  • Glen Reynolds had a good point. If there were an opposition party, that is opposition to anybody but Trump, they would have sent juice boxes and pacifiers down to the crybullies in the HOR.

  • What is disgustingly amazing to those of us who where alive during the Civil Rights movement. It was the NRA who ensured that those in the black communities where able to defend themselves from the bigots within the dip shit party. Now the black community has once again moved back onto the plantation of the dip shits. They (dip shits) do nothing for the black community until its election time. Then they are all about helping. Once the election is over, they go back to ignoring the problems of the people especially those that they claim so much to have their best interest at heart. Wake up and realize that you are being used, abused and tossed away right after the election is over.

    If Ruining Ryan had a spine and a set of gonads. He'd had the whole lot arrested for disrupting the proceedings. He is just a younger sober version of crying tanning bed Bohner.

    • "Once the election is over, they go back to ignoring the problems.." That sounds like a good description of John McCain. The only time he cares about being conservative is once every 6 years just before November.

    • Not all Blacks but the point is there. The Democrat party has done a good job in providing goodies and not just to Blacks but people throughout the entire country making believe that the government is absolute provider and essentially diminishing people's capabilities to care for themselves and their families. I have seen this in other countries with socialist government or socialistic tendencies (like the USA is). NO matter the color of skin, most people want to be taken care of and when most people do not have the ability to care for themselves or they THINK they do not AND there are policies in place to indeed keep people from caring for themselves we get what we see...

  • Leading what? Five spoiled brats who wanna sit on the floor and have a tantrum? My how very adult of him. I guess the 19 trillion in debt, 25 percent real unemployment, the military falling apart and black on black crime does not interest him enough to be involved....I hope this prick sits on a sharp object and gets brain damage.

  • How is them stopping the govt from doing anything a bad thing to happen. This is the most I've liked them.

    • That's the way I looked at it. Sitting on the floor is much better than voting the way they do.

  • A bunch of friggin' children, lead by old fools like Piglosi. Holding a "sit-in" on the House floor just because they can't get their way? Two year old brats pull the same kind of crap, throw a tantrum until their idiot parents give in and give them the lollypop they wanted. Then, usually, they lick the lollypop twice then throw it on the floor because they didn't really want it, they just wanted to get their way.

  • My idea is:
    If you don't want guns, don't own one.
    If you don't want to smoke, don't.
    If you want to be gay, go ahead.
    Just don't try to stop anyone that doesn't agree with you.

    • You. Will. Be. Made. To. Care.

      It is all about power and bullying for the progressive fascist democrat party. Nothing more, nothing less. Any and all sub groups are always about that.

    • Just like Islam, the Progressive tenet is control and enslavement of humans by other humans. Forcing others to participate so there is a communal agreement that the behavior is correct and proper (even if morally and ethically it isn't) or it isn't correct and proper (even though morally and ethically it is) depending on the Progressive ideology.

  • Simple answer to your question. He's black and he's a Democrat. He doesn't need to make sense.
