President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Ohio Speaker of the House was an even bigger cluster.

Some nutball thought he had it all sewn up. He's one of those anti-gay bigots. Trying to change the constitution to make it harder for the people to get something voted into law. You know the drill.

Well, the guy who writes the blog The Rooster that posted the pic of Urban Meyer getting handsy at the bar last year put up a picture of one of the nutball's fellow reps giving him what looked like a bit of a backrub shirtless at some pool. Apparently the nutball had been pissing off plenty of powerful Republicans, so a faction turned against him, teamed with some Dems, and voted some more benign goof as Ohio Speaker.

Many of the Republicans are PISSED. They thought they had their shoe-in to control everything they wanted in Ohio. The Rooster guy went to the Statehouse afterword and basically gloated at everyone who lost. He's living it up on Twitter.

 

Is McCarthy’s stuff still in the speaker’s office?

 

Jill Krowinski was re-elected Vermont Speaker of the House with a near-unanimous voice vote.

 

Speaker of the People’s House

 

And we are through five on the House vote. Time to drag the infield!

But we’re not here to be critics …

Irony is lost on the GOP

 

Yeah, I couldn't care less about whatever policy they're spouting. None of this matters. This House will pass nothing that isn't naming post offices and shit.

 

Our house it has a crowd
There's always something happening
And it's usually quite loud​

 

"Mister Speaker" sounds like some Fisher-Price toy. If it existed, it would be preferable to any of these right-wing assclowns.

 

Pleasepleasepleasepleasepleaseplease Baby Jesus let this happen. It’s my only prayer for 2023, I hope.

I would think Clyburn is floating a trial balloon. I can’t see it happening, but you never know.

 

I’d never heard more than a sound bite from Scott Perry before a few minutes ago. I’ve read many of his moronic quotes of course.

But wow: what a lying, sniveling, jackass.

There are few things more transparently stupid than comparing today’s Republican Party with the party of Lincoln. Does anyone actually still believe that crap?
