HOUSE REPUBLICAN WHIP
Mary Fallin
Oklahoma-5th, Republican
1432 Longworth HOB
Washington, DC 20515-3605
Phone: (202) 225-2132
Just spoke to her staff..she is still there on the house floor:)
I just called and said "There's a Republican revolt going on int the House Chamber and I wasn't seeing much coverage of it." I got a run around on it. Was told several times "There are no cameras on now. Cameras are not allowed." I objected, politely, that the story could still be covered.
He seemed mildly irritated that I would question that and asked if I wanted to talk to (name garbled) and I said yes. Got a phone tree that led to leaving a recorded message. I did...
"There's a Republican revolt going on in the House Chamber. I understand that the cameras are turned off. You can still cover the story. Thank you."
I find it very ironic that C-SPAN is covering the topic it is while there’s a revolt going on in the House.
>>THE GREAT ONE is my leader!!!!He’ll be ALL over this!!!<<
Of all people, I trust HE will be on this like white on rice. Levin is the best but we only get him at 8:00. Boo.
AMEN! AMEN! AMEN! PRECIOUS DEAR HEART.
Please check out the FR link & post#76 at my tagline.
Would love to have your response, Luv W.

I really wish Fox would do something... arg
I just got off the phone with a member of Mike Rogers’s (R-AL) staff. She did not know that any members were on the floor. She just had the TV on and didn’t know that Pelosi had cut the juice.
Anyway, Rogers is on his way back home to Alabama. But yesterday he introduced a bill to drill in ANWR. At this moment I do not know the gist of that bill; I’ll track it down.
I also informed her that I’ll be calling the White House requesting the House be called back into session; that we need to do something about oil NOW and it wasn’t time to go on vacation.
She was very polite and sweet and did her job well.

Oh heck no! YOU alerted the troops, we just are out here doing whatever we can ;)
Thank you!

Dennis the Menace may step in a hornets nest with all the indictments coming down on OH 10th Dems.
Maybe they discovered where those ‘unexplained’ 10,000+ votes came from!
C-Span 1 is congress. C-Span 2 is the senate. I have Direct TV and get both. On C-Span 1 it's the house channel and a hearing on guns.
I’m out of town. I’ve been checking around with other chapter members. No luck so far.
Reformatted as I was about to post the same :)
Update 4 - The scene on the floor is kind of crazy. Normally, members are not allowed to speak directly to the visitor galleries, or visitors are prohibited from cheering. But in this case, the members are walking up and down on the floor during their speeches, standing on cheers, the visitors are cheering loudly. Some members even brought in visitors, who are now sitting on the House floor in the seats normally filled by lawmakers, cheering and clapping. Very funny.
Democrats faced a choice here - should they leave the cameras on and let Republicans rip Pelosi & Co. on C-Span, or should they leave the cameras off and let the Republicans have their “tantrum,” as one Democratic aide characterized it, with the cameras off. So the cameras are off, but Republicans, and the crowd, are clearly enjoying the scene.
Uodate 5 - Republicans are literally hugging each other on the House floor. Rep. Don Manzullo (R-Ill.), not normally known as an distinguished orator, just gave a rousing speech, accusing Democrats of stifling dissent. He referenced President John Quincy Adams, who returned as a House member after being defeated in his bid for re-election as president. Waving his arms and yelling, Manzullo brought the crowd (including a lot of staff shipped in by GOP leaders to fill up the place), and he left the floor to hugs from his colleagues. You don’t see that up here every day.
Update 6 - Rep Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) just pretended to be a Democrat. He stood on the other side of the chaber and listed all of the GOP bills that the Dems killed.
He then said “I am a Democrat and here is my energy plan” and he held up a picture of an old VW Bug with a sail attached to it. He paraded around he house floor with the sign while the crowd cheered.
YOU ROCK!!!
so great to see you!!
It is now reported that Dennis has left the building. ;)

It just keeps getting better and better.....
Nice one. It's be nice if we had some people from Japan or maybe even China call in and raise hell about it too. :)
Still ... Chile's way the hell down there. You near Santiago or further south?
Sent Pelosi an e-mail...
told her that writing books was not her strong suit and
she should take care of her day job.
I hope my rep shows some balls and gets over there.
LOVE IT! LOL
I just heard something about congress, but they are talking
about little Callie mostly.
