Cui bono? The Romans had a phrase for what is happening in the House

By Kevin “Coach” Collins

A recent political cartoon showed a group of “Republican” elephants standing around a body marked, “Boehner” with multiple arrows in its back. One asks, “What now?” A second responds, “Maybe we should have thought this through first.”

In just eight words, without realizing it, the propagandist who created the cartoon has epitomized the problem with the Uniparty rule of government. These enemies of freedom just don’t get it.

When John Boehner resigned as Speaker he did not do so willingly. As an apparatchik for the Uniparty’s control of our lives, his job was to bludgeon Americans into accepting unlimited numbers of illegal aliens and enable Barack Obama to destroy what is left of our nation. He failed for a very simple reason: We have had enough lies and broken promises.

Americans went to the polls in two successive mid-term elections and handed power to a cabal of liars whose smug contempt for Americans has finally caught up to them.

I saw this common thread among the pundits- the TEA party is so stupid - they took out Boner and “now what?”...

The answer to that is this: Boner was only the first.

We are not sitting around wondering what to do next, only who to take out next.

McCarthy made himself an easy mark. He helped take himself out. NO ONE except the libtards and RINO’s could see him as speaker.

Although I recognize that the interruption to the conduct of business and apparent chaos isn’t the most desirable state I would have to add that is precisely what we had with Boehner.

Things weren’t getting done and when they were they were largely a betrayal of the voters. So why not welcome the discord if it means shaking up the status quo?

Cantor, Boehner, McCarthy.

The GOPelites have gone to DC, settled in, and conveniently forgot who sent them there.

If McConnell, down the hall, isn’t shaking in he boots, he should be — IF he wants to remain Senate Majority leader.

[I wonder whether McConnell would actually be happier, and less busy, by turning the keys back over to the Dems. Too many Pubbies don’t seem to like being in the majority. It is too much work.]

If the Tea Party now backs off, they will lose more than they have gained. The 2 previous attempts (one led by Bachmann) to unseat Boehner failed miserably, because the rebels lost their will to see it through. So, why have they not advanced a name for the speakership?

We didn’t elect these people to work WITH the Democrats, liberals, socialists and progressives.
We elected them to oppose everything they are doing and put our nation on track as Jefferson’s Republic.

You are exactly right. There was an immediate rush to shape this story. Instead of being about the dismantling of the cabal of liberal appeasers it slyly morphed into the “now what” meme. The subtext is that conservatives can’t get their act together. But the real story is that conservatives are gaining in influence.

Historically, America is in the same phase as was Rome starting about 130 B.C.. That period started with the assassination of the Gracchi our period started with the assassination of the Kennedys. Soon came Sulla and Marius our Sulla and Marius will be here soon. The Roman Senate was paralyzed look at our Congress.

Yes.....all the pundits do, is try to control your perceptions of the Reality and create the proper “emotions”...(they are winning, so give up).

It is usually a lie and misrepresentation——to further their Marxist, totalitarian cause—it is the Dialectical Materialism and it is always three steps forward and one step back——but we know the “progression”.

We need a total dismantling of their “systems” which are all unconstitutional and amount to putting us in chains and stealing private property to give themselves and their cartel families power over us. THEY MAKE US PAY FOR THEIR TYRANNY. (it is the rope around our necks, that Khrushchev or some evil Marxist talked about.)

Their “systems” including the Dept. of Education—which are “Null and Void” YESTERDAY-—because they are antithetical to the Constitution-—and Rule of Law. ALL unconstitutional “systems” need to be DISMANTLED yesterday!!!!!!! So we can be FREE like our REPUBLIC states-—UNALIENABLE NATURAL RIGHTS FROM GOD-—not permission from our “masters”.

We either take back our Constitution and put those irrational, evil judges in prison for Treason-—or we will go the road of all past “Republics”——into obscurity and mass enslavement/serfdom like mankind has experienced for his entire history——except for that brief period of Individualism-—that Christian concept of the Shining City on a Hill.

We have to embed the Christian Worldview (Natural law/Common Sense) in our children again and destroy the “collective” “group think” of irrational (emotions only) materialism, that they are conditioned to idolize and worship in our publik skool agitprop, artificial, dehumanizing, mass conditioning centers which destroy Individualism and “thinking outside the box”-—Christian Virtue.

But boner is implying that he might stay on, at least for now, but who knows day to day. Someone must have told boner that another rino chump is needed to replace him or else he has to stay.

Now if the POS actually does try to put in place some real gun restrictions by EO, the new speaker will need to push for impeachment, otherwise that person will be tossed out like boner. I strongly doubt that Ryan would risk his future to do it. Better to choose an older guy with enough energy that’s willing to stand up to the tyrant and go out in a blaze of glory if necessary.

67 guilty votes are needed in the Senate to remove Obama from office via impeachment trial. There are 54 Republicans in Senate. If all the Republicans, including the RINOs voted guilty on Obama’s removal, 13 Democrat votes would still be required.
