GOP Members Livid As Speaker Ryan Lets Democrats Stage a Sit-in
Breitbart ^ | 22 Jun 2016 | Neil W. McCabe

Posted on 06/22/2016 9:24:32 PM PDT by detective

Members of the House Republican Conference are furious at Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R.-Wis.) after they were forced to sidelines for more than nine hours while House Democrats staged a college-style sit-in in the House chamber to demand restrictions on gun rights.

“Ryan was so weak, he just let them take over,” a Capitol Hill source told Breitbart News.

Have fun with it; "puerile" is a very useful word. :-)

Sorry...misuse/incorrect usage of and misspelling of the word "doppelganger". A doppelganger has to look just like another person; NOT have the same ideology. ;^)

The Dems are all BORGS!

Someone who likes/is a fan of DR WHO.

The Kraken was featured in one of the series' episodes. It is a mythological sea monster.

LOL Thanks for the lesson. How about the use of the word RATS.

The word doppleganger was first heard used in the movie Journey to the Far Side of the Sun. Interesting movie and the word just stuck. Perhaps because of its German origin and one of the few words I could speak in German :-)

"RATS" is fine. :-)

I've know the word "doppelganger" for a very long time and I've not only never seen that movie, I've never heard of it. I first came across that word in some book, when I was a kiddo. It's rather late, I'm getting a migraine, and I have no idea what book it was; sorry.

LOL...I see I need to also teach you German words! :-)

“he thinks he should be President.”

I agree. Hence his modus operandi. He’s the convention sleeper.

Of course America is sleeping and most of them go through life fast asleep; sadly. :-(

It'll also be reported in a very biased way.....if at all.

Hello to you! :-)

Ahhhhhh...yes it was. The first CLASH OF THE TITANS movie was the better one; the remake was worthless.

This is the most bazaar episode in our nation’s history. The are conducting votes, people are giving testimony and bills are being read while these DemonRAT yahoos are chanting like 1960s hippies in a sit in. Where is the Sergeant at Arms? If I yelled out during the House business, I would be carted out to jail. A frog marching is a statement to those who would pull this stunt again.

Yes the first - the film with Harry Hamlin, Burgess Meredith, and the magic by Ray Harryhausen. The second was never seen and soon forgotten in file 13.
