Discussion: Freedom Caucus Members Take Shots At GOP Leaders In New Documentary

How wonderful. The Republican civil war makes me wish I was an arms dealer so I could sell weapons to both sides.

There’s nothing we can do about the fact that right-wing whackos in gerrymandered districts keep electing these embarrassing fools. However, as a demonstration of sanity and common sense, it would be wonderful if the press would stop referring to them as the “Freedom Caucus.” The only freedom they care about is their freedom to control moderates, liberals, and other thinking members of society.

My imagined Variety film review: “The brilliant documentary District of Corruption is a troubling look at the RINO culture of corruption and broken promises that has infected Washington. Every Republican should watch this important film and make the decision to stay home on Election Day just to teach them a lesson. I did, and I will.”

What – you were expecting, “I laughed, I cried, I overpaid for popcorn!”?

“Freedom Caucus Members Take Shots At GOP Leaders.”

From that headline, I assumed Louie Gohmert and Steve King had finally gone postal on the House floor.

Their ammosexual GOP base will be so disappointed…

Keep it up, guys! If only John Boehner had not “sold out” and had just stood up to the evil Obamacrats, you could have repealed Obamacare by now!

These are not legislators. They are anarchists. Voters should oust every one of them.

You mean, like the “defend the Constitution” part ? ?? —

“For five years we’ve done nothing that was in the Pledge to America,” Huelskamp says in the trailer.

Meadows, meanwhile, argues that “too many career politicians worry about one thing and that is getting re-elected.”

not that I’m personally worried about getting re-elected… I just do it every two years so we in the ‘Freedom’ Caucus can finish the job we started…

There’s still time for Louie to do a handstand in the center of the Capitol Rotunda
and shoot a bottle rocket out his butt —

They really enjoy the freedom to choose the voters they want to vote for them in the gerrymandered districts. Oh, and freedom from people of color (only one Latino) and freedom from having to let more than one women into their caucus.

@randyabraham The film was already made and it’s called House of Turds.

@chicago11 These guys (and one woman) have gerrymandered districts meaning they pick their voters, not the other way around. Anybody inclined against them doesn’t get included in the borders of the district.

Not likely if that is the name they incorporated under, but the press could add some modifiers such as “so-called,” or “self-described,” easily enough, and still be accurate.

Or they could go for the throat with “oxymoronically self-described,” or “misleadingly named.”

And maybe go up a notch in both cases by using caps, and/or italics, and/or bold type.

Nothing irks me more than hearings these whack jobs talk about “the will of the American people.” They represent only the will of gerrymandered districts, not the will of the people. Barack Obama was elected by the American people and if they really wanted to carry out the will of the American people, then they would have been working with Barack Obama.

OH YES WE CAN!

2020 is coming up with a new census. Dems need to vote their hearts out at every level of government from dog catcher to president in every single election.

If you have the option in your state to vote absentee without cause, I highly recommend it.

  • You receive a ballot for EVERY election
  • You can research the candidates or referdums before making a selection
  • You are not subject to the long lines on voting day

If you don’t have the mail-in option, find a way to plug into your local races. The GOTP is very good at this and it is how they build their bench.

We Dems can do it too!

Huelskamp, et al, seem to be complaining that they were promised a pony, and didn’t get one.

Maybe they should have asked if it was a promise that could have been kept?

Their tactics are almost Stalinesque! But how can that be since they love freedom so much?
