democrats reveal their crybaby tendencies

erupt in tantrums on the house floor

Rebellious Democrats disrupted the House's legislative work on Wednesday, staging a sit-in on the House floor and refusing to leave until they secured a vote on gun control measures. Exasperated Republicans were forced to recess while cutting off the C-Span cameras that showed the protest.

A group of about three dozen Democrats led by Georgia Rep. John Lewis demanded a vote on measures to expand background checks and block gun purchases by some suspected terrorists in the aftermath of last week's massacre in Orlando, Florida, that killed 49 people. It was the worst shooting in modern history.

"No bill, no break," shouted Democrats, who demanded that House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., keep the House in session through its planned weeklong recess next week to debate and vote on gun legislation.

After the sit-in, Rep. Ted Poe, R-Texas, tried to start the House's work at noon. The customary prayer and pledge of allegiance went ahead, but Poe was forced to recess the House when dozens of Democrats stood in the well of the House and refused to leave.

Rep. John Larson, D-Conn., said lawmakers were "calling for the simple dignity of a vote." Joining the protest was Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., who had waged a nearly 15-hour filibuster last week to force votes in the Senate. Those votes failed on Monday night.
 
Elected liberal behavior
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
We filibustered to demand a vote
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
The vote didn't go the way we wanted it to
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Now we're going to sit on the floor and pout

I need to correct you my friend. The demalquedacrats could have gotten the ban they requested. All the GOP asked for was a reasonable request of due process and the demalquedacrats said NO to due process

It is clear the demalquedacrats just want an election year issue and do not want to solve a problem.
 
If Paul Ryan had balls, he would lock the traitorous demalquedacrats in and cut off the lights and electricity to the chamber. No food, no water and no communication. They would come crying in 12 hours

this is why at least on this one issue conservatives are wise to liberal tactics. We know they aren't being honest when they say they just want "background checks." You give them an inch and they'll take a mile. Got a speeding ticket? No gun. Restraining order ever filed against you even though anyone can do that for anyone reason? No gun. etc

I would have had the House police arrest them.
 
When us liberals figure out a way to take away your inalienable rights after packing the court with dishonest judicial activists that will work towards our own ends while ignoring that silly antiquated document called the constitution, will you cry or rise up?

fixed.
 
occupy Wall Street, occupy Congress..."what difference does it make"........the liberal's "progressive" goal is to insure stagnation.....

I'm allfor people power,but not messing around with an already dysfunctional Congress.
Whatever the merits of a vote or not -the House is a body that needs parliamentarian rules to function.
Stunts like this can only lead to more stunts,and then you have a body that cannot function

good grief. street demonstrations do not belong in the halls of government - that's not a representative democracy at all

Really?
Another post totally devoid of fact or knowledge.

The house these days is like a library compared to previous centuries and yes, there are indeed parlimentary rules.
The Dems were utilizing them.
To be clear I do not support the Dems.

They should go along with the Pubes and provide due process to those on secret lists.
It is their innate love of power (totalitarianism) which prevents them from acting reasonable, therefore they will be equally at fault after the next shooting commited by a watch list member.
 
Why do you hate the rule of law?

:evilnod:

Nancy Pelosi did just the same thing when the Republicans pulled the same kind of stunt in 2008. She closed things down and had reporters forcibly removed. Sorry to blow up your false sense of histoire

The typical mindset by Liberals. If they don't do what we want we won't let them do anything else. It's like the little kid that throws a hissy fit and says he's going to hold his breath until he gets what he wants. Fine. Eventually he'll start breathing automatically when he passes out.
 
May I commend to your attention a dictionary you idiot?
Conservatism by nature is stagnation.
Idiot.

lol.....you still think that, don't you.......you realize that liberals have become the king of the status quo, don't you?......."you can't change immigration, you can't change abortion, you can't repeal Obama care, you can't reduce spending, you can't win an election without $42 million in the bank, you can't have school vouchers or charter schools, you can't get blacks or women to vote Republican".......you even have elderly congressmen sitting on the floor of the House chanting Kum by ya as if it were still the 60s........liberals are the party of regression......
