Conservatives used to be dismayed at our reputation around the world, when other countries did not respect us.<br /><br />But no longer.<br /><br />Now those same conservatives think this shows us in a good light. Or they are mad at the "liberal lame stream media" for publishing the story of McCarthy and the current 10 essentially no confidence votes.<br /><br />What is going on? <br /><br />How can conservatives think this is good? Why are Trump voters not screaming mad at their congressmen and women to fix this? The US does not have a functioning government right now and these clowns, these yes, <b>deplorables</b> don't seem to care.<br /><br />Sadly, it looks like Hillary was right.

Donald Trump’s insanity, corruption, lying, cruelty and sedition were appeased, in the end, by nearly every elected Republican in the House of Representatives. The greatest appeaser among them was Kevin McCarthy. He is a hollow and empty man. That is why he won’t be Speaker. He also won’t be Majority Leader. In fact, Kevin McCarthy won’t be in leadership at all. He will be a lesson about where the abdication of duty, responsibility and integrity lead. He will be a case study. He is among America’s greatest profiles in cowardice.<br /><br />The fall of Kevin McCarthy is a spectacle of decay and corruption. This moment closes and seals a circle that began eight years ago when Donald Trump descended the Trump Tower escalator."</b> --Conservative Charlie SykesShaw Kenawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637273000409613497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-58596890988786377112023-01-05T08:24:42.752-05:002023-01-05T08:24:42.752-05:00We need a real leader to take control.We need a real leader to take control.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-26716977896536377572023-01-04T21:49:41.178-05:002023-01-04T21:49:41.178-05:00Rob Reiner

Rarely does karma play out so neatly.<br /><br />Kevin McCarthy nurtured the spirit of reactionary nihilism in the Republican Party, first by trying to harness the energy of the Tea Party for his own ambition, and then by his near-total capitulation to Donald Trump. Now the chaotic forces he abetted have, at least for the moment, derailed his goal of becoming House speaker, subjecting him to multiple public humiliations at what was supposed to be his moment of triumph.<br /><br />It is still possible that McCarthy will manage to eke this thing out by making even more concessions to the growing bloc of Republicans who oppose him. It is not possible, however, that he’ll emerge, in any real sense, as a leader."</b> -- Michelle GoldbergShaw Kenawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637273000409613497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-72394573579796921352023-01-04T16:58:17.423-05:002023-01-04T16:58:17.423-05:00A significant force in America is the bat-shit-cra...A significant force in America is the bat-shit-crazies of the destructive gop.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-42243015997394392972023-01-04T14:15:02.836-05:002023-01-04T14:15:02.836-05:00Elect clowns and you get a circus.
