#1 Insanity - repeating the same things and expecting different results. The GOP just handed themselves a loss in 2016 electing this ultimate insider with no principles other than what the Chamber of Commerce and Crony Capitalists tell him and the other GOP errand boys to do.

#2 2016... expect more of the same. The publicans having a strong and winning hand... only to surrender fully to Obama.

#3 This drop in crude oil price is beginning to bother me a bit. I smell an orchestrated price dip, followed by a heavy round of federal tax increases at the pump. The proles won't feel a thing initially, and this ponzi scheme bailout has to come from somewhere, right ?

#4 Artic read - no Unitarian Socialist Establishment impeachment agz the Bammer over anything, while the US-led Anti-US OWG Globalism marches on.

#5 Bitch Mitchell has already said he's not going to do a damn thing about Executive Amnesty. Probably not about Obamacare either. And Boehner will go right along with him.

Both of them are actually foolish enough to think that all those illegal voters will vote for them. And you know they will vote - LaRaza and the DNC will make damn sure of that as well as suing anyone who dares to question their 'right to vote'.

#6 Wasted time, effort, and political ammo. NOT realizing that speaks volumes about Gohmert and the other two candidates and their situational awareness. Can someone in Texas please speak to him? He might listen, he's actually a likeable guy.

#7 There is only one party called the Repugnantcrats.

#8 They'll all be surprise when the next terrorist strike hits DC and most people* outside the Beltway yawn. Big city mayors might be agitated (as in we may be next), but too busy with their own imploding mess to get the flyovers excited about it.

* not to be confused with the ballot box stuffers who consume but don't produce.

#10 #7 There is only one party called the Repugnantcrats.

#11 A repeat of 1854 is coming sooner than I thought.

#13 Better a repeat of 15 June 1215, with Magna Carta Libertatum II a`la 15 June 2015.

#14 Can I call him "Benedict" Boehner?

#15 Benedict's Boner?

(Sorry, couldn't resist)

In any case I think the Republicans have pretty much signed their own death warrant - they're just too stupid to realize it. Once these illegals start voting (or The Emperor grants them citizenship by fiat) the GOP is finished. It may be finished now - I think a lot of conservatives will remember the treason of Boehner and Mitchell and stay home. I'll certainly be tempted to. Sure I may be 'throwing my vote away' but at least I'm not giving it to the other side which is what the GOP leadership is anymore.

#16 Didn't take a week for the circle to form. I Suwannee I just don't know.

#17 People voted for new republican blood because they wanted a change from the status quo of uncontrolled spending and out of control govt. Boehner, McConnell and Reid were the architects of our bankruptcy as a govt. O is a symptom. Boehner may be King Sh*t but he will preside over a collapsed govt or a rebellion. We are approaching the knee of the collapse curve.
Boehner and McConnell will preside over our demise if they pursue the status quo.

This country is being attacked from without and within. We are running out of time.
