Post comments here, please!
I noticed that Boehner got a huge amount of applause....and the clerk at the front looked pissed and pursed her lips.
Nancy didn’’t get much applause. LOL!
Had to turn channel to Senate side after they voted Pelosi in again and who did I find speaking, The one and only Harry Reid. This is what he is doing, first thing. A tribute to Barbara Mikulski. Where do I change the channel too now!!!!!! Eegads
"Let us pray, Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful believers and kindle within them a fire of divine love, that they may be truly open to respond to your word and to the needs of your people.
Lord, send forth your spirit and renew the face of the earth. May the spirit of the living God descend upon this chamber, that from here may come forth good news for the poor, healing for the broken-hearted, and renewed hope in the nation.
Let there go forth a proclaimation to the people that captivity has ended and the action of true politics will set this nation free. By setting single minded self-interests aside in the search for the common good. May a just society flourish with the gifts of your spirit and be recognised by others for it's equal justice, unity and peace.
Lord, may the 112th congress of the United States of America be an instrument of your goodness with abiding laws embraced and clarity in policy statements reaching beyond institutional thinking and public opinion polls. May every human life in this country be renewed with dignity and purpose; so we may truly be the glory given to your name as the free children of God, made in your image and conformed to your saving grace, both now and forever--Amen.
C-Span is best.
Voted pelosi in again?! What are you saying? Republicans voted for nancy?
I think it meant they nominated her again.
No, they are voting for her as minority leader. The count for present other is at 9. Wonder who that was?
Its a roll call and members are voicing their vote. Boehner, Pelosit or other
LOL, I love the “aw shucks” slap and smile Pelosi gave Hoyer after his vote.
In regard to “other/present,” My count so far is 3 for Schuler and 1 for cooper, with the rest being “Present.”
I may be off by 1 or 2.
Many are voting for “Shuler”...who is that? It can’t be “shumer”? Can’t be rev shuler...???
Heath Schuler maybe?
D from North Carolina. I think he wanted the job but ole Pelosi won out.
Heath Shuler from NC.
Yes, it’s Heath Shuler.
I can’t help but see the contrast in the television shots. The many, many children seated among the very people who have saddled them with Herculean debt and greatly increased odds of a less prosperous, even dismal, future.
16 brave dims so far voting against piglosi
Yeah, I think that’s it.
Maybe they will vote with us on Health Care. Would that make it bipartisan????
