ROFL

These clowns really think that this side-show stunt will have any impact on the public or do anything to prevent that already agreed to deal?

The only way this could be more pathetic for the GOP is if they tried to shut down the Government over it. But events GOP clowns in the House can’t screw it up that much to get into that position… yet.

Maybe Ms. Sneed can help explain why this is going unnoticed on TPM. Made me groan at breakfast and I expected to see more than one article here about Rethug reaction.

Isn’t it adorable how they stomp their tiny little feet when they don’t get their way?

“Congress told him he could not do it.”

Congress can tell Obama whatever it wants. Unless he signs what Congress says, it has zero meaning or effect whatsoever. And if he vetoes it and they can’t overcome it, then it truly has no meaning whatsoever. Apparently, this shithead thinks legislation becomes law just because Congress alone said so…or he at least wants his audience to believe that.

In that pic, Ted looks like he’s begging to be crucified.

“House GOPers were also not deterred by the fact that the maneuver does not to appear to have an practical effect [full stop]”

There it all is…the past eight 50+ years in a nutshell.

I’m sure their plans will go just swimmingly.

No, in their deluded minds they’re just hoping to achieve favorable optics.

Please proceed, Republicans.

Here’s what I know for sure,” Pompeo said, according to Politico. “The American people will be furious

With another waste of time in an institution that’s erasing itself from relevance…But Mike’s to busy pounding his fat fist to notice.

If there is a God may He please send Trump to the White House with Cruz the VP. Granted it will be a disaster but an acute one with much less damage then this long chronic GOP shit has caused. Lets get it over with. Put Trump in the Oval Office. Let him trash the joint. If that doesn’t wake the American people up then they best hope there is a God and that He will save them.

Lets call their bluff. Elect them.

“We will bury you”

Nikita Kruschchev to citizens of a still existing United States

The REThuggs allowed Iran to drastically increase their nuclear capability during the administration of George W. Bush. This deal is the ONLY option to deter Iran (short of sending millions of presently distracted post-Millennials to Military Action). What the Iranian leaders say in screeds like this would still have to be addressed, but, with Military Action, the distracted, video-gaming kids (who have never entertained for one minute that THEY might be called for the Endless Wars the BaggerPols crave) just may decide to place as much attention on politics as their elders…

And this may be what these kids need to become as enraged, politically, as Baggers, who, unlike the kids, have nothing but fantasy issues to be enraged about

I tried to make a bet with Mrs. Von Holst. I wanted to bet her that the GOP wastes so much time on crazy-ass maneuvers and stunts, that, filibusters notwithstanding, a bill will never be passed by both houses by the Sept. 17th deadline. Time will run out, the agreement stands by default, and then the GOP will file a lawsuit in Federal Court to put a stay on implementation because something, something, “rule of law,” something something, “it’s really a treaty”; “Obama is a dictator.”

She refused to take the bet.

If NYT reporting is accurate, Senate GOPers aren’t going along with the Tortillas. The leadership has scheduled a vote. I guess Cruz rulz the House but not the Senate

“The American people will be furious, and properly so because they will have a president who is brazenly violating the law with knowledge and intent and is putting Americans at risk providing $150 billion to terrorists when Congress told him he could not do it."
That’s right. He should do what Saint Ronnie Reagan did and SELL advanced surface to air missiles and parts for their American aircraft to Iranian Radicals as the payoff for them holding 52 Americans hostage for more than a year.
Much better, cause “Ronnie did it”.
This is the most glaring example of Obama Derangement Syndrome I have seen yet from the Tea-Baggers and AIPAC-ass kissers.

Nikita will bury us. Wrong, the GOP will!!!

I saw Terminator:Genisys this weekend. The fact that John Connor was played by a guy who looked like a combination of Ted Cruz and Quentin Tarantino greatly affected my enjoyment of the film.
