I don't even know what to say.
Read on and you will hear Rodgers, who needs to be gone as soon as possible, claiming that automatic across-the-board spending cuts are "lazy." By this, he means that this is the only fair way to make these cuts which will actually be politically palatable, and so he opposes this measure. He wants to weight each cut individually so that each constituency can come out one-by-one to demagogue the cuts and prevent them.
Okay, I give up. I wanted to give this two party system a try. Forget it. It's time for a third party, the Tea Party.
The GOP is dead to me. Hal Rodgers and posturing lying phony Eric Cantor need to be replaced.

Michelle Backman needs to be in the leadership NOW. I guess we need women they seem to be the only ones with B****
Is this what Mark Levin has been railing a/b today?
You are correct. We will have to run a 3rd party for President in 12 because the Globalist Republicans are going to nominate Jeb Bush. I guarantee it. Maybe we can do some more weeding out of RINOS in the House. I am not going to support another Globalist for President.
I doubt it will be Jeb Bush; but it WILL be a Globalist RINO that is nominated by the Establshment.
Jeb Bush as the Nominee would ASSURE The Messiah a Second Term.......
Time for a big change
the Globalist Republicans are going to nominate Jeb Bush. I guarantee it.
Hahahaha LOL what will your story be when nothing like that happens?
Can someone post a list of how each house member voted?

The blue-blood establishment republicans - spineus lackingtinus
Jeb Bush, forget it. The Huckster is the one you have to worry about.
The text is an excerpt of the link I posted.....not my words.
Well, the way I see it, the Republicans have two more years to get their act together, or our country will be destroyed.
If they cannot abandoned their old ways, then we need to kick them to the curb and vote in a new SECOND PARTY.
I’ve said this before. It’s not something we want to do unless we have to. But we are running out of time, and simply cannot let this go any further.
Sarah Palin briefly said as much about half a year ago, I think it was. She would prefer to win with the Republicans. But if they simply cannot pull up their socks and come to the rescue of our country, then they need to go the way of the Whigs that they replaced 150 years ago.
It’s really up to them. But if they make the wrong choice, then it will be up to us.
McCarthy (Majority Whip) and Cantor (Majority Leader) both voted with Dems to block the addt’l $22M in cuts.
WTF!
I visited clerk.house.gov & noticed they don’t have any of the roll call votes listed for today (2/18).
I agree. There needs to be a real third party, not one that’s going to hand the White House over to an even worse choice, but a wise one, that works from a local and state level, electing representatives into legislatures especially.
This Republican business-as-usual nonsense was the risk the tea party took when choosing to work through an already established party. Of course the Republicans would welcome them - they were dead in the water without them. But if it’s not to be a situation where the tea party is just reviving a Republican Party that should maybe have died a natural death from its betrayal of the Americans who believed in it, then the tea party must become The Tea Party.
Even if the Republican Party remains larger, the third party, if done right, will bring them to heel by drawing off their votes whenever they stray, in local elections, county and state governments, legislatures, wherever it needs to happen. Tea partiers care about saving America, seems to me, not saving the Republican Party.
Still trying to find roll call vote info & stumbled across this nugget:
Idaho Republican Mike Simpson, a senior member of the Appropriations committee, defended the level of the cuts in the overall bill and said the committee’s approach to look at each agency separately was preferable to across the board cuts.
“This goes too far,” Simpson said.
$22 billion goes too far? We’re screwed.
For you posters here that have been defending Bonehead, Cantor and the old guard, I hope u open your eyes to what’s going on.
Watch and learn.
Wanna bet?
How much?
