I should have known this was coming. e-Rinos will knife the people if given a chance.
All of these "priavte assurances" whispered to lefty media add up to nothing until then.
I’m glad these Republican supporters of Obamacare are outing themselves.
i don’t trust republicans to hang together, but i really don’t trust anything out of democrat’s mouths, especially about republicans.
There are always cowards in our ranks. Dent sure sounds like one. Hope Frank Wolf holds strong. He’s a good guy but he’s been around for a long time. Lots of Bonehead pressure on him for sure.
For those who cave, remember, the election is only a year away, and the unemployment office is a lot closer.
IOW Dent is saying, to hell with the millions of people who have been and who will be hurt financially due to the ACA.
To hell with the millions of people who will be hurt physically because the ACA simply cannot work.
To hell with the nation incurring billions of more debt due to the fabricated accounting in the scoring of the ACA
Just as long as the media stop calling him nasty names and he can still go to the cocktail parties, he'll vote FOR the "clean" CR.
As Robert Zimmerman once said, "People seldom do what's right. They do what's convenient, then repent"
I have a ‘clean CR’ I’d love to give these guys....
What kind of world do they live in if they can’t see that Obama and Obamacare are going to destroy America?
One thing I’ll never understand about American politics: why no one seem to be able to be kicked out of the Republican Party. Oh, wait... David Duke did.
Whatever happened to the Hastert Rule?
The republicans should hand together Or assuredly they will hang separately. (with apologies to Ben Franklin ). I, fir one, will send a contribution to an opponent of the first republican who sabotages mr boehner now.
Send him an e-mail, I just did. All you have to do is make sure that the city is Allentown, PA and the ZIP is 18104 so he thinks you are a constituent. Already got his “canned” response to the effect that “he takes all correspondence seriously.” I hope so, because I was questioning the location of his spine among other things.
It always amazes me how easily Republicans adopt the left’s language. I wonder if they’re even aware how it puts them behind the eight ball.
In this case it’s the word “clean” bill (clean CR), which automatically leaves the impression to all the low information (i.e. ignorant) voters that what the republicans are offering must be a “dirty” bill.
So they willingly start with two strikes against themselves. What fools!
“Clean” CR.
I love how that word has become part of the lexicon.
Reminds me of when the Democrats were completely out of power and assumed the mantle of the “Loyal Opposition”.
Never hear that phrase nowadays do we? It’s in the dustbin containing Hillary’s famous “Dissent is Patriotic” screed.
If Dent and some of the more left leaning RINO’s in districts they think are primary proof (can beat conservative challengers) vote for a CR, it allows Boehner and a lot of other GOPe congressman look good with their NO votes.
Then Boehner and the GOPe can move on the next orders of business like increasing the debt ceiling and amnesty.
Traitor faggot
They should be refusing to pass ANY continuing resolution, and instead pass a resolution demanding that the Senate do its job, and vote on a budget. No budget, no funding. Then adjourn until the Senate capitulates.
Dent is going for the short-term gain of preserving himself for 2014, while screwing the country for the long term.
Good job, Dent. Go on cable tv and spit on freedom.
You love Obamacare, Dent? You’re showing it.
Wtf is a CR? No wonder republicans lose in public opinion polls. Speak in terms that the average joe can understand. They are really out of touch with voters IMO.
Clean CR = Supporting ObamaCare
Obviously some RINOS looking to be primaried in 14
