Well , I liked the sit-in better than Ted Cruz reading Green Eggs and Ham! The Hastert Rule. (Ain't he that pedophile?) If a majority of the majority party is not in favor the issue doesn't even come up for a vote. I don't agree with that at all.

Hey Tide HSV where are the irrelevant posts supposed to go? :biggrin:

I thought that they had procedures for how to bring up a vote. Never seen this before and just wondering if things like this starts happening is this a poison for the future of democracy?

That gives the term "thread drift" a whole new meaning!

I heard something today that hit home.....sit-ins started out to help give people rights.....this one was designed to take rights away....

There are rules about how to get to a vote in the US House of Representatives. The dems just didn't have enough signatures/votes to make it happen. Who's fault I is that? Theirs

John Lewis likes it when John Lewis gets John Lewis in the news and everyone reads about John Lewis. I think that just about sums it up.

This is how stupid and hypocritical liberals/democrats are.
Charlie Rangle doesn't approve of your message.:wink:
“I wouldn’t want them to have it. I know what you’re trying to say. Corruption is corruption, and it’s bad,” Rangel said.

“Law-abiding citizens just shouldn’t have to carry a gun. You’re not gonna push me in that direction,” he said, standing just five feet from a Capitol Police officer, who stood at his post by the House Speaker’s Lobby.

TheDC noted to Rangel he and other members of Congress are protected by armed members of the U.S. Capitol Police.

“Well that’s a little different. I think we deserve–I think we need to be protected down here.” Rangel laughingly insisted.

Charlie's half right - law abiding citizens shouldn't "have to" carry a gun.
They should, however, have that option.

Has any other dweeb in the world managed to turn (an admittedly WRONG on all levels) head injury fifty years ago into one step below 'rose from the dead and should be worshiped' status? Even Max Cleland, the triple appendage loser, wasn't like the press releases for this nincompoop.
