actually ... I think we “do” have the 29 votes ... or more ... they’re just waiting quietly ... like a battalion held in reserve for the focused attack ...


I pray you’re right. We desperately need someone who has cojones and a spine to stand up and just say NO to that $$*&%#! in the WH.

If nothing else, the people saying ‘I voted against” wouldn’t be lying about it.

No, you posted your opinion of a false statement as a fact. It isn’t.

Louie Gohmert Reveals ‘Real Intimidation’ Happening in Speaker Battle


“If you don’t win, you’re toast,” Beck said. “And that’s exactly what they’re going to be saying [to those who don't vote for Boehner]. That’s what Boehner is saying to everybody right now. ‘Listen, you don’t vote for me, you don’t play ball with me now, you’re not getting on any committee. You’re not going to be heard from again.’”

“Yes,” Gohmert said. “I tell you what, Glenn, there is some real intimidation going on. Apparently this morning there was a statement released by Boehner’s people saying David Brat was going to vote for him.”

You havent told numerous people to give it time and wait because the GOP will fight the next battle? REALLY? because thats what those words mean. And anyone is free to read them. The first post I ever made to you was over you telling people to not act and let the GOP ‘have time’.

Nope I'm saying that if you're a Conservative and you vote for a Republican, but call them a rino because they aren't conservative enough where do you draw your line?

I'm a Republican who votes for the most conservative candidate I can.
I might not be conservative enough for some, but really I don't care.

Of course they are but only you bother LOL.

Because you’ve said over and over we had to stay on the plantation

Nope. False statement. Never said this either. People are free to migrate to whatever plantation they please.

So why do you then tell people to give the GOP more time and push for party unity?
