REPUBLICANS ON THE FLOOR OF THE HOUSE ARE HOT! DEMOCRATS HOLD VOTE OPEN TOO LONG!

CSPAN

[Recovering_Democrat]

The Democrats held the vote open after they had lost. They strongarmed three Democrats, apparently, to change their vote to help create an extra layer of bureaucracy.

Matt Blunt and other Republicans are yelling "Parliamentary Inquiry!"

Republicans are asking why the Democrats changed the rule and then did NOT follow the rule

[Recovering_Democrat]

Boehner keeps asking how he can get the bad vote to be investigated.

The ‘rats cheated...

[Taking Congress back in 2010]

DeLay did the same thing to get that cr@ppy drug billed passed.

collateral challenge...order!

[BGHater]

Vote; about what???

[hsalaw]

Interesting, but a little unclear. Is this about the dems’ inability to override Pres. Bush’s veto of the “no waterboarding” bill?

[Recovering_Democrat]

The rats were losing the vote by three or four votes. They held the vote open, after time expired, then forced ‘rats to stop.

Barney Frank called them hypocrites.

I hate ‘rats.

[JusPasenThru]

Somehow I was expecting to see pictures of babes on this thread.....

[Old Sarge]

Do I have to log in?

[Dave W]

Would someone bother themselves to at least mention what the vote was on? Good grief.

[Recovering_Democrat]

No, this has to do with a new layer of “government”...unelected appointees to investigate ethics problems with members of the House.

Democrat leadership wants it, Republicans and intelligent Democrats (only about 16 of them) do not want it. The ‘rats left the vote OPEN until they strong armed enough of their members to change their votes. Even though the time was up, the “voting” was left open.

Now the ‘rat leadership says they won the vote. Republicans said, “You guys changed the rule when you took over, and said the vote could not remain open any longer than three minutes. You just broke that rule.”

Democrat “leaders” told the Republicans to go piss up a rope.

[Recovering_Democrat]

see 11. Sorry for being unclear.

[BARLF]

You mean you don't know what they are talking about?

LOL

Neither do I.

[Blood of Tyrants]

‘Rats will act as ‘Rats. You can’t trust ‘em as far as you can throw ‘em.

And pissant is doing everything he can to make sure a ‘Rat occupies the WH for the next 4 to 8 years.

[Man50D]

How about more details!

[Corporate Law]

For “show trials” essentially. Stalin is chuckling with glee in Hell over this.

[ridesthemiles]

RULES??
RULES??

We don’t need to follow no stinking rules!!!

[ivyleaguebrat]

Whether they be Rs or Ds, leaders who pull this crap deserve censure.

[longtermmemmory]

if democrats trusted voting they would never have created super delegates.

[luvie]

When you change the rules as you go along..........
