Republicans Dump McCarthy For Speaker!

Newt Gingrich for Speaker. He'd make Obama throw a real prissy his sy fit.

Newt was driven out of office when he shut down the government in a temper tantrum because he had to sit in the back of Airforce 1

Shutting down the government is the only option...

Otherwise it's one party rule... The progressive party

That is really the only tool you have left in your toolbox isn't it?

Then after the government is shutdown, all you can do is whimper because the parks are shut down

Obama slapped you around last time you played that game, now you want to do it with an election coming up next year? You guys are politically clueless
 
You really believe there is any such thing as a conservative establishment republican?!?!
Not one of them have that quality... They all do whatever Obama tells them to do... They are his little slaves...

There used to be a conservative party and a republican party. The republicans were conservative in the true sense in that they defended the status quo and were conservative in fiscal affairs. There were many decent republicans.

Then regan and lee atwater let open the crazy gates to the rabid right and the southern strategy took hold....

now wingers like you have hijacked what was once the party of lincoln. you'd make him sick if he saw you today.

does that answer your question?

(and I say this as someone who voted for both giuliani and partake when they ran for office). now? i wouldn't vote for a republican until they divest themselves of you nutcase who think freedom means you try to divest women of the power to control their own bodies.

because .... jesus

and guns.
No, not really. The should be no negotiation, stand your ground. War of attrition, all or nothing thinking.

stop projecting....

now go stamp your feet and demand the government be shut down again over an issue that only a minority of the county thinks is an issue....
The country is already broke... How could government shutdown hurt anymore?
Government shut downs, hurts all of us citizens and our Nation.

-It shows weakness in our congress and senate, which is shown throughout the World and to our enemies.

-It shows a divided Nation

-It shows we have no ethics, or financial responsibility to pay the debts we OWE to people we have borrowed from, to the businesses we have used services from, to the people our gvt has bought/purchased from, and to the people who work for the gvt.

-It can reduce our credit rating, as it did the last time, COSTING ALL OF US AMERICANS, billions if not trillions in the long run, from higher interest rates that we will have to pay on our National debt.


-Overall, it reduces the security of our Nation, the security of social security, and Medicare.

-It promotes the lack of confidence in our Nation's leaders, and lack of confidence in the market place.

-It hurts areas, like my own, with a National Park, and all the businesses and hotels surrounding the Park, like it did us, during the last shut down, during PEAK SEASON for Fall Foliage, the last time anyone in Maine in this region can make any money, prior to the deep freeze of winter. This also reduced the intake of federal taxes and State taxes collected from the lack of business.
Well, we are a divided nation we don't agree. What? You want one side just to lay down and disappear?
Big issues are always hard decisions... Got to draw the line somewhere and stand by it.

Yabut ...

Freedom!

Trump! Trump! Trump!
 
if Republican vote to not raise the Debt Ceiling they will simply be taking their cues from one Senator Obama who not only ACTUALLY VOTED AGAINST IT but called it a "failure of leadership" to raise it. when you present actual facts to left-wing nutobs to counter studity like this:



Government shut downs, hurts all of us citizens and our Nation.

Obama slapped around the Rinorepublicans as he always does, then they joined their fellow progressives(dems) and opened the government up again.

Spineless as usual
 
if any of you idiots actually beleived YOUR OWN tough talk then you'd think the blaming of Republicans and the long-gone Bush would have stopped long ago

please dummy. you arent fooling anybody

OK ...shut me up by explaining what the do nothing republican Congress has accomplished

I have posted what Obama has accomplished since the big republican victory.....why can't you do the same?
Well, the progressive Rinorepublicans have done everything Obama has told them to do... Epic fail.
Embrace the suck

Your rejection of what you call RINOs who are in fact the real Republicans is destroying your party

GOP infighting and refusal to compromise even among fellow Republicans is why your attempt at controlling Congress is such a farce
It's a farce because they bow to Obama and do everything he tells them to do.
That's why they are called Rinorepublicans... Spineless

Isn't Rinorepublicans redundant? You keep using it but it doesn't really make sense[/QUOs

I love how the left enjoys using corruption in government and tyranny to get their way instead of using the constitution.
 
