>>Brady’s staff is either lying that they don’t know his position on CR bills in progress or they are abysmally incompetent<<

Yep. A couple of weeks ago I spoke to a woman in the Conroe, Tx office and she sang Speaker Boehner’s praise. She said something to the effect, “If not for Boehner campaigning for candidates..blah blah blah.”

She said at the representative conference concerning the speakership position...No one came forward to challenge Boehner’s speakership position...No one. The lady indicated four reps abstained their votes...Kevin not being one of them.

I was pretty pumped up on election night when republicans swept the nation. Thought we'd get some tough leadership, some conservative payback and or at the very least, shutdown any further unconstitutional actions by Obozo.

Feeling pretty deflated.

Ted is talking to the wind. Boehner is not going to do anything to stop Obama’s amnesty or any other illegal thing he decides to do.

Thank-you for making the calls. Even though they seemed to be stonewalling you, I am sure they felt the pressure.

I regularly post DC numbers on FR. But it is when I call the local offices that I have actually get a call through and once I actually get to speak to a representative ( not mine but from AZ).

Keep it up. You are an example to us.

” But we’ll hold their feet to the fire after the 16 election. “

With amnesty, it won’t matter who we run, we lose PERIOD!

Now you’re just taking the purist view and we all know that is bad. We were told so here for months. Years even. We will just have to keep our powder dry for a true conservative like Jeb. He;ll save us all!

Not a very tough message for anyone not a lying politician.

Why the F are the Republican liberals trying to help Democrats when they are already sabotaging the country with things like this so called terrorist torture report from the Senate Democrats? Mind you the Democrats wrote it like a piece of fiction being sold as reality as all those involved said that we got Bin Laden and other significant from the practices we used.

What does all this do for what Republicans want to accomplish?
What Republicans are doing is like having unprotected sex with an aids patient, everything gets infected.

(because they ALWAYS say exactly what we want to hear when they want us to vote for them!)

Please stand down until November 2016 when we will need your vote again to fulfil more promises which we will never keep.

Thank You

GOPe

Vote for a conservative. Always. All voting RINO does is destroy our country. If we lose to a dem, there is no functional difference as Bhoner and Mitch prove. Or as the lessers that keep reinstalling them in the leadership to keep their committee jobs. So there is exactly no downside to NOT voting for a RINO. EVER. We lose just as bad with either in control. I am not sure how many times Lucy has to pull the football, but Charlie Brown will learn eventually.

Ir isn’t Barry sending an Amnesty bill to Barry. It’s the GOP. It isn’t Barry funding all Barry’s escapades like Obamacare, Foreign fiascos, the EPA and the IRS. It’s the GOP. The 5 conservatives left in it make no impact on what the GOP does. NONE. So the logical choice is leave the GOP, vote for people that want what you for and be done with it.

There is nor will there be feet to fire, keeping powder dry or any of that empty worded crap. People over the last 3 elections screamed that ad nausem and did not one single inch of it. Just as several of us here predicted with complete and unerring accuracy, deispite the great and mighty bitching, personal attacks and non stop excusemaking of the Freeper Left.

Now? What should we do? Use Yoda logic. Do or do not. There is no try.

The Germans had put all they available forces into the attack through the Ardennes forest. If you remember from the movie PATTON, one target they were aiming at was a fuel depot, which Henry Fonda helped to blow up. They didn't have their own fuel, so they intended to use that fuel to extend their attack. It was Hitler's last desperate throw of the dice in the West.

Patton moved to fast to be a target and probably the Germans didn't know he had turned to head north and they had no forces to attack Patton's flank.
