Not yet. They still need DOZENS of Democrats to support them, at least on gun control, as those Democrats know that a gun control vote will mean the end of their Congressional career - and most of them plan to be there a LOT LONGER.
I think this is TOTALLY a bluff, to get Republicans to buy-in on Amnesty. They already know the gun control issue is lost for them.
Not that I have any faith the ability to right things through elections anymore to begin with, but that’s the green light for a huge tear away of Republican party members to a 3rd party or formation of one nevertheless.
Why did they ever reelect the bonehead to the Speakership position. The guy has done nothing except spit upon the conservatives while basking in his sun tan booth sipping Black Jack on the rocks. These guys don’t wish to be the anti dems, they would rather just be the loyal collaboration, kind of a Vichy party.
We need to totally dump the RINO GOPe.
Leadership?....what Leadership?... did bonehead even know Gramnesty arranged the little gathering with Odungo last week? Were being sold a dead squirrel and told it’s a mink.
Its clear that this is what the House is doing,
Boehner will pass whatever Reid sends him. There are no alternative GOP bills in the House that can get majority GOP vote, and not one of them challenged Bohner by running against him, instead they will just vote their 'no's as the Reid crap passes to Os desk.
So this is the sad state of affairs that we are stuck with.
What you mean “WE” blue man.
This will start the demise of the ‘GOP controlled’ House, culminating into a Democrat victory in 2014. When the Republicans won in 2010 and they decided to elected Jon Boehner, I knew that it was the beginning of the end.
McCain/Boehner 2016 - leading the GOP into the future!
(Can you imagine what an utter failure that would be?)
The GOPe is no friend to the success of conservatives. The GOPe is only interested in re-election and being part of the political class.
It is time to fire them all.
“... by reaching across the aisle for support.”
Nothing new there.
"In a statement to The Hill, McCarthy spokesperson Mike Long said: "Whip McCarthy strongly supports returning to regular order to bring legislation to the floor that has the support of a majority of the majority. Insinuation to the contrary is completely false.""
Sounds like GWBush the morning after the 2006 elections — that he now had a Congress he could work with, to get immigration reform passed.
[Didn’t work for GWBush then. May not work for Boehner now.]
Those 16 or so who had a chance to end his speakership in January should have done so.
If the Republicans keep the House in 2014, they better do it in January 2015, or he will sell us out to the remaining Obama agenda.
Time to tell the R’s they get no financial support from us ever again, and we WILL support a 3rd party.
The elite golfing brigade is our enemy.
When will people learn that the republican leadership are nothing more then Big Government New World Order socialists, and this goes back to Bush I and Bush II and includes Bush III.
They will give their friends in the Democrat party what they want, because they support the same agenda.
Yes, this means Rush, Hannity and all of the other conservative talking bobble hears are wrong or misleading us on purpose.
If boehner follows through with this crap it will destroy the pubbie party as well it should
On issues like immigration and gun control, McCarthy said, he’d be open to taking rogue Republicans across the aisle to work with Democrats.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The dying gasp of the RINO GOP.
Like I have been saying for months, the RINO GOP is dead.Obama has actually succeeded in killing off the Progressive ink blots of the GOP who can represent no body. The only grace these RINOs have managed in this new session is in allowing the sequester, and that was an issue forced by conservatives, so now the RINOs hate Rand Paul?
Let the frivolous psychopomps sell out.
Time for a third party.
The election of 2014 better be the last one with GOP candidates. It is time for the Tea Party to consolidate and register as a real political party and run official candidates. We tried to take over the GOP from the elites and have failed.
