Sorry. There is no way I can stomach reading the New Yeccch Slimes. Can’t do it. I get the gist, but like all Slimes articles, it will wind up with the ever childish “TEA Party = Crazies.”

[RocketMan1]

But the first sentence is absolute garbage! "The House Republican leadership, so solid in its opposition to President Obama,"

Tell me .. exactly WHEN was the GOPe in opposition to 0BowMao?! All I see is trumped up hearings which result in exactly ZERO action, while back-slapping with 0BowMao in the Cloak Room over a couple of cocktails and telling him that "we need to make a deal on shamnesty yesterday!"

Like every good Conservative around here, I **WISH** that we actually HAD an "opposition" Party!

[DoughtyOne]

The House Republican leadership, so solid in its opposition to President Obama, was torn apart Tuesday by the defeat of its most influential conservative voice...

Even when they get it, they still don't get it.

This guy was no Conservative. IDIOTS!

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

You saved me the trouble of posting just that.Thank you.

[Bullish]

Maybe some of the GOP-e will start to realize they’re getting way too comfy with the enemy and the voters are sick of it. Hopefully this will punch a hole or two in their D.C. cacoon.

[Bullish]

If you're not vociferously anti-Barry 24/7, you may as well be with him.

That is succinct and very true my friend.

The House Republican leadership, so solid in its opposition to President Obama...

Very considerate of the Old Gray Whore to point out in a mere 12 words that there's no point in reading the rest of the "article".

Most conservative voice? Conserving what?

WASHINGTON — The House Republican leadership, so solid in its opposition to President Obama Where was Cantor last fall during the shut down? How did he vote on the bill? What was his vote on the debt this spring? Who was the weasel that went to floriduh to conspire against the tea party? Cantor got what he deserved. A nationally reported political ass kicking for selling out the Base of the Republican Party!

Sorry, paragraphs are good....

They’re both good and so right. :)

[skinkinthegrass]

If the mssg. is good, paragraphs aren't important,
the mssg. was sent and was heard wide and far.

most likely doom any ambitious legislation, possibly through the next presidential election

Good! That is why it was worth the effort to defeat Cantor.

Look at the leadershit of the demoncrap party, all of them are from very dark blue states. No red states moderates to be found.

The GOP expects conservatives to be satisfied with blue state RINOs calling all the shots. Cantor’s a$$ whoopin’ wasn’t a shot across the bow, it was a water level direct hit!

[nhwingut]

The article actually cites anti Semitism. It says the district became more rural, more gun oriented, more conservative (ie more racist). So Cantor’s “religion can’t be overlooked.” Amazing.

[Beagle8U]

Yep, I saw that too.
