Kevin McCarthy admits that the point of the Benghazi hearings was to damage Hillary Clinton politically. Well there goes that Speaker of the House job.

He said what needs to happen is a Democrat with some balls needs to file an ethics complaint. It has to be someone with a squeaky clean record because it will make them a target of retaliation. But if a complaint is made, the Ethics Committee is required to investigate it. Then they could subpoena all of THEIR emails. We just had a member of the Michigan house expelled for less.

Gowdy is mean, downright evil, as he showed in his ugly attempts to belittle Cecile Richards in the sleazy Republicans efforts to belittle Richards and Planned Parenthood with their lies, even to the point of presenting false documents, asserting they were Planned Parenthood's own corporate documents. Boehner failed because of his own duplicity, not becuase of his sick tears. And Gowdy would fail also because, thankfully, there aren't enough ugly people in the House of Representatives to support him no matter what he does. <br /><br />Gowdy is every bit as bad and nasty as Jason Chaffetz, the other Republican scoundrel who chaired the committed that tried to resort to nastiness and lies in their sick presumption that is the way to govern. The Republicans only bring disgrace to themselves. However, voters, both those who vote and those who do not vote, are even more disgraceful because they have hired such scoundrels to become our government. Shame on "We the people."<br /><br />Don't let anyone claim our government is any form of democracy. Democracy does not elect such incompetence, such meanness to do their governing. Democracy does not allow gerrymandering and call it democracy. Democracy does not include a senate with equal representation for states of extremely unequal populations. Democracy does not allow filibustering. Democracy does not allow super-majorities for any legislative activity. Democracy does not allow life terms for any officials, not even federal judges. And democracy would demand term limits on the same legislature that initiated term limits of the executive branch in Republican retaliation for a president who had been elected four times--Franklin Delano Roosevelt. <br /><br />Republicans never cease their efforts to drown any semblance of democracy. They needn't try with their Jim Crow tactics, their voter suppression tactics or any of the dirty behavior of Chaffetz and Gowdy, because our government has never been democratic. Read your original Constitution. Slavery, yet slave owners were allowed to partially count their slaves in order to enhance their presence in our government. Women, more than half of the pupulation, could not vote for over 100 years and outrageous fights for their rights. Study the ugly behavior of Republicans ever since the crook Richard Nixon took the party South because it had nothing left in common with whatever respectability remains in the North. And Jason Chaffetz and Trey Gowdy are perfect examples of the evil ugliness that has come of the Republican Party. But whom can we blame? Why do "We the people" put up with them?<br /><br />Rise up and revolt! First, get off your lazy butts and study and learn politics, governmenbt, issues, and candidates. Then really rise up and vote intelligently to rid this sick society of the whoring thugs, both male and female, who sell themselves to the highest bidders--those with the most money--to destroy any semblance of decency or respect. No, loudly and clearly, ours has never been a democracy, and that is our own fault.<br />copied from a post by Gilbert CantglinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-28760256949697607912015-10-01T09:01:51.737-08:002015-10-01T09:01:51.737-08:00No one is surprised by this.

What makes this admission especially pornographic is how the GOP pretends to show sympathy for the fallen, when in fact their deaths are just a means to influence an election. In the GOP's world, dead heroes are far more useful than the wounded, because the wounded are an ongoing expense.<br />TChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02279964051995739012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-38293795326983927622015-10-01T04:30:10.096-08:002015-10-01T04:30:10.096-08:00@7:12

The C...@ 4:06 you are incorrect, all the reps vote<br /><br />The Clerk of the House of Representatives requests nominations: there are normally two, one from each major party (each party having previously met to decide on its nominee).<br /><br />The Clerk then calls the roll of the Representatives-elect, each Representative-elect indicating the surname of the candidate he or she is supporting. <br /><br />Representatives-elect are not restricted to voting for one of the nominated candidates and may vote for any person, even for someone who is not a member (or member-elect) of the House at all. They may also abstain by voting "present".[4]<br /><br />To be elected as Speaker, a candidate must receive an absolute majority of all votes cast for individuals, i.e. excluding those who abstain.<br /><br />If no candidate wins such a majority, then the roll call is repeated until a Speaker is elected. <br /><br />https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speaker_of_the_United_States_House_of_Representatives<br /><br />Therefore Nancy Pelosi or another Democrat could become speaker if they get the majority of the votes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-62650851264784197192015-09-30T19:02:24.418-08:002015-09-30T19:02:24.418-08:00Sally, Rachel Maddow just did a segment on this po...Sally, Rachel Maddow just did a segment on this potential SPEAKER's inability to SPEAK--clip after clip after clip of misused and made up words and lack of syntax which just confuses further the total gibberish already coming out of his mouth as he READS a prepared speech.
