What is this crap that they have to “request” from Boner to attend. Has the Tea Party been co-opted already?

The Royal Congress of 12 bill passed, did it not?
Yes. They are already beaten by this feeble metrosexual quisling.
You couldn't tell by the way they caved on the debt increase fiasco? The majority of these new congress folks are not worth the effort or faith we placed in them. I feel very let down and hope all those who voted for that mess are primaried. Once again we were simply lied to and screwed over. As far as that asshat Boehner goes I really can't even discuss that POS without my blood pressure exploding so I'll stop here.
They don’t have to request permission to attend.
They need permission to spend your $$ doing it.
Because they were asking to go in an “official capacity”. Which means taxpayer-funded. Didn’t you read the story. How is it a good thing for Congressmen to travel to Israel, on the public dime, during a giant recession?
It’s the ‘official’ and ‘fact-finding’ qualifiers that required the request, and resulted in the denial. In this instance, I think Boehner is right.
Certainly, Beck would have no problem funding their trip, tho again House rules might preclude a ‘gift’ of the airfare and expenses, especially to an overseas locale.
Nobody has to request jack chit from Tammy Faye for anything they do. Congressmen/women are only anwerable to their state constituiencies. Get real!. Who in their right mind would be afraid of a guy who is usually out in front of the cameras sniffing in his hanky that the Democrats have effed him.?
