Congress has passed no meaningful energy legislation to move us towards lower gas prices and more American energy and now has recessed for a 5 week break. Republicans, including yours truly, wanted to speak more about that on the floor of the House this afternoon. The Pelosi majority took the unusual step of calling for immediate adjournment to prevent these speeches from going forward and turned off the cameras and microphones on the House floor.
It’s one thing to not allow a vote on more energy production. It’s another to not even allow people to speak about it. I and several dozen others are speaking on the House floor right now to a gallery full of cheering people to demand that Speaker Pelosi allow a vote on more American energy production. No TVs. No microphones.
You can turn off the lights, but you cannot silence the will of the American people.

I'm laughing too. They didn't need to identify the party. You couldn't find a Republican that stooooopid (except maybe in the RNC).
There are 47 that I counted.

Thank you for your list.
They ought not to be defending themselves, Miller; they ought to be defending us, the country.
Nothing but window dressing so they could go home and say they tried.
Unelect these dimocrats!

Done the same week the “Save the Other Nations” party reintroduced the Fairness Doctrine.
I see a pattern.
BS, they didn’t go home, they are still in DC and they will be back on the floor monday. The main reason there was very little news coverage was because Pelosi turned off the camera feed to CNN. Like I said on another comment, stop whining start calling, do your part and become part of the solution as the saying goes. Right now all you whiners are definitely part of the problem.
Well I must have missed the additional information. If they go back on Monday and continue, I will be amazed. In fact I might even send my renewal to the RNC. I will continue to follow this development. Thanks for the information.
Now we begin to see the power of the dark side...
Senator Palpatane. Senator Obama. Do I sense a pattern here?
You are quite welcome. Did you watch the video? Quite entertaining especially when the stupid reporters ask some really dumb a** questions.
Here again represents why the left is winning. They have passion & drive & will go to the end of the world defending their illogical agenda. The pubbies sit around with the lights out. If the pubs ever get power back they will balance it with the commies as (R) majority leaders have done previously.
The video was interesting. Thanks again. Cheers!
Not back. She should be thrown out of CONgress.
What’s congress’ approval rating 8-9%. I’m trying to figure out how it got so high.
47 out of 435. Now you know why this nation has lost it.
True, she should be tossed out on her a...er ear, and that would be too good for her. She needs to do jail time.
