Mow remove Matt and Marjorie and Bobbert
|
|
We now have one of the most ineffective government in history.
|
|
Gaetz is about to find that political karma comes around and goes around. And he does not have the allies to support him.
|
|
Reps. Matt Gaetz, Nancy Mace, Eli Crane, Andy Biggs, Matt Rosendale, Bob Good, Tim Burchett and Ken Buck.
Those are the far right fuckwads who just decided to cut off their own heads for absolutely no gain whatsoever. NOTE however, that not a single Dem present voted for sanity either, even though they cannot take control, being in the minority. AOC sealed McCarthy's fate when she said she'd vote to oust and Hakeem Jefferies didn't have the balls to go against HIS far left wing.
McCarthy had many faults (sucking Trump's ass being one of them) but he proved to be an adult in the room actually achieving "the possible" given the Senate is controlled by Dems.
It takes two to tango and if just two Dems had voted for McCarthy, this would not have happened. Also note that Pelosi wasn't there, as well as, a number of other chicken shits (218 to 210 leaves 7 missing in action).
Perfect, now we have no Speaker with 43 days to go for the next shutdown.
I blame the eight assholes above plus the entire Dem contingent.
Looks like it was more important to embarrass McCarthy and the Pubs, than get on with the people's business. Shameful and despicable.

why the fuck do you really care about a few house fucks
fuck ton of em...worry about your own side of things and BE gleeful about the DOOM that you are projecting for the party...maybe you'll get lucky and take the house next year
|
|
Hopefully, the House Ethics Committee investigation into Gaetz will lead to expulsion.
But, not holding my breath.
POS.
|
|
My bad!
Vote was 216 to 210, leaving 9 MIA.
Still, 2 Dems could've made the difference.
|
|
@GBD What difference? No republical speaker would last 5 mins if based on Dem' support. Pretty clear Ray Dalio has a point and, bar some unforseen turnaround, we are approaching civil war and revolution.

They didn't give a shit about We the People.
They care about all the corrupt lobbyist money funneled through Ukraine.
They care about all the dirt Ukraine has on Joe Biden.
Keep the money flowing for the Ukraine War at all costs!
Pull a fire alarm, pass a continuing resolution. Bankrupt our country.
Just don't let the money stop going in and out of Ukraine!!!
America be damned!

"I blame the eight assholes above plus the entire Dem contingent"
No, it was McCarthy himself who enabled his own downfall. He made himself not to be trustworthy to either party or anyone else, because he never had any strong backbone or his own philosophy. He is just an opportunist politician without core belief in anything.
He condemned Trump after Jan 6, and asked for an independent commission to investigate it, then immediately he changed his mind, and he kneeled under Trump because he saw an opportunity to become a House Speaker.
He made a deal with Biden to fund military support for Ukraine, then he took the deal off because he had to listen to the demands of the far-right caucus. After repeating this engaging in double dealing many times without clear tactics, all the people around him were burnt out and nobody could believe him at the end.
I would call him semi-loyalist to MAGA Trump. There are so many GOP jefllyfish-politicians like McCarthy in the current GOP, and that is a dangerous trend that we have to pay attention to. Otherwise, it will lead straight to fascism.

If I am too annoying to "fake" conservatives here in this community, I will shut up for a while, but I thought it is free to discuss anything in the US as long as I am not breaking the law, or are you guys trying to perform censorship on my points of views?

Nick, that cycle is real, no doubt
Humans repeat the same mistakes over and over again
In fact, at my age it's possible to see a new generation make the same mistakes as a different one from earlier in my own lifetime
Case in point, regarding crime.........we've been here before back in the 70's/80's, then we woke up and cracked down in the 90's/00's. Here we are again where we were 50 years ago. Same with immigration, same with a lot of things.
I'm optimistic that we can bypass the war/revolution part but realistic enough to understand that it might go there.......hopefully not in my lifetime.
Daniel Henninger wrote a piece in 1993 called "No Guardrails" and it's still apropos today. Many, fortunately not all, of our intellectual, political and cultural elites have forgotten the protective virtues of self-restraint and self-control. Now, it's balls to the wall anything goes in pursuit of our tribal goals and fuck the rest of you.
Frankly, I wish I could be here to see the other side of peak human population. That'll throw some sand in the gears.

