He was like, oh well, that didn't work, guess I'll go home.
Thanks for the post.
I referenced this on another thread where too many seems resigned to losing, and also to not fighting now.

We should keep fighting!
And also get rid of Boehner.
(It bothers me that I have learned how to spell his name, though the spell check keeps making other suggestions...)
Question-we have seen “Republicans” in Congress, after being elected as Republicans, unilaterally decide to switch to the other party. (We have seen a very instances of the opposite occur). Could the conservatives, the “Tea Party” Republicans in Congress decide to switch to Independents, or even call themselves by an entirely new party name (Tea Party, Constitutionalist, whatever)? Would that be against any parliamentary rules?
You didn’t fight for anything.
You just rolled over and died.
Should have saved us all time and did this 2 weeks ago (since it was a forgone conclusion anyway...)
The last time I was this nauseated by the gutless party was in Sep/Oct 1990, when the gutless unprincipled coward George Herbert Walker Bush, the archetypal spineless RINO, broke his solemn anti-tax pledge and kissed his worthless butt and second term goodbye. BTW, do these people actually think that adding another trillion to the credit card is going to avoid a credit downgrade? Sheer madness. It’s Weimar time, folks.
Excuse me but don’t ALL spending bills have to originate in the house?
What boner is doing it telling Harry Reid “You’re now in charge of the house.”
They should have just bent over and presented behind the first day. ‘We said, please Mr. Dictator sir,we don’t want to obey you’- and he said, ‘Bow, slaves, its obedience or destruction and you will be blamed.’ So we said, ‘okaaaay’.
FOOLS! HE considers them irrelevant, now he has convinced some of their constituents that they are impediments to the greater good. They will be out of jobs- Congress disbanded-soon.
So, how much is it going to cost to move the cliffs back to reopen the Grand Canyon? Bunch of pansies running the country. Not that my vote counts for much and probably not at all in voting fixes, but I will have my say next time.
This system of government has reached an end that can’t be fixed at the ballot box any more.
Jeff, imagine Winston Churchill on the Lord Haw-haw show...
“We fought the good fight, we just didn’t win.”
Nope, you can’t imagine that and neither can I.
Headline: Kerensky duma reaches bi-partizan agreement
with communist party. Well, we saw how that turned out,
amazing to see it all happening again.
We have been betrayed one more time.
The fix, a/k/a betrayal is in My FRiend. The only shame is that 99% don’t give a damn and the other 1% don’t care.
The only fight Boehner engaged in was towards Conservatives. He continually surrenders to Obama.
It’s as if the House doesn’t exist.
They could simply refuse to go along, and the president and senate would have ZERO recourse but to deal.
The House was given the ultimate power over the US government....NOT the president.
A speaker with his caucus behind him cannot be defeated.
We? Since when has whiny pants ever fought for anything other than turning more to the dark side?
The party of losers and appeasers.
You know why? Follow the money.
The hell with the Republicans.
The whole party at this point, should change its name to the Spelunker Party, since they all love to cave.
Congress hasn’t even voted yet and Bonehead says we lost??
The GOP Ruling Class wanted to lose, and now they’re proud of it. If there is anything positive out of this they won’t mention it.
