OK, the GOP's playing the conga-line game to delay the vote.

The assholes have unanimous consent to extend their remarks expressing their batshit opposition to this bill.

:rofl:

1. And they just received a reprimand to quit using rhetoric

and embellishments when making their requests.

[Hawkeye-X]

2. Jesse Jackson Jr should tell them to shove it and note that all Republicans are in opposition of the

bill and will be continued to be ignored for the rest of their careers.

3. What does this mean? I've never seen a conga line....

6. You're watching C-SPAN, right?

This is nothing more than a delaying tactic - all the Rethugs are getting in a big line behind the mic to ask the speaker for unanimous consent to revise and extend their remarks to express opposition to the bill. It's your basic "We're being obnoxious because we can" tactic.

15. Thanks for the info!

8. It means the Republicans have lost again

You're watching a basketball game and one team is fouling the other over and over again, hoping that the shooter will miss one or both free throws, and they can come back down and get a 3-pointer. They miss, of course, and have to foul again. It's the last minute, and a 5-point game suddenly becomes a 10- or 15-point game. This is the House of Representatives equivalent.

9. Sorry, folks, but Michigan State you ain't.

No buzzer-beater for you.

[Siwsan]

4. It's a Neo-Con-go line

[DefenseLawyer]

5. I think that's conga line.

Wrong continent.

[cali]

7. Asswipes alll speaking as slowly as they can.

idiots don't seem to realize that this makes piss poor political theater.

[backscatter712]

10. Another round.

Should we make this part of a drinking game?

Every time the GOP does a conga-line, we take a drink?

[sharp_stick]

12. I've got to work tomorrow

no way I could drink that much today and actually make it out the door in the morning.

[Lost-in-FL]

13. I don't have that much alcohol at home, sorry can't play. nt

[blondeatlast]

11. I ask unanimous consent for the next person who says "flawed' to

spontaneously transform into a booger-covered, yellow headed slug.

[CreekDog]

14. I'm patient until they start doing the chicken dance

:grr:
