And we now know how much the GOP goons care about those calls.

THE GOP IS DEAD.

I agree .. all I’ve seen are pictures of Boehner scowling and looking like he’s ready to keep his “revenge” going.

But .. if Boehner doesn’t like the phone calls .. I suggest we keep them going. Maybe .. just maybe .. the REAL MESSAGE will get through: WE DON’T APPROVE OF WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND YOU NEED TO STOP OBAMA .. OR WE’RE GOING TO LOSE AMERICA - what a great legacy for the repub party .. but right now they deserve the title of “go along to get along”.

Boehner needs to understand that if we wanted people who would work with Obama we would have voted for Democrats.

I went to the GOP website and emailed them that as long as Boner was in charge I will not vote for repulicans.

“They don’t look rattled to me.”
**************************************************************************************
Well I think they are worried that many of us in the base will have LONG MEMORIES on this vote. And the GOPe leadership is also worried that the conservative members who they were able to SUBVERT to a vote for Boehner will also be worried about our long memories and will be less likely to fall on their swords for Boehner in the future. Because these limp noodle spine conservatives have been made aware that they are being watched by the base.

The revolution draws near and both corrupt parties are going down.

Congressmen are "the People's" representatives. They are not "the Speaker's" representatives. When they voted, in most cases, they were voting as they believed "the People" they represent wished them to vote--a good indication that they might vote on legislation using that same guide, not the "establishment's" guide.

Apparently, their "punishment" is a good indication that "the Speaker" wishes to silence dissenting voices by using coercive and tyrannical measures to do so.

Instead of setting out an example of freedom and adherence to the Constitution's Bill of Rights, the youth of America now have the "progressive" Obama model utilized in the House, a House which now should be using the idea of liberty as their pattern for governing.

After all, isn't that what Harry Reid has done in the Senate?

Master of Lake-Town: And all this talk of a change must be suppressed. We can't afford to let the rabble band together, start making noises. The next you know, they'll start asking questions, forming committees. Launching inquiries.
Alfrid Lickspittle: Out with the old, in with the new.
Master of Lake-Town: What?
Alfrid Lickspittle: That's what they've been saying, Sire. There is even talk of an election.
Master of Lake-Town: An election? That's absurd! I won't stand for it.
Alfrid Lickspittle: I don't think they'd ask you to stand, Sire.

Damn...

One picture really does speak a thousand words, doesn’t it...

And all of those words are “Eff You, shmucks...”

Meet the New Boss... same as the Old Boss.

Oh well... at least SOMEONE got kissed before we get screwed.

For the GOP leadership, the flood of calls was a game changer.

...

The GOP leadership could care less and is not surprised. They’ve known for years that the base is unhappy with them.

They are simply refusing to listen. We have to keep voting out these scoundrels.

If Boner kissed me I’d look just as disgusted as Nancy.

They’re not rattled; they’re shaking with laughter at how they’ve managed to sucker the gullible American people yet again.
