1. Dear God in heaven, I hate stunts. n/t

[Lifelong Protester]

2. Yeah, do they have to hire folks to tell them what to say in these

situations? They just got a smack down on the 'embellishments'.

9. Posing for commercials. nt

10. Wow, the GOP has discovered how to use

a copy machine.

You'd think by now they'd have it memorized, but most of them have to read it from a script.

11. Why did it only cost them 5 seconds

all of that crap was more than 5 seconds.

12. They were allowed

by the parliamentarian to say 'I ask for unanimous consent to opposed this flawed health care bill'. Any member is allowed to make a unanimous consent request. They are not allowed to add extra commentary like a few did such as inserting the word unconstitutional.

15. Are al the GOP idiots going to say this?

Boring as hell, someone should object just for the fun.

[phleshdef]

16. What gets me is how weak of a statement of opposition that actually is.

Some of them are say "opposition to govt takeover of healthcare" and "opposition to this job killing, tax raising bill", blah, blah. But most of them are using the word "flawed" as the negative word and its a pretty weak one. Thats strange.
