Some in GOP grow tired of Politiburo
- JP
It may be only one house, but it controls all the money.
The dirty little secret is that the House leadership wants ObamaCare. They are stalling so the funds that the sneaky democrats put into to this bill that no one read, will put all the infrastructure for ObamaCare in place.
The E-Publicans don't want anything to do with the rabble we sent them.
I also doubt the SCOTUS will touch it, else they would have stepped in to stop ObamaCare, in spite of the administration ignoring two contempt citations.
Most of those RINOs can easily go back across the aisle from whence they came from originally and quit stirring up dissent.
Well, the right wing is tired of GOP “veterans” that are nothing but left leaning, Dem-lite, bend forward a-holes.
Just get rid of all the useless bureaucrats and no one will notice the difference.
I’m supporting any primary opposition candidate my representative, Marsha Blackburn, has and might even vote for the Dem if she wins.
She voted FOR the CR. I’m tired of her. She’s all talk and uses her office to enrich her family.

The Rove connection ...

(Rove) is also working with former Republican National Committee Chairman Ed Gillespie to build a network of conservative groups rivaling the Republican National Committee in influence.
Insiders, outsiders
Inside the White House, where Rove once roamed, U.S. Trade Representative Ron Kirk, a former Dallas mayor and Texas secretary of state, is the solitary Cabinet-level Texan.
On Democrat-dominated Capitol Hill, Texas’ lopsided Republican delegation is at a disadvantage. Rep. Chet Edwards, D-Waco, the only House Appropriations Subcommittee chair from the state, has become a bipartisan champion for Texas projects, from military construction to medical research.
Edwards has worked closely with Republican Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison of Dallas, who managed to help Texas win $1.2 billion in federal earmarks last year despite serving in the minority party. The senior senator says her goal is to “work behind the scenes and put together coalitions and alliances to get things done in a very tough legislative atmosphere.”
Two other Texas lawmakers have become influential players because of their national, not state, portfolios. Sen. John Cornyn of San Antonio heads up the GOP’s Senate campaign committee, while Dallas Rep. Pete Sessions directs the House Republicans’ committee.
“Sen. Cornyn is building a power base that will likely serve Texas in the long run,” said George Edwards, a political scientist at Texas A&M.
