I bet he's weeping with joy
« on: November 13, 2014, 02:17:28 PM »
It appears House Republicans are sticking with everyone's favorite Oompa-Loompa as Speaker. I'm sure his legendary resolve and terrifyingly freakish appearance will cow the Democrats into submission. In other news, he's already making overtures about caving on immigration.

My bet is no one else wanted it.

The GOP has a lock on the carrot, sweet potato, and squash vote. 

If you were wondering if the GOP was a party worthy of your support, consider that the GOP Representatives picked this Man Tan addict as their leader.

Quote
Man Tan is a refined and natural gradual tan, enriched with organic ingredients, and a unique combination of essential oils. This thick and luxurious cream gives your skin a soft golden colour, with the aromas of man tan all year round.

As the tan develops, vitamin E and certified shea butter work to nourish and soften skin, without blocking pores, while the soothing and masculine aromas of Lemongrass, Rosemary and Bulgarian Lavender mixed with coconut oil recall the scents of summer.

An added benefit to Man Tan is that you will become more in touch with your feelings and get weepy at the thought of the President saying nice things about you after you mortgaged the souls of your descendants to the government for seven generations for those few, sweet words.

When did male politicians start weeping about everything? Do any soldiers ever weep?

In country a lot of us cried at Tapia's memorial service, and I know more did when we got back home and interacted with his wife and kids.

Time and place man, time and place.

Soldiers, Airmen, Marines and Sailors all weep/cry.  Just do so in our own private ways.

So if you were the Speaker of the House (or Floor Leader of the Senate) would you bring up bills that you know didn't have enough votes to pass?

Damn straight.  Make the opposition squirm and make their agenda plain. 

Likely, now with a GOP Senate majority, that some bills will even get to BHO's desk.  Make him veto them.

Yep. Make people go on record on those bills.

Or at least go on record as never doing anything but voting present.

Probably why we aren't politicians. :)

I know they do, Fistful. I just don't think they do so at the drop of a hat when there's cameras near.

Sorry if I gave the wrong impression.