Wouldn't want to forget our resident mental patient.....
Rash, you're so busy talking to yourself in your head that you never listen.
"McCarthy had many faults", this is what I wrote acknowledging his issues. But, blaming it all on this one person is idiotic. After FDT screwed up a few elections, this guy was left with one of the slimmest margins on record and a Senate controlled by the opposing team.
In other words, his options were very limited. In the short time he had, he and FJB got some sausage made.........wasn't completely to my satisfaction, but is it ever?
You know what, Rash.
Nobody can stop you from vomiting up articles written by somebody else with an axe to grind.
Give us the one sentence Readers Digest version, make it quick......then do some creative analysis of your own, for a change. Whenever you post, it's like being scolded by Karl Marx and Ben Stein mixed together.
Ugh, no Bueno

Why try and blame the Democratic caucus when they are in the minority? They saved the government from going into default and McCarthy went on the news shows lambasting them! He talks out of both sides of his mouth and made concessions to the far right crazies just to become speaker.
He deserved to be ousted because he is a weak man! Nancy Pelosi has more balls than he ever had!
All the Republicans care about is culture wars, they do not know how to govern! They deserve to be in the minority and the Democrats in the majority who care about the American people. The Republicans only care about corporations and lobbyists with their BS about the Trickle Down Economics! Republicans said nothing when Trump ran up a 7 trillion dollar deficit but now they are concerned about the deficit. He gave corporations a massive tax cut and fucked up the tax code for the middle class who pay all of the taxes!!

@GBD Indeed at 122 yrs old you've seen a lot. I'm less ancient but of a mind to try and save democracy “the worst form of government…” if we can keep it. Which is less of a formality than I’d hoped. The rational middle has to stand up to do it. We can’t let the extremes tear us apart, which they will if we stay silent. My vote for speaker goes to @Marrisa_G she’s hot and seems pretty sensible.
If you need a volunteer to lick AOC or Bobert into submission to get it done I’m prepared to sacrifice for the good of the country.

Thank you for sharing jimbo
Careful not to trip on the short bus stairs
PS buy some FX and support the site, thank you

Lol, +1 Nick
With you on all that

"In other words, his options were very limited. In the short time he had, he and FJB got some sausage made"
You are as ridiculous and illogical as ever GBD, basically, you are saying McCarthy has no choice but agreeing on launching impeachment inquiry against Biden without any evidence? Even is own party Nancy Mace was complaining about him not to keep his promise on abortion. How do you expect this clown to govern the House in the first place.
|

On a tangent, some idiot wants to nominate Trump for Speaker of the House.

Please at least cite Vladimir Putin if you insist on having the odious taste of quoting him in the first place.

Get some fucking mail you cheap fucks !
You come on here like you are holier than all, yet you do not support the site nor the ladies of Hx at all !
Seriously, What the fuck is wrong with you two ?

Sherkahn,
I ordered another King Cake from Gambino's last week and had it shipped to the yacht !
I ordered the strawberry filled King Cake, slowly sipped two cups of hot chicory coffee with each piece that I devoured - just one piece each morning - and I am convinced that Cafe Du Monde (West) with Beignets and King Cake could make it big here !

Finally, I trader kicked out.

