As heard on 630 WMAL Washington DC during RUSH's profit break.
Majority Whip says he thinks it is a GREAT idea for everyone to sit together.
This is nothing but a Dim ploy, a first step to begin weakening the Republicans' resolve and determination to use their House majority to oppose Obama and to advance a more conservative agenda.
ML/NJ
Kevin McCarthy........blech
My husband just told me about this. If The Republicans do this, I am FINISHED! How can they be this stupid?
They have to know this will not sit well for them. Lets make this state of the union the lowest watched ever for starters, the following day we should have a mass email, letter telephone, fax overload in DC stating our displeasure with them and third an independent party candidate for 2012
Well maybe they can all sit together but the “Rs” can wear Hawaiian ties or scarves or some color ribbons or funny groucho glasses or something. So tired of their childishness, we are.
Call everyone! EMAIL these jacka**e*! I am so ticked!
The optics are terrible. The Rep majority won’t be visible. And the Dems will appear to be larger in numbers than they actually are. Wait until Obama says something the Dems can applaud and the Reps can’t. It will look like the entire Congress is giving him a standing ovation.
This sets the stage for what is to come and you can bet the Rats are laughing and high fiving right now.
Hey stupid pubby, you want to be a scumbag dhim, fine, just don’t ask me to pay for it.
Boehner won’t be coming through with anything. He’s too busy wiping his eyes! Talk about WEAK!!
Start calling, writing faxing and emailing, overload the system (cloward and Piven) he he he he he he
Have we heard any Dim make the same suggestion for the Senate? (Can’t believe the Republicans; they still don’t know how to be the majority.)
I called McCain’s office too. Told the gal that I was not surprised that McC was more comfortable sitting with the democrats.
Call my own weasel and was told they were not permitted to state his position on the matter. She got a load of grief from me. He’s a squishy repub who voted for Cap and Trade.
Symbolism over substance.
Big deal, they sit together one night and the next morning the Dems will be complaining whoever the Republican was they sat next to was rude, mean-spirited or just stunk!
It will not temper the hateful rhetoric coming out of the Dems. It will just feed it.
NO! NO! NO!
WHY do these guys roll over (bend over) for the dems? It’s just a ploy so that when Hussein speaks it won’t be so obvious that nobody is standing up to cheer. Our guys disgust me.
If the Republicans are that dumb to fall for this game, then all is lost. The only reason the low life liberal, left-wing, Democrat Party is calling for this is so that Joe & Jane American do not visually see what a horrible beating the Democrats took at the polls on November 2, 2010. Republicans rule the House!!! Let the American voters see the change they wrought.
WAIT....I just had an idea. How about they say, “Yes, this is a good idea IF/after the Dems who DEMONIZED Palin, Rush and Tparty patriots issue a very public and sincere apology to show they are sincere and really MEAN the civility. THEN we all sit together. Aren’t politicians supposed to know how to deal for things? Why do they never put conditions on their cave-ins? Why do they act like they have to just say either yes or no on these things? They can say YES/but or YES/and to put the ball back in the other court.
Act 2011, Scene January
Friends, Americans, Patriots, lend me your ears;
I come to bury the US, not to praise it;
The evil that men do lives after them,
The good is oft interred with their bones,
So let it be with the US ... The noble Obama
Hath told you the US was ambitious:
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath the US answered it ...
Here, under leave of Obama and the rest,
(For Obama is an honourable man;
So are they all; all honourable men)
Come I to speak in the US’s funeral ...
She was my homeland, faithful and just to me:
But Obama says She was ambitious;
And Obama is an honourable man….
She hath brought many illegals home to America,
Whose wages did the general coffers fill:
Did this in the US seem ambitious?
When that the poor have cried, the US hath wept:
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff:
Yet Obama says She was ambitious;
And Obama is an honourable man.
You all did see that on the Inaugural
Justice Roberts twice presented then the oath of office,
Which Obama did twice swear to: was this not ambition?
Yet Obama says She was ambitious;
And, sure, he is an honourable man.
I speak not to disprove what Obama spoke,
But here I am to speak what I do know.
You all did love Her once, not without cause:
What cause withholds you then to mourn for Her?
O judgment! thou art fled to brutish beasts,
And men have lost their reason…. Bear with me;
My heart is in the coffin there with the US,
And I must pause till it come back to me.
…
But yesterday the word of the US might
Have stood against the world; now lies She here.
And few so poor to do Her reverence.
O masters, if I were disposed to stir
Your hearts and minds to mutiny and rage,
I should do Obama wrong, and Pelosi, Reid wrong,
Who, you all know, are honourable men:
I will not do them wrong; I rather choose
To wrong the dead, to wrong myself and you,
Than I will wrong such honourable men.
But here’s a parchment with the seal of the US;
I found it in Her closet, ‘tis Her Constitution:
Let but the commons hear this testament—
Which, pardon me, I do not mean to read—
And they would go and kiss the US’s wounds
And dip their napkins in Her sacred blood,
Yea, beg a rock of Her for memory,
And, dying, mention it within their wills,
Bequeathing it as a rich legacy
Unto their issue.
…
Have patience, gentle friends, I must not read it;
It is not meet you know how the US loved and showered you.
You are not wood, you are not stones, but men;
And, being men, bearing the Constitution of the US,
It will inflame you, it will make you mad:
‘Tis good you know not that you are Her heirs;
For, if you should, O, what would come of it!
Will you be patient? will you stay awhile?
I have o’ershot myself to tell you of it:
I fear I wrong the honourable men
Whose daggers have stabb’d the US; I do fear it.
You will compel me, then, to read the Constitution?
Then make a ring about the corpse of the US,
And let me show you Her that was the Constitution.
Shall I descend? and will you give me leave?
…
If you have tears, prepare to shed them now.
You all do know this mantle: I remember
The first time ever the US put it on;
‘Twas on a summer’s evening, in 1781,
That day She overcame the British:
Look, in this place ran Pelosi’s dagger through:
See what a rent the envious Reid made:
Through this the well-beloved Obama stabb’d;
And as he pluck’d his cursed steel away,
Mark how the blood of the US follow’d it,
As rushing out of doors, to be resolved
If Obama so unkindly knock’d, or no;
For Obama, as you know, was the media’s angel:
Judge, O you gods, how dearly the media loved him!
This was the most unkindest cut of all;
For when the noble US saw Obama stab,
Ingratitude, more strong than traitors’ arms,
Quite vanquish’d her: then burst her mighty heart;
And, in her mantle muffling up her face,
Even at the base of Lincoln’s statua,
Which all the while ran blood, the great US fell.
O, what a fall was there, my countrymen!
Then I, and you, and all of us fell down,
Whilst bloody treason flourish’d over us.
O, now you weep; and, I perceive, you feel
The dint of pity: these are gracious drops.
Kind souls, what, weep you when you but behold
Our dear US’s vesture wounded? Look you here,
Here is Herself, marr’d, as you see, with traitors.
Good friends, sweet friends, let me not stir you up
To such a sudden flood of mutiny.
They that have done this deed are honourable:
What private griefs they have, alas, I know not,
What made them do it: they are wise and honourable,
And will, no doubt, with reasons answer you.
I come not, friends, to steal away your hearts:
I am no orator, as Obama is;
But, as you know me all, a plain blunt man,
That love my friend; and that they know full well
That gave me public leave to speak of Her:
For I have neither wit, nor words, nor worth,
Action, nor utterance, nor the power of speech,
To stir men’s blood: I only speak right on;
I tell you that which you yourselves do know;
Show you the dear US’s wounds, poor poor dumb mouths,
And bid them speak for me...