There are 247 Republicans in the House, yet a small faction is holding the rest of the party hostage. Perhaps it is this group who are the RINOs.
And to expand on that a bit, I think this relatively small group of people would normally be considered either Libertarians or pro-life Libertarians. But they know that they have neither the power nor the infrastructure of the GOP, and they're simply trying to usurp it.

The GOP already has the total political apparatus in place. If these people can push the Republicans overboard, they save a TON of time and work.

You want congress one sided as it is today? Because it's going soooo good.
Obama telling them what to do and them following lockstep. There needs to be a whole lot more disagreement and disarray in congress.
Like a real difference between the so called republicans and democrats right now no one can tell the difference. Currently they just hold hands and take their marching orders from Obama and his puppet masters(lobbyists) and pass meaningless bills the country can't afford.

Apparently you like our country being in debt??
 
People that follow national politics know in the back of their mind that this process playing out where Representative Kevin McCarthy seems to be a shoe-in to become the next Speaker of the House is like watching a train wreck occur in slow motion. A Speaker McCarthy is going to be pressured and manipulated by the far right of the Republican Party producing disastrous results. Anyone that has followed Kevin McCarthy's career knows he has at minimum deep sympathies with the far-right in the Republican caucus; this faction of the Republicans cannot govern their too unrealistic their too tunnel vision about their ideals the Republican Party doesn't have the power to accomplish what this faction wants to accomplish they don't get this!



America needs a Speaker that can be a reliable partner to Mitch McConnell like John Boehner and get things done for the country. Kevin McCarthy is at best an unknown entity Senator McConnell will not know whether he can count on him to get bills through the House so this will obstruct Senator McConnell from getting things done in the Senate. Senator McConnell is a leader that knows how to govern meaning that when your party doesn't hold all the levers of power you have to scale back your ambitions. From all indications Representative McCarthy doesn't seem to fully get this resulting in the big question will the House be able to fulfill its role in governing if Mr. McCarthy is the Speaker.



One example is that it is really hurting the country that the charter of the Export/Import Bank has not been renewed, it needs to be renewed now and there is no legitimate question on whether or not it should be. This failure to renew by Congress is causing real tangible hardship; businesses are moving operations off shore to a country that has such a bank , U.S. businesses are losing contracts because of this. All this harm is not trumped by a representatives ideal or principle that U.S. taxpayer revenue should not be backstopping the credit such a bank provides the amount of taxpayer monies on the line here is peanuts compared to the nation's entire liability this line of argument does not hold water. The Republican right wing opposition to the bank doesn't make sense the Republicans are supposed to be pro-business Republicans have long stood for having credit flow to businesses so they can prosper. These far right Republicans are contradicting themselves here because many of them are in favor of doing away with Fannie and Freddie and replacing it with a system where the private sector absorbs initial credit losses if they occur and then the Federal Government will backstop the creditors, why the double standard guys? Private sector lenders really cannot replace the Export/Import bank because the loans are made to foreign government tough to collect on defaults here plus the Export/Import Bank is profitable and is not in any real danger of catastrophic losses. Kevin McCarthy is against renewing the charter and is a zealot about this, the country needs such a guy as a speaker like they need a hole in the head.



America has a Speaker in waiting in Paul Ryan. Mr. Ryan is cut from the same cloth as Mr. McConnell they both are not extremists one can trust them to govern. The country from all political persuasions likes and greatly respects Mr. Ryan from his run for Vice-President. Mr. Ryan as Speaker would be a good mouthpiece on advocating the House "govern" he would get traction in public support for his leadership so that he would be able to provide cover for non-far right House member to vote for the House to govern. Mr. McCarthy would not provide such cover for his fellow caucus members because he would be too busy trying to cater to the far right part of the Republican Party. It's a long shot because Mr. Ryan wants to stay in his chairmanship but rank and file House Republican members should lobby Mr. Ryan to run for the Speakership. What also is needed here is for Democrat House members to show virtue and due their duty and vote for the best candidate that runs for Speaker not just oppose all Republican candidates because their from the other Party!

The problem here is that people are fed up with the likes of Mitch McConnell that accomplish virtually nothing.

It is what it is. Deal with it.
