammed down. It’s all beltway theater now. GOP has surrendered until 2016.
The phony surrender was as phony as the phony resistance.
It has become professional wrestling.
The Democrats are the Harlem Globetrotters to the Wahington Generals GOP. They all sit around having drinks yucking it up how easy it is to fleece the citizens out of their country.
The only problem with that Republican game plan is that those that voted for them in 14 won’t listen or vote for them after watching the newly elected majority took over and play dead.
If they don’t reverse their coarse now they will lose reps in the house AND the majority in the Senate!
I personally can’t wait to see Mitch get politically punched in the face by losing the majority because of HIS capitulation to Obama and Reid.
