Jim Jordan, er, Gym Jordan, says the Founding Fathers wanted
a political party to come lose to physical violence in electing a Speaker, and
claims this was no different than the vote to elect Pelosi. Except Pelosi’s
vote didn’t take 15 tries And she didn’t jump out of her seat and rush another member
of Congress demanding a vote.
Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Traitor Greene are sill fighting
over who gets to be the pretty girl in Congress and who gets to fuck the
newbies under the bleachers.
Speaking of Large Marge did you notice how many times her picture
was taken with George Whatever-His-Name-Is-This-Week? I don’t think she likes
him but she’s never one to turn down a chance to get her fugly mug on TV.
Matt Gaetz said he would never ever never vote for McCarthy
and then, after a week’s worth of raising money and campaigning on that stance,
he voted for McCarthy … right after another member threatened to physically
assault him.
Best of all was Kevin McCarthy being barely elected on his
fifteenth try, smiling and joking like this was business as usual when how he
got elected was by allowing just one member of Congress a vote to have him
removed. The Wind Down clock is already running, Kev.
The GOP think they have this all locked up and will rule
this party and this country and yet they can’t even agree on a Speaker.

The Trump cultists are going to fail in their attempted hijacking, and shortly, the indictments are going to start falling. At that point, they'll pull out their steely, little knives and the bloodletting will commence.
ReplyDeleteI wonder ...
DeleteWhile I hope that Dave R is right I am still of the "I'll believe it when I see it" group. While there may be indictments I doubt that anyone of them will spend a night in a room with bars on the doors and windows.
ReplyDeleteBut we can dream, and I think some might, because the higher-ups will sell the others straight down the stream if the chance arises.
DeleteThat photo should be on billboards all over the country.
ReplyDeleteIf only ....
DeleteI've always hated clowns.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you Deedles; they're creepy
DeleteThen the GOP is terrifying.
DeleteI am not an admirer of Bubblehead but you have to give her props for NOT looking as tawdry and cheap as Margarine.
ReplyDeleteThat homophobic grooming children with guns asshat gets no props from me.
DeleteIt was amazing to watch crazy as it was.
ReplyDeleteWill they do better...? Doubtful.
xoxo :-)
You only do better when you know better and they don't.

What is going on is crazy as a kindergartener hyped up on birthday cake.
ReplyDeleteSit back and observe.
Every time the Republicans speak to the media-print/television- they try to be sly and go to "whataboutism."
I wish the media-Democrats'-would learn how to counter that. The Republicans' are hearing what is said but are shouting "Hey look over there!" , "There is something shinny over there!" And the media falls for it every time.
Even I know what the talking points points are at this point-Hunter Biden's laptop, "undesirables" coming across the southern border, drugs coming across the Mexican border , crime, grooming, inflation, critical race theory.... We all need a Pete B. in our back pocket to stop them dead in their tracks.
The Republicans' protests too much.
And if I hear one more time "the American people" I am going to puke.
Buckle up folks. It's going to be wild, bumpy ride for the next two years.
PS-I am taking bets on how long McCarthy will last before someone throws down the gauntlet of a vote of no confidence.
The GOP can't even smoothly elect a Speaker and they think the party will come together??? Delusional AF.
DeleteWe're fucked. We're all fucked when the GOP has control of anything.
ReplyDeleteLove,

Hopefully some moderate GOPers will stand against the loons and liars.

I say let's go back to the Roman times, throw them in the arena of a Coliseum with some very loose hungry tigers let them all claw and fight their way out. I'm sick of all of them. And I already can't wait to see how long George Santos stays in before he's kicked out. I can't believe he's even being left allowed to stay in.
ReplyDeleteGOP hypocrisy at its best.
DeleteFuck 'em all.
Let’s see how long McCarthy lasts. I think Frosty the Snowman will have a longer lifespan. It should be entertaining watching the ReThugs turning on each other.
ReplyDeleteSeeing this from across the ocean - it has all been a strange and rather puzzling affair. Here a speaker is essentially someone who chairs proceedings. He or she is expected to behave in a neutral manner and doesn't have enormous political clout.
ReplyDeleteNot sure what that show was all about... but I do hope it's not renewed for another season.
ReplyDeleteIt is going to be a difficult House to work with or in.
ReplyDeleteThe Republicans are barely holding it together. And it won't last for long.
ReplyDeleteI think Marge is the only member of Congress who will speak to George Santos. Every time I see a picture of him he's by himself. (Unless he's with her.)
