BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: You know what the Democrats are doing today, in the House of Representatives? They're actually conducting a sit-in. I actually saw a picture of John Lewis and Nancy Pelosi sitting on the floor of the House of Representatives -- like children, like Occupy Wall Street -- to protest the defeat of gun control bills in the Senate.
PELOSI: A moment of silence, a moment of peace, a moment of truth. For so many names to remember.
SITTERS: (chanting) No break! No bill!
RUSH: I don't know if you can understand it. They are saying, "No break! No bill! No break! No bill!" and what they started was Pelosi saying, "A moment of silence, a moment of peace, a moment of truth." And then there was a moment of silence. For so many names to remember. Think she was talking about Democrats gunned down in Chicago? Kind of doubt it. Kind of doubt that's what was in her mind at the moment.
END TRANSCRIPT
If they continue disrupting the House and displaying lack of decorum have the Sgt at Arms remove them. Once order is restored get to work on Reprimands.
I was told that they joined arms and actually sang
“We Shall Overcome”. Almost hurled my lunch.
foxnews is covering this bullsh*t live. retards. nothing new, just different “experts” blathering away into the night.
the cameras are already off. ryan should drop the wifi and jam the 4g signal in and out of that place. those pompous bastards would go home the second they found out they weren’t getting any publicity.
this has as much to do with civil rights as indigestion. these guys are totally out of ideas; coupling everything with their last big social victory 50 years ago proves how morally empty they really are.
Ryan is unfit to be Speaker. He must maintain order, not “give them space to protest”.
Ryan is not doing his job and is allowing the Democrats to mock the House of Representatives.
what would you suggest? drag them out in cuffs? that’s what these bastards want. some of these guys are still reliving their shining moment in the civil rights struggle — 50 damn years ago.
Demand that they come to order or leave, failing that have the Sgt at Arms remove them.
the latter is precisely what a sit-in is designed to provoke. forcible removal.
So what?
If they complain then expel them.
The Democrats’ behavior is entirely unacceptable.
Each House may determine the Rules of its Proceedings, punish its Members for disorderly Behavior, and, with the Concurrence of two thirds, expel a Member. - U.S. Const. art. I, § 5
In cases of extreme disorder the Speaker may direct the Sergeant-at-Arms to enforce order with the mace.

Just turn out the lights and lock the doors already!
The blame the Dems for trying to shut down the gov’t
presentation of the mace isn’t going to phase those zealots.
Turn out the lights the parties over
That picture is hilarious, and dead on accurate.
Damn.... a house fillibuster
it is a non event to embellish re election credentials that are otherwise tarnished
it matters not
