That's what is really needed - even though conservatives raise objections to the cost of paying the new reps, which is superficial compared to the current bribery problems. It really needs to be more like triple - 1,500 or so Reps. Lots of new conservative voices who can't be bullied by the Old Guard. Less bang for the buck for K Street manipulators.
yes, i believe so , and they were not afraid to use them .
simple majority voting did it.

You are on a roll and right. Expand that term limit. A YUGE part of the swamp is the staff that runs these congress crutters office. Term limits on the Congress Critters without dismantling the staff only feeds the swamp. Staffs have to be cleaned out also.
=========================================
The Untraceable $8 Billion ObamaCare PR Budget---truly govt fraud at its finest. Egged on by Pelosi, Democrats slavishly voted for Obamacare by an historic straignt-party line vote.
Not one Democrat told Americans about Obamacare's Section 4002---which mandates an $8B untraceable fund to "promote" Obamacare (apparently b/c Boobamba had so little confidence in his signature legislation).
THE PAYOFF--WHO GOT THE MONEY? In 2010 Taxpayers are extorted $500 million, in 2011, $750 million, 2012, $1 billion, 2013, $1.25 billion, 2014, $1.5 billion, and, in 2015 and on, $2 billion
<><> Where is all that money going?
<><> Was cashing-in the incentive in getting the thing passed?
The sound of West Wing wire-transfers to state Democratic organizations and to offshore banks is almost palpable.
============================================
Turns out Obamacare is a vehicle for consolidating Dummycrat power.....complete w/ a multi-billion dollar slush fund financed by your tax dollar.
ITEM---A local couple called 10News concerned after they received an envelope from Obamacare website, Covered California. Inside was a letter discussing voter registration and a registration card pre-marked with an "x" in the box next to Democratic Party.
ITEM---Obamacare web site is also a voter registration site.
The payoff to Landrieu (she lost reelection) should be investigated as an indication of how EVERY Democrat came to vote for Obamacare.
BACKSTORY In the fall of 2009, Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) was trying to get the necessary 60 Dimocrat votes to pass the Affordable Care Act. Reid needed every Dim on board, which gave waffling senators a great deal of leverage.
In Landrieu's case, she connivingly saw that selling her aye vote could get her maybe $200 million federal dollars. Obama complied--- Reid chalked up another vote for Obamacare---but $4.3 went to Landrieu not the $200,000 she had bargained for.
<><> Was Mary the baglady for buying the other senators aye votes?
THE LANDRIEU PAPER TRAIL IS HUGE Landrieu sold her aye vote for a "price." Landrieu was bought off in what Forbes Magazine dubbed "The 'Louisiana Purchase" that included a massive $4.3 Billion to Landrieu.
FORBES REPORTED the Democrats’ nailed Landrieu’s support for Obamacare w/ a greenback bribe. Landrieu, critics believe, pledged her vote in exchange for some $200 million more additional federal funds for Louisiana. Except that, due to a drafting error, the law ended up giving Louisiana $4.3 billion: more than twenty times the assigned amount.

CALL YOUR CONGRESSMAN---Capitol Switchboard 1-866-220-0044
REQUEST DETAILED TAX OUTLAYS--All tax allocations are explicitly detailed in the Congressional Record as to their use and limitations, etc.
Useless Source. Please make sure you get the correct one
Both my husband I have Tri care for life and Medicare. We have no trouble getting care either.
Why McConnell kept it at 60 majority where Dingy Harry had put it when he was Majority leader, is beyond me. Maybe he didn’t want to hurt Harry Reid’s feeling? Arrgh
Useless objection. Logical fallacies (in this case, the genetic fallacy) are “not an argument.”
And the fact that’s all you had concedes defeat. If you had an actual argument or refutation, you would have used it. But you didn’t, so you didn’t.
The Anti-Federalists freaked at a 1:30,000 ratio. They rightly feared an aristocratic House. The 17A rendered the entire Congress an aristocratic, if not oligarchic, assembly.
I’m through with a Congress that isn’t.
Becaue McConn &McCain are rino... thats why it would be better to have McCain and the other 5 or 6 removed from the R roles. and defeat them in the primaries.
Technically Congress is ALREADY on Obamacare...HHS rules (Obama) allowed them to use the “D.C. small business exchange” (SHOP) as a “small business employer” therefore allowing them to use their federal med. ins. subsidy to buy insurance for their “employees”...Mr. Trump could instruct his HHS secretary to disallow Congress’s application for the “SHOP” exchange, thereby making Congress buy Obamacare on the regular individual exchange(s). My understanding anyway.

That’s a valid rebuttal. Thanks.
Your welcome. I think it is the absolute best in my experience compared to what I hear from my friends and family and am very very very thankful I stuck out 22 active duty years to earn it. Absolutely no medical co pays except for a very few drug prescriptions from Express Scripts for the past 8 years! I also have to say as a disabled vet as well I have always received good treatment here in the Philadelphia and South Jersey area VA facilities on less important issues like hearing, eye exams, etc.
I see you are also retired military - God speed and welcome to the golden years! Except for putting up with stupidity from liberals, life is good. Thank God for Donald Trump.
