his is no way an indictment of Cruz. He has fought the good fight, and fought it well. But the moment of truth is upon him, for the fight is now over. If he stays in the party, he becomes part of the problem, not the solution. It is time to break free, and those that don't show courage and leadership should not be followed.

Agreed! I love Cruz, but I'm done with the GOP. I would love to vote for him, but it ain't gonna happen as long as he has an R next to his name.

” All the elite money will be for naught when Conservatives deny the GOP the Presidency in 2016.”

Got news for you. The Republicans DON’T WANT TO WIN in the next election. They wanted to lose in the last two, when they backed 2 gomers who couldn’t win.

The Head Cheeto ends his remarks, to applause and a standing ovation.

John Conyers of MI—a DEM—gives the Weeper the oath of office.

Lightning should REALLY strike the dome now....

I have nothing but contempt for any freeper that openly collaborates with evil. No one professing conservatism should do anything but fight against these frauds. THEY are the root cause of the corruption in the GOP because knowing better, they back, protect and support it.

When the furthest right of all sites is lousy with these liberals, what hope is there for changing the minds of the not so politically aware? I wish someone out there would factually explain how. I wish someone would set a date to hold feet to fire and enforce it. I wish people would stop getting pissed today and running to the GOP voting booth tomorrow.

And I want a pony.

By innuendo and illustration boehner called conservatives pests, who obstruct what he calls the harvest.

Allowed but still disrespectful.

If the House is not in session, not involved in official House business, then let little timmy crap on the carpet. But when conducting official business, keep them off the floor.

To do otherwise is disrespectful and trivializing the House and boring the chill'ren as they are being used as a prop.

Agree. The GOP wouldn’t keep sending up Gomers for Prez, if they truly wanted to win...and win big.

Well, I guess they all got to vote BEFORE they were sworn in!

I noticed that this morning too. The roads were in atrocious condition and in 50+ miles I counted exactly 3 salt trucks. And one was in Baltimore.

And this was 295 to 495 to work. Not exactly back roads either.

I thought it highly “unprepared” for how miserably snow effects this area, and people’s ability (or non ability) to drive, that there would be so few out and about. Even at the early hour I travel.

I’m not one for conspiracy theories but this was a “hmm” moment for me. Given how the lower number of house members helped Boner and all.

Yesterday one thread had one longtime freeper saying we have to stop fighting abortion and another long time freeper on another thread said we had to stop fighting against gay agendas.

I cant IMAGINE why we have frauds elected to power.

I never said there was any hope. Short of a miracle, the globalists have won. They own both parties now, and have nothing but money.

Jim, they voted for Speaker BEFORE they were sworn in.
How does that work?

Spot on. If the vote was too close for comfort, more capos would vote present, Good insight. That is also why THAT witch first and foremost gave the hat tip to the Cuomo funeral delegation. The Chicago way.

Plus the squatter in the White Hut sends the middle finger DURING the vote.

Belize is starting to look good.
