202-225-0100 and let Nancy and her idiotic message boy know to turn the lights back on because America is watching.
And... of course... CSPAN is not covering this.
We need a list of the twenty Congress critters who are staying on, so we can send them thank you cards...
That is beautiful.
Somebody needs to get an internet camera hookup in there and broadcast this stuff to the country. Let everybody see how the Pelosi Democrats shut down debate and leave the country’s economy in the lurch to go on their fabulous vacations. Is Pelosi using her taxpayer-supplied jet to head back to the wine country and her multimillion dollar estate?
Grrrr.
This is hilarious. I’m pleased with this turn of events.
Keep up the pressure!! Tell everyone you know about this. Americans needs to know that Peolsi stands in the way of lower gas prices. She is taking away our representation by not allowing a vote.
“This is the people’s House,” Rep, Thaddeus McCotter (R-Mich.) said. “This is not Pelosi’s politiburo.”
Man I would have *loved* to have seen that!
But C’mon...Surely there are Video cameras the Republicans can bring in, to record this Revolt against this Tyrannical
overthrowing of the will of the People, of their Constitutional representatives..by the usurpers Pelosi and Reid and their “ruling class” ilk???
Bush should call Congress back into session
Why won’t President Bush call a Special Session. Is there some strategy here such as the Dems geting blamed in the Fall or just that Bush doesn’t want the open conflict?
A conservative sit-in in the making.....If I lived near Washington I’d drive there and show my support. The pond scum democrats are screwing America!!!
Get on the phones and make noise.
Contact your papers and news outlets and make noise.
Bravo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anybody know where Nancy’s vacationing? Anybody know how much gas it takes to fly Nancy and her entourage to wherever she has gone?
More updates to this post:
Update 4: The scene on the floor is kind of crazy. Normally, members are not allowed to speak directly to the visitor galleries, and visitors are prohibited from cheering. But in this case, the members are walking up and down on the floor during their speeches, standing on chairs. 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.
Update 5: Republicans are literally hugging each other on the House floor. Rep. Don Manzullo (R-Ill.), not normally known as a 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 presidential reelection. 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 chamber 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 the House floor with the sign while the crowd cheered.
Unfortunately it is and this stunt by the GOP won't change things. [I will stand corrected if there is widespread coverage of this in the MSM]
The assembled tourists, aides and members in the chamber gave Price and his compatriots a standing ovation. They left the chamber to shouts of “USA! USA! USA!”
Damit Nancy, you are obviously good for something.
You and your dufus little buddy reid have so excited the right — you have almost certainly reversed what could have otherwise been a catastrophic election year for the right. May I be the first to Thank You!
Thank God you two morons have literally snatched defeat from the jaws of victory - hell sweetie, that deserves a standing ovation...bravo, bravo.
Christmas this year is coming to the right — on election day...
