Oh boy, another useless Repubic vajayjay.
What the Hell would we ever do without these “guys” ;/
Taking political cover behind the “continuing resolution” explains the purpose of a “continuing” resolution doesn’t it? All things are cover for the pols, or else they will never see the light of day.
In other words, they’re not going to do anything at all.
Just another coward Rino, there ain't no other way to put it.
And conservatives need to boycott RINO candidates, whether in primaries or in the general elections against Democrats.
In the past I voted for McCain, and Romney nationally, and for Scott Brown in Massachusetts. But I guess it depends on your belief in how far gone this nation is, and what it will take to restore it, assuming that is even possible at this point.
Personally, I now believe that the only way to save this nation now (assuming such a thing is still possible) is to put conservatives in political offices and enact an agenda based on free markets, limited government and the rule of law. As long as we have a Republican party that actively opposes those ends (and we do, obviously), then I believe our only (slim) hope is drastic action.
As long as the Republican Party believes it can continue to survive by being Democrat-lite, it will never make the necessary change of direction.
Only when the Republican party understands that it must change or die can we hope to turn this country around. Our too-long-serving entrenched establishment politicians can still enjoy their comfy lifestyles, their wealth, power and prestige as members of a minority party. So why should they bother to change direction?
Surely a John Boehner (or an Eric Cantor -- had he not been defeated -- or a Mitch McConnell) would be just as happy to be minority leaders if the election cycle didn't go their way. Yes, they would prefer to be majority leaders, but what good would it be to them if a conservative Republican Party won the majority and then threw them out of their cushy positions and all those perks, replacing them with real conservatives?
Ask yourself -- which do you think Mitch McConnell would prefer -- a majority Republican party in which he was stripped of his position by a conservative majority, or a minority Republican party in which he could remain Senate minority leader because the majority of Republican senators were RINOs?
You may argue that we have no time to wait for the Republicans to realize that their only choice is to change or die as a viable party. But if we don't have time for that, then what makes you think we have time to wait for the RINOs and the GOP-e to pursue a "moderately marginal" course of action designed only to maintain their personal fiefdoms at the expense of a free America operating under the rule of Constitutional law?
The GOP had majority power in the House and Senate, and occupied the White House, 10 years ago. What did all that power do to move the agenda of liberty forward? Answer: nothing.
A GOP that cannot even sell liberty, limited governments and free markets to the American people is worse than useless. It is a party of tyranny enablers, and I will have none of it.
Unbelievably, today we are facing once again the stark choice between liberty and death.
Once again, these are the times that try men's souls. Conservatives need to be waging aggressive war against the totalitarian leftist tyrants on all fronts -- in the branches of government at the federal and state level, in academia, in the media, through public demonstrations, and in the voting booth.
You have apparently made your choice about the best way to proceed from this point on. But I respectfully disagree with that choice. I am done enabling.
If we really are to lose the greatest country in the history of the world, then let's at least be fighting for it when it goes down.
And who knows, maybe -- just maybe, if we show sufficient resolve and conviction -- divine Providence will once again provide the support that gave our founders their unlikely victory in 1776, and grant us once again the "new birth of freedom" that Lincoln called for a century later.
But, but...
If you DON’T listen to Obama’s plea to “impeach” him
And if you DON’T call Obama’s bluff by shutting down the Government,
THEN how can Obama “gin up” his low-information voter base?
How can he keep Harry Reed as his evil puppet in the Senate?
Why vote Republican? They witness Obama’s progressive destruction of our country, and they do nothing. They neither use the power of the purse nor promote impeachment. They are coequally responsible for the demise of freedom.
“Scalise ... also indicated that Republicans will not use their power of the purse to stop the president ... “We’re going to keep the government running at current levels,” Scalise said, referring to a continuing resolution that the House will take up after its August recess to keep the government operating when the fiscal year ends on Sept. 30.”
Well, it didn’t take Scalise long in a “leadership” position to show where he stands.
Boehner/McCarthy/Scalise/McMorris-Rodgers won’t impeach and they won’t use their constitutional power of the purse to reign the Kenyan Fraud in.
That leaves as their only alternative making ugly faces at Barry during State of the Union speeches.
With friends like Republicans, who needs enemies?
Republicans have become nothing more than enablers for the communist left; accessories to tyranny.
Republicans have become nothing more than enablers for the communist left; accessories to tyranny.
More of the same, might as well have kept Cantor.
Republicans FINANCED all that Obama has done.. ON PURPOSE...
He could have been cut off at the knees.. but wasn’t..
WHO made Obamanomics POSSIBLE.?.. <<-— REPUBLICANS THATS WHO..
The federal givernment has been shadowed for a long time.. i.e. shadow government..
Obama just made it OBVIOUS.. and still the people will not revolt..
America seems to have been neutered as well...
American women, blacks, jews have been bred to do what they are told to do...
AND VOTE THAT WAY..
I propose a new law in DC. All GOP Congress critters are required to hang thier spines and cajones in the Senate or House Cloak rooms so that no meaningful legislation will ever be passed again.
Gosh does that not make you feel beter? NOT!

Congress and the Judiciary have abdicated and are no longer viable. They have allowed themselves to be irrelevant. There is just one branch now - GOVERNMENT and it is run by the president. Elected by fraud and deceit in power for the future.
The corporatists have decreed that the money spigot is not to be disrupted under any circumstances.
This Scalise guy is the one that the MSM is trying to label “Tea Party” Rep. Wrong.
He was elected in 2008....two years before the Tea Party TEAnami.
At the moment I agree with Scalise. We need to do nothing to upset the apple cart until after the Nov elections. Then see how it shakes out with retaking the Senate. If that happens the GOP will be in a lot stronger position regarding any action they may feel they have to take agains’t the Kenyan.
