...and all I can do is shake my head. The House Reps are at each others throats and the toothless vermin known as the tea party are outside on camera clamoring for their 15 minutes of fame. Almost ashamed to be an American. The rest of the world watches this and laughs. I shake my head. God help us!

The legislation is an embarrassment, but at 12:16 PT, the Repubs are acquitting themselves quite well, with intelligence, relevance, and decorum.

Each Congressman has to get a sound bite for his specific constituency for next fall's election campaign. Let them have their 15 seconds. The jackasses are more than making up for it! This is a great debate for the midterms.
Representatives Paul Ryan (WI), Darrell Issa (CA) and Jeff Flake (AZ) have done and are continuing to do a fantastic job!

He's one of the few who's maintaining his decorum throughout this goatrope.
Fucking hilarious to see that BLACK GUY look like he just got spotlighted by the cops when asked the procedural question regarding the bill having to go back to the senate.
That was worth the price of admission right there.

Calm down, cat. The previous chair was a white guy, then a white gal, so it was an innocent question.
I am not a fan of Jackson Jr, but he is doing a pretty good job as chair. He is a lot sharper than some of the old coots around that place.

No more racial humor, AZG.
Skelly can't HANDLE the truth.
