Do USMB Republicans understand yesterday's House GOP "humiliation"?

House Republicans yell and scream and complain that nothing is being done.

Then they right a bill to do something.

And promptly take a five week vacation without voting ON THEIR OWN BILL!?!?!?!

The GOP is right about one thing. There is a total lack of leadership in Washington. And they are doing NOTHING to fill the void.

The House is still in session today. They have not gone home.

I am sorry. My Bad. I apologize.

When are they adjourning? Are they going to vote on the bill before they leave?
 
I was watching Fox and Friends this morning and Ann Coulter complained about housing the immigrants and said:

"What about Americans first?"

I agree with her but heres the problem with her objection. She doesnt want immigrants to receive help and I understand that. She wants to put Americans first I understand that too.

But when you talk about Govt helping Americans thats when you find out that even tho she asked "what about Americans first" she also opposes helping Americans first TOO.

Its the worst shell game I've seen in a while

Coulter is playing to the crowd. He knows perfectly well that Fox viewers will not support the Government housing anyone.

Can you point to any legislative initiative that proves what you just posted? Please, don't be so partisan to try and name increasing the minimum wage that is just pure BS.

You want legislation on Fox Viewers or Ann Coulter playing to the crowd?

The last welfare reform, that I remember was under Clinton. The Earned Income Tax credit, that was under Reagan. So you will have to show me where the Republicans have tried to stop all help to EVERYONE and not just the slackers.

No one said all help to everyone. They love helping the rich and corporations. They have different views on helping regular joes.

Or maybe Republicans want to help the rich just like the poor and they hold both in high regard? ....*snicker*
 
I just read that they delayed their vacation to deal with immigration.

That is GREAT!

I'd love to see some leadership emerge here.
 
Is the far left still embarrassed that they could not rush Obamacare through without destroying the moderates in the (D) party?


not if the Right isn't still embarrassed they couldn't beat Obama in the last two presidential elections and have a cry baby Speaker that lets his underlings kick him around ...

Oh the shame... :lol:

Yes
Right now they are voting on Border Security Spending.
Later on today they will vote on Boarder legislation.
 
Seems rdean has an odd definition of humiliation.

Especially since he excludes his posts.

We will see John Boehners leadership skills today and whether he remains Ted Cruz's *****

Well, I don't expect anyone is going to vote to start shooting the children .....

I hope

But under this deadline pressure (that they've created themselves), I'm not to optimistic about anything other than a band-aid, but I'll wait to see what is produced and hope for the best.

How they dare debate bills and then vote on them, where is the obstruction? Even if the House passes these bills if they do not contain outright amnesty then Reid will never let them see the Senate floor. He still might not, he is the real obstructionist, that and the left's unwillingness to compromise or even listen to amendments.

Our President didn't help when he said he wanted the 2008 law changed and then while they were working on that, then said I will veto any bill that changes the 2008 law.

Nope, that didn't help.
 
After a month of posturing that immigration was a crisis and swift action was called for......Boehner does nothing and takes a 5 week vacation

Not only that, these guys keep screaming "it's all about immigration". It's about refugee status under their law that Bush signed in 2002 and again in 2008.

It's like them screaming about "voter ID" when their voter suppression tactics are much more broad and damaging.

If they can scream the loudest, they believe they are controlling the narrative by limiting the conversation to their talking points.

Besides, we need children that grow into adults who actually like to learn. It will offset some of the terrible damage perpetrated by the GOP.

Thats all Boehner can do is scream ad act outraged. He does not have the votes to pass the most simple legislation. Even legislation that had 2/3 support of the House

He can't do a thing about immigration reform. He screamed about the VA and then sat on bills to fix their problems. He yells for Obama to do something about immigrant children and then can't even pass a bill for $500 million to get started

Boehner is the worst Speaker in modern times
"Thats all Boehner can do is scream ad act outraged." And you forgot one very important one. CRY!

Why can't those on the left understand the difference between legal and illegal immigration?

Are they really that stupid?

They do understand it. They just don't care.

They look at every illegal as a future Democrat vote.

It will be interesting to see how many Republicans will refuse to vote for anything that has to do with immigration

The GOP is right about one thing. There is a total lack of leadership in Washington. And they are doing NOTHING to fill the void.

The House has over 350 bills they have written, debated and passed, many of them on bipartisan votes that are gathering dust on Harry Reid's desk. The House does their job or representing their constituents. Harry Reid is a one many government obstructionist. 350+ bills to conduct the people's business sitting on Reid's desk. Look it up for yourself if you don't believe me.

How many Democratic bills gather dust because they do not have 60 votes to pass cloture

Why should Republican bills be any different?

He sent his National Guard to protect his state/international border because the President is out fundraising and can't be bothered with an invasion.
