Thank you very much.
Interestingly, when asked a few years ago about term limits, in summary my congress critter stated he did not support term limits because there are not term limits for the staff, and they would then in essence know more/have more clout than the elected Congress critters.
At the time, I thought it a rather lame reply, but perhaps it was not....
Hope you get to feeling better. Hop over to the weekly cooking thread for food porn to get your appetite up :)
I hope they are not let back in.
Holy CRAP.
2???? TWO out of 90????
Haven’t read the thread yet, but talk about an area ripe for reform. What the actual hell. I wonder if Posobiec has the resources to dig some more. How many of out congressional and senatorial committees are majority dem??? How can this happen??? Don’t these congressmen bring and/or hire their own staff???
HR in general has done a lot to ruin businesses, but this is insane.
The gop is the majority party right now. How many of their staffs are dems??
Yes, I read something from Louis Gohmert that their immigration status is “unclear”.

WHAT?!??!! They get $172k a year?!? Damn!
So, we paid through the nose to be taken? Or at least democrats did? Yikes - there's no end to their stupidity...

You had it right the first time.
DEMOCRATS or REPUBLICANS don’t pay for ANYTHING
WE pay for it all, those fools just throw it around like a bunch of drunken sailors (SORRY drunken sailors everywhere) in Olangapo PI or some other exotic Far Eastern Port City.
I still say the way to cut costs is to pay each of them say 2 or 5 mill a year and let them pay their own expenses INCLUDING staffs...they can hire their mother, father or whatever but lodging/coach fare in DC for 1 official trip per year, pay rent for 1 residence (with a cap), no chauffeur driven vehicles, term limits, NO job with influence on Government Decisions for at least 5 years
etc etc etc
Take ALL the perks away and you won’t see people spending 10 million for a 2 year stint as a Congressman.
Make it unlucrative(sic) enough and the crooks and slugs may have to go out and get a JOB....
Like HST (reportedly) said....
One thing if you were hiring Harry because of his skills NOT because he can get you something for nothing etc
(close - not quite a quote)
When he came out with that ‘cock a mamie’ story of wanting to run for Gov. of Utah in 2020, so here he comes to Utah, got tomatoes thrown at him in one ‘townhall’ and three others the got ‘booed off stage’ townhalls...we don’t want him, we don’t want Mike Lee and we really don’t want Hatch...but we don’t want the John McCain-Mitt Romney butt kisser ISIS lover ‘Egg McMuffin’ either...
We can see that the Romney Mormon Mafia is trying to run things, and we don’t like it...so now Chaffetz goes running to Fox News to be important, he fits right in...
They are all ‘turn coats’ people...there isn’t an honest Representative or Senator that is in D.C. right now, they have all been either bought off or blackmailed and all because we didn’t use the right to vote and stand up for who we wanted...
We did with Our President, you seen the power we have, we got President Trump and with all odds against us with the Globalists, New World Order and Deep State WE WON PEOPLE, THE AMERICAN VOTER GOT INTO OFFICE WHO WE WANTED!!!
Now we have to fight to get into the House and Senate former military, good solid people and we need to go out into every state and find them, if you think they are going to just appear before our very eyes, you might as well give up...IT’S UP TO THE AMERICAN VOTER TO GET THE PEOPLE WE WANT TO RUN OUR COUNTRY!!!"
Exactly.
But remember Sean Spicer is one of them, an RNC Bushie.
In fact, that may have been his hail mary to his deep RINO state handlers...
his weird cry for help "hiding in the Bushes" meme...
The RINOs were paid or blackmailed into enabling Obama for eight full years...Denny Hastert comes to mind... wondering what they have on Boehner.
Every important controversy or issue just extended, NEVER RESOLVED.
Trump needs to be known as the RESOLVER and stop the Uniparty’s Hegelian cycle of abuse of Judeo Christians and Conservatives.
You can read all the ‘fake news’ and you can listen to the talking heads and the radio show hosts going on 24/7 with their fake news, it isn't going to change a thing...
They lost, it's over, Hillary ISN”T GOING INTO THE WHITE HOUSE...period, never, notta, zilch, it's done...
People can rave about this person being this or that person being that and what good is it going to do? It isn't...it's over...there is President Donald J. Trump and Vice President Michael Pence...PERIOD!!!
Who worked for who 90 years ago, it's over...it's still going to be President Trump and V.P. Pence...
People can cry their little hearts out, it's over...it's still going to be President Trump and V.P. Pence...
People can cry about the media said this, and the talking head said that, and this happened and that happened and they didn't do this or they didn't do that, it's over...it's still going to be President Trump and V.P. Pence...
So so and so worked for Harry S. Truman and so and so worked for Richard Nixon, and so and so was friends with someone who worked for Ronald Reagan, it's over...it's still going to be President Trump and V.P. Pence...
Do I need to go on??? Have you got the point of the matter yet? Do you think the media,talking heads,radio show hosts give a crap about what WE the AMERICAN VOTERS say or feel??? No, but it's OVER, IT'S STILL GOING TO BE PRESIDENT TRUMP AND V.P. PENCE!!!
Calm down everyone. These numbers are not right
Start at local school boards, commissioners, water and utility boards...progs are after them. We just won 2 out of 3 open seats on local large schoolboard...one winner is a 21 yr old conservative! They out spent us...but we used “unions wouldn’t like us” for 2 of the candidates...and this is western Oregon
They aren't? If that's true, please tell us what are the right numbers. You seem quite certain.
Are you sure? Article said only 24 REGISTERED Republicans.
I’m betting you’re assuming that because the House Rs appoint 24 people they are all Rs, and I bet they are registered Ds.
Yep, he’s one of the TWO and part of the “Mormon mafia.”
I even doubt the government form if it says “Republican” because I’m guessing they just put that next to any staffer FOR a Republican. Chaffetz has his own R guy in-—part of the Mormon mafia. The rest I’m betting are registered Ds.
