... two leading congressional conservatives -- founding members of the House Freedom Caucus -- say the GOP’s current leadership leaves something to be desired.

“It's been average,” Rep. Raul Labrador, R-Idaho, told “Power Players.” “I don't think we've done a great job of following the promises that we made. I think we've done some good things, and we've done some not so great things. But what's really lacking is a vision for the future of America.”

In the interview, fellow Freedom Caucus chairman, Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, agreed with Labrador's grade for the accomplishments of the GOP-controlled House so far: “C-plus.”

Not much here but we hear so little from the media about the House Freedom Caucus. Their remarks are very 'politic' and 'diplomatic'. They get a little interesting after the 3 minute point.

They promised before the Election to remove
ObamaCARE, but they lied. LIED.

That is an F.

[Catmom]

Grade inflation ;)

[SharpRightTurn]

At best a D-, and that’s being charitable. Boehner and McCarthy get an F-.

Ditto.

I MEANT TO PUT IN MY REMARKS THAT THE ‘GRADE’ (IMO) IS ABOUT THE LEAST INTERESTING THING DISCUSSED IN THE INTERVIEW.
Nothing earth-shattering but a few interesting remarks are made.

“Rep. Raul Labrador, R-Idaho, told “Power Players.” “I don’t think we’ve done a great job of following the promises that we made....”

Understatement of the year.
