Everything has to be rushed through Congress before Americans wake up and figure out that they are being shafted by their public servants. Look at how long it took for them to figure out they really are going to get the shaft through ObamaCare. We’re all going to feel like we’ve been through a “gay marriage” honeymoon night once Barry’s Commie “Care” gets rolling.

GOP members of the House are COWARDS, whose only concern is to protect their own crummy careers as the country goes down the crapper. There are a couple of exceptions, Steve King, Michelle Bachmann and a few others.
Here's the word from a member of the base to the GOP members in the House. The existence of the GOP is on the razor's edge. All its going to take is one more act of betrayal. So, if you want to protect your crummy little careers, remove Boehner as Speaker. He's a failure and a loser. He's dragging you down.
Removing Boehner and replacing him with a principled constitutionalist, you'll save your careers, you'll save your party and you'll actually take a step in saving the country.
Throw Boehner out NOW. There's no time to lose.
How did Rohrabacher vote in the election for Speaker? Is he only recognizing a problem now? Or only now willing to do something? Doesn't matter, better late than never.
Send the Weeper home to cry.

I’ll believe it when I see it.
And I doubt I will ever see it.

The last “revolt” in November 2012 didn’t go to well.

And he can do it.
He just uses 100% Democrat votes and a few Republicans and it’s a done deal.

- ...by softening its edge on some volatile social issues and altering its image as the party always seemingly "eager to go to war... We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said. [Rand Paul: Time for GOP to soften [immigration, gay marriage] stance]
- One day after announcing on his radio show that he is "truly considering" running in 2014 for the U.S. Senate seat now held by New Jersey's Frank Lautenberg, Rivera amped up his message today in a television interview and a column on the Fox News Latino website... a moderate Republican who is fiscally conservative but also supports gay marriage and Roe v. Wade... [Geraldo Rivera declares himself a 'moderate Republican' as he eyes U.S. Senate run]

If Boehner follows this strategy, he would be abandoning one of the key promises he made to get re-elected as Speaker just a few months ago while several conservative members tried to unseat him. At the time, he guaranteed he would return the House to regular order on all legislation, a promise that ended up helping him turn some who had planned to oppose his re-election as Speaker back into supporters.
Sucks, doesn't it. Boehner's doing to his peers what politicians do to their constituents - and they don't like it. Imagine how we feel, guys? Maybe they'll get as fed up as the voters are.

To: AuntB
Regular orders is the process by which a bill is supposed to come up through the respective committees of jurisdiction and allow members of those committees to offer amendments, an open and transparent process that then is supposed to continue on the House floor.The "regular orders" process has always been a problem for legislation that contains the word "comprehensive" in its title. "Comprehensive" means the bill is loaded with all kinds of repugnant crap provisions that would NEVER pass on their own merit, and so it's best to bury them in one gigantic "comprehensive" bill.

What is this, “Revolt” #273?? The Republicans will do what they do best: bend over and take it.

Conservatives Threaten 'Revolt' if Boehner Rushes Immigration Bill Through House<'i>Empty rhetoric. Bawlin' Boehner knows that the "conservatives" won't do anything but make noise.
We are watching America being sold out by the very people charged with safegaurding our country and no one has the courage to say "enough is enough"!
The thought of what is happening to America makes me ill!

They had their chance, but they voted the POS back in. At least with the likes of Pe-lousy, what you see is what you get.
