Did not see one yet. Trying to access CSPAN on line. Site looks different. Are they requiring a registration to watch?

“Only 401 are present. Majority is 202.”

Not sure how many of those there are R, but that means as much as 45 R have to not vote for Boner.

Could be less, but more than the 29 if there were full attendance and voting.

The entire Mid Atlantic is a nightmare when it snows. Morons every where, crashed all over the roads. It takes hours to get through a thirty minute drive. Granted, it can be a lot of ice because temperatures are more mild than the far north regions but it’s also a ton of idiots who don’t know driving in snow and ice is different than driving in clear weather.

Bunch of wimps in the House is what I’m seeing. Traitors to the voters who want change - even MANY newly elected that PROMISED to vote against.


They’re not wimps. Boehner is doing EXACTLY what they want. Opening up the spending spigots and giving them cover on tough issues like amnesty. So they are voting for him.

Hate to say to the hopeful Conservatives that they can redeem the GOP that we told them so. What happens after today is a combined concerted effort to annihilate Conservatives from any and all influence in the country and establish the bulwarks for permanent fascism.

But aren't we still celebrating our wonderful victory in November, when voting for the lesser of two evils was such sound strategy? Surely, we will reform the GOP from within, and the unicorns will leave extra skittles on my lawn.

Time to burn down Rush’s phone lines and demand he get involved in primaries.

Rothfus: Boehner

He ran as a Tea Party candidate originally, but has been pure Rino. He has failed repeatedly to show a spine and does not represent our district. What a grave disappointment.

His excuse for voting for the CROnimbus Bill was cowardly and lame. He will have to be replaced.

Disgusting.

Mine too Polo. So many incoming promised to vote against & turned around did just the opposite. Even people that are typically conserative voted for him. This is beyond sickening.

Not a dollar, not a vote, for a single GOPer that voted for the tanned and elite B. It’s gonna be painful eventually for the GOP. But I think we wait too long to express our displeasure .. starting NOW we show this is supposed to be OUR government.

And if someone in the GOP elite have skeletons..hey..they need to be drug out now..before the GOP elite do it to Cruz or whoever we might choose.

Boehner is a drunk POS. Besides his alcohol issue he has done something that the Dems. know about.

I have talked to several congressional offices and even the people that answer the phone agree with me when I say “everyone knows Boehner is a drunken fool”. They will say “we know” when you bring it up.

I’m watching C-Span and I’m not seeing what I consider serious people on TV.

What a joke.
