Quote from: Jim at Gentex on October 18, 2023, 10:52 AMSad part is we will likely end up with another RINO like McCarthy and be right back where we started.

At this point it's a best case.
If enough rhino's vote with the Dems we'll wind up with Jefferies (D) has Speaker of the House.
I actually saw some fool put up Liz Cheney as a viable compromise.

If they are squabbling about this, it's lessntine they have to infringe on our rights.

The glass is half-full.

That's the way they are headed in they don't get their shit together.
The press is playing it like a fair solution to keep a mad dog insurrectionist (Jordan)
from being 2 steps away from the presidency.
The real reason is it would put the brakes on the R's feeble attempts to investigate Biden Inc's corruption.

Probably the most accurate article about the House Speaker fiasco this week....

Looks like it could very well end up MN Rep Emmer as speaker. He was a local morning radio show host for while before getting elected to the house. He talked quite the conservative talk on the radio. Then after getting elected has sided with the swamp every time! RINO to the core. He even worked for a Soros funded national popular vote org.

I'm not impressed by any person Minnesota has ever elected.

I think Jason Lewis was a true libertarian. I think that is why the left/Rinos/deeps state tried so hard to smear him as a misogynist. Those that they can't corrupt get the full attack and run out of town.

No worries, the Circus isn't leaving town anytime soon...

Emmer simply won't get the needed votes UNLESS several Dems decide to vote for him which almost certainly ain't happening...they're enjoying the show.

You are probably right. I'm ok with it continuing. The R party is broken and corrupt at the highest ranks. It needs to be exposed until every R voter has had enough and won't keep supporting the status quo Rino's.

All it's going to get, because of the 2 party mindset is a Dem sweep with some 3rd party winners tossed in for good measure...I suspect the R's are going to get wiped out and frankly, they deserve it.

JUst becomes a sad moment for the country and the next 4 yearss

Yup.

The UNWRITTEN rules of the House are being made very clear.
Only swamp creatures will occupy the leadership positions on either side of the aisle, period.

Sadly I think we are inching closer to blow it up, burn it down, and start over...