"On a tangent, some idiot wants to nominate Trump for Speaker of the House"
It is so obvious that McCarthy is very loyal to Trump, and he just followed what Trump wanted: showing their disrespect for Department of Justice, no regards for peaceful transfer of the power, Impeachment of Biden without any proof...And he kept very close relationship with MTG. After all 147 members of GOP voted to overturn 2020 presidential election results, and McCarthy was one of them, including McHenry.
So let's admit honestly, GOP became a truly dysfunctional, anti-democratic party. Naturally they want to nominate Trump for House Speaker.
|
|
Can't do that.
Because Trump is a buttwipe.
|
|
Put Gaetz in a nazi uniform. Bet he would look legit.
|
|
Rahcrener
Still no mail
Still no chicks in his network
Should be blog restricted without both being fulfilled !
|
|
Then who would you troll?
|
|
"... showing their disrespect for Department of Justice,"
See, that's all you had to say and I spit out my coffee laughing.
That's the same DOJ that had the FBI involved with Russia Collusion ( you might want to check in you spam folder for that memo ) at Hillary's request, traded emails with DOE to identify parents as domestic terrorists for expressing opinions at school board meetings, and tried to organize the most despicable immunity protection for Hunter which fell apart in front of a judge that was actually awake that day.
That DOJ doesn't deserve much respect.

@ bwana
Some other Liberal dumb fuck !

Huh?
Got no idea where you're even coming from with that, do you?
I was referring to legislation passed (sausage), never mentioned the impeachment.
Frankly, I'm opposed to an impeachment (an inquiry is fine), just as I was opposed to impeachment for FDT and FBC..........fucking stupidity on all sides.
Again, get out of your head and pay attention, Rashy.
PS Pelosi announced a formal impeachment over a month before the House voted on the subject. It's arguable whether either impeachment was done correctly......except that this one is not an impeachment yet..........it's an inquiry to gather more info. If and when they don't find the goods, then it will likely go away while Boebert finds someone new to grab her titties.

Dem Congressman 1 to Dem Congressman 2:
"There was never so much chaos in the House when George Santos was Speaker"
Dem Congressman 2 repeats this to George Santos, who says:
"That is why I don't want to be Speaker again"
That summarizes why this country is so fucked up. Members of Congress who tell jokes right out of the S. Butz joke book. Hopefully, god forbid, they don't morph into the ultimate blowhard - GBD.
|
|
The current Speaker is ordering Dems to vacate move offices.
Talk about petty.
|
|
Like any on this shit matters. Fucking left and right wingers all voting to fuck the american dollar. Less change for the strange!
|
|
The dems will regret voting out McCarthy once Jim Jordan becomes Speaker.
|
|
"Hopefully, god forbid, they don't morph into the ultimate blowhard - GBD."
Does this mean I get a participation trophy?
Thank you for your kind words, Squat!
|
|
Back on topic, yeah wondering like bwana whether the Dems will be wondering if they should've kept the devil they know.
McCarthy goes in the books as first Speaker ever ousted..........in history
|
|
Democratic President = A total shit show !
Biden is an old, senile, balanced challenged, sight challenged, brain challenged and many more challenges to the man --- it's just disgraceful in every way, shape or form !
|
|
Now, you sound like jimbo, lol.
Careful, go much further and you'll be Dood.
Kidding aside, that post may fit better in a different blog.
|
|
Snowflake’s chance in hell Jordan becomes speaker.
Tonya Harding may walk by and take out one of his knee caps before that happens.
|
|
you know this how? with all your political connections?
gov. of SD...thinks 80 percent chance
she knows as much as you, i take it
|
|
keep in mind mccarthy also was the one to implement the one vote to vacate.
i think that was his biggest mistake and it put a bomb under him in every decision he had to make.
hopefully that rule will be changed for the next speaker
|
|
He was forced to otherwise we wouldn't of been voted in
|
|
Such a Rep thing to do, disarray for 50 years.
I remember when the Dems were the same prior to their left wing enforcers moving in.
They're much more cohesive now.
Not sure about the rest of you but I get a little worried when that many people profess to believe the same thing. What do we have here as regular political posters, maybe 30 people?
None of us agree on anything!
|
|
Dammit, I just lied.
Everybody agrees that Dood is a math-challenged short-bus riding intellectual black hole cowering in Bullshit Club. Come out and play, Dood!
|
|
Please god no...
|
|
Lie down with dogs...
|
