	"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton "We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan "A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792 "It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

It would be far more honest for King to run as a democrat.

“My concern is a lot of things are going to be dead and pushed aside,” King said. “I’m concerned that the Ted Cruz supporters, the Rand Paul supporters, are going to use this as an excuse to basically stop the government from functioning. Thank god there’s no debt ceiling bill coming up. Thank god there’s no way to shut the government down in the next few months, because I think we’ll get bogged down in those side issues. I think we’re going to see basically the status quo over in the next six months.”

It appears to me that King is out of touch with the majority of the American people he is supposed to represent.

Does King realize that a "lot of things" need to be dead and pushed aside, especially because they are destroying our culture, our constitutional form of government, and our economy?

We recommend that Mr. King take a time out to reflect on his lack of common sense, and to reflect of what the people who elected him to office want him to do. He appears to be an out-of-touch establishment Republican.

Get out of D. C. for awhile Mr. King; talk to your constituents, not those giving you the big money, but the "little people" like the masses of ignored veterans, jobless, hopeless, worried formerly middle class voters.

[Dick Bachert]

And this is a BAD thing??

[Dead Corpse]

Stop Gov’t from Functioning

Considering 90% of what our FedGov is currently doing far exceeds it's Constitution mandate?

GOOD!

Shut it all down.

[Blue Highway]

Peter King is a NY liberal posing as a RINO Republican. King, we see through the veneer and even your phony RINO disguise is enough to want you gone. Time to resign you phony fraud.

Thank god there’s no way to shut the government down in the next few months

Having the government up and running the last few years has really done us all a tremendous amount of good......

Rep. King, please, just shut up.

[Kenny]

Personally, I wish government would stop functioning period. Every time they pass a bill, any bill, my freedom suffers another hit.

[LibertyJihad]

Cruz cannot stop government from functioning when it is already incapable of functioning properly. King is a douche.

[Redmen4ever]

Am I the only person who’s thinking Peter King is going to switch to the other party?

[mulligan]

If that should happen, what a glorious day that would be. As a matter of fact, it is not really functioning very well today. And ‘no functioning’ would be a great improvement.

[depressed in 06]

Representative Peter King (R-NY) warned on Morning Joe Wednesday morning that the Rand Paul/Ted Cruz wing of the Republican Party would use House Majority Leader Eric Cantor’s (R-VA) surprise defeat last night to push a far-right agenda bent on shutting the government down.

And, that's a bad thing!?

[zerosix]

"Stop (this) government from functioning..."

Please, from your mouth to God's ears.

Promises, promises....

[Mr. K]

They spent the last two months laughing at how the TEA party is dead and now they are all panicked by one loss...

Lindsay-girl just scraped by with 56% of the vote... not a strong endorsement for an incumbent in an OPEN primary

[kempster]

Title should end with the words, “and we better damn we’ll listen”.

[Busko]

King is becoming irrelevant. Some must have got in side his head.

[Envisioning]

Hey Peter, I wouldn’t call what you all have been doing “functioning government”.

[erod]

Stop functioning?

The GOPe and Cantor are running a do-nothing-congress for conservative ideas! Maybe we can get some better leadership, boot Boehner and get something done, this may be the first step!
