Politics – House Republicans walk out on vote
By GOD it’s about time the Republicans acted like they had a spine.
Awesome.
Details remain fuzzy, but numerous Republicans argued afterward that they had secured a 215-213 win on their motion to bar undocumented immigrants from receiving any federal funds apportioned in the agricultural spending bill for employment or rental assistance. Democrats, however, argued the measure was deadlocked at 214-214 and failed, members and aides on both sides of the aisle said afterward.
The Republicans were claiming that the Democrats were trying to cheat their way in to saying that the measure had failed. A lot of chaotic stuff is going on in the video, but you can see the Republicans get up and leave and you can hear the guys on the Right calling out the Democrats for what appeared to be a “cheat” in the system.
Damnit, Allah got to it the same time I did.
He’s got video up on Cantor basically giving the Democrats “what for”.
One of these days I’ll get something faster than he does. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but someday…..he has to go to sleep sometime.
