Letâs see. If McCarthyâs term as Speaker is negative five days, how will the next one beat that record?
why? kevin mccarthy told the truth. after multiple benghazi investigations, another one was a get hillary plan. thanks, kevin for truthfully exposing your own sins.
next one up will likely be Scalise.
I donât disagree that Bush is in over his head, but to think that Trump is qualified to be President stretches the definition of ironic to its breaking point.

Laura doesnât seem to understand that the GOP âestablishmentâ is no longer calling the shots.
Amazing,isnât it? The guy hasnât even been elected, and they are already calling for him to be ousted.
Conservative radio host Laura Ingraham said Thursday night that the Republican establishment should âpull the plugâ on House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthyâs (R-CA) bid to become House speaker.
Had to checkâŚ
Next âbatterâ up is Scalise. After that house caucus is going to the chairmanâs list (while hoping those guys donât have any warts.)
Once again, while Boehnerâs leaving is important, this possible âexplosionâ is now about guys who didnât want to be the guy who replaced John Boehner.
Oh wellâŚ
When youâre too stupid for these folks, man, you are catatonic.
Enough with political correctness, Ingraham! McCarthy told the truth. Stop denying him his First Amendment rights!
McCarthy told the truth, but he also âtalked out of turnâ in regards to that subject. Again the GOP strangely thinks that this subject is a winning hand. Why?
Only they have that answerâŚ
The word âputridâ always seems to come to mind for me when sheâs mentioned.
It really is kind of pathetic that a major national party in this country still relies on having all their decisions made for them by unelected conservative talk radio hosts. Thatâs what you call a weak party apparatus. Is it any wonder they donât know how to govern or legislate? Look who they bother to listen to.
Why? Because it puts Democrats responding on the defensive. Its a twist on the old storyâŚâAccuse your opponent of sleeping with a pig, and let him spend the next few cycles defending himselfâ. Doesnât matter if its not true. And the fact that all Americans are against having sex with farm animals actually helpsâŚbecause the association between your opponent and having sex with farm animals becomes forged in the voters mind. The more he says he did not sleep with a pig, the more the voter hears âcandidate xâŚscrewing pigsâ.
Here we have âHillary did illegal things on email and is hiding somethingâ. No matter how many times she gets out there saying âI did nothing illegalâ, the voter hears âHillaryâŚillegalâ. Doesnât matter that voters donât care about emails, in fact that works to the GOP favor. âHillaryâŚemailsâ becomes forged in their minds.
Hilarious. McCarthy considered unqualified because he told the truth in a weak moment. I suppose Republicans prefer strong liars, but we knew that. (Gingrich, Cheney, Boehner, Cantor, Trump, Fiorina, OâReilly, et alia)
sorry, I donât agree with that. Hillary can now change the topic and claim she is the victim of a vast right-wing conspiracy, That has the additional virtue of being true and McCarthy has provided the proof.
Maddow had a clip of McCarthy trying to burnish his non-existent credentials and act like a grownup a few days ago. The guy is either really bidding to become heir to Norm Crosby, or he is brain-damaged.
Now, being brain-damaged would be entirely appropriate as the most powerful Republican in the country, but simultaneously extremely dangerous when two heartbeats away from the Presidency.
Do toy pigs count? (s)
Then thatâs on them (DNC). The proper answer would be to drag every piece of info out there and make it into what it is: a privacy issue. Right now the current b-n-m over this is about how Russian Intelligence tried to bug the server. Before that it was the Petraeus thread. That latter goes nowhere, because he got probation (and Broadwell isnât likely to do jail time). As to the Russian intelligence matter, its not even known if any of Clintonâs staff hit those attachments.
Again hide nothing. If that makes her the martyr in the end, thatâs on the GOP committees. However that defensive stance is something that needs to be amended.
At last check, guys like Hickenlooper are very poor spokesmen.
Thats right Laura⌠to be house leader you have to be a liar. The GOP is scared shitless b/c they fear that this could be a REAL branding problem when voters consider the time and taxpayer money used & wasted. I sure hope HRC reminds folks about this all the way to 11/16âŚ
