Discussion: Ryan's Rule Change Allows GOP To Block LGBT Measure Before Floor Vote

This shouldn’t stop reporters from asking Speaker Ryan why he opposes equal protection under the law for our LGBTQ brothers and sisters and, if he does not, how he is truly different than the bigoted murderer in Orlando.

I hope his lasting legacy as Speaker is the so-called “Ryan Rule” which prevents common sense, popular legislation from passing and consequently results in the Speaker’s party falling out of power.

One more Speaker of the HofR proves to be a gutless politician bowing to pressure from the redneck right.

Oh, that’s right, I forgot, he’s a Repulsive and they are naturally gutless when push comes to shove.

Ryan is the GOP’s Great White Hope

It looks like for now Ryan’s rules fix will be able to keep troublesome
amendments at bay even if it has forced him to limit the more open
process he once promised.
…
How comforting to know that treating people decently is now considered “troublesome”.
You can take your “troublesome amendment” and cram it.

Well, he’s white. I’ll give them that. It’s the “great” and the “hope” I have major problems with.

Republicans are the Party of suppression, minority votes,minority members of the Congress having a voice, anti gun control, anti infrastructure repairs, anti clean air and water, on and on. What a Grand Old Pathetic party the once distinguished political group has become by failing to serve the Nation’s majority citizens in these early years of the 21st Century.

Ah, so this article is why Ms. Fox couldn’t write Fiore’s egoogly.

Poor thing must be heartbroken.

He is a dick, isn’t he? Perfect word, although “jagoff” ( one of my faves from my misspent youth) and “shitstain” are also appropriate monikers for that insidious little turd.

I’m sure the “rule” will change when someone needs a last minute ridiculous amendment that only a portion of the Republicans “need” added to a bill to screw Americans… sigh
