Consensus, not confrontation, is needed for good governance.

WASHINGTON (AP) — In a House Republican majority often driven by the most conservative lawmakers, the pragmatists are suddenly demanding to be heard.

These lawmakers defected on an immigration vote last week, and this week they forced GOP leaders to water down abortion legislation. With the new, fully Republican-led Congress three weeks old, they are serving notice they will no longer keep quiet as their more ideological colleagues push legislation to the right, demand votes on social issues, or court government shutdowns to try to block President Barack Obama.

"There's a growing sense in the conference that we need to get things done here, not just make political statements," said Rep. Carlos Curbelo of Florida, a freshmen lawmaker. "We should be focused on the agenda of the American people and not on taking an infinite amount of symbolic votes that aren't going to get anything done."

There's already one political Party that's run by Marxists, we don't need a second

 

[JakeStarkey]

Frank, you think BHO is a Kenyan and it is only downhill from there for you.

There are no Marxists in Congress, but there are some weirdoes on the far left and the far right.

[JakeStarkey]

That is no evidence as you well know, and most of the Republicans laugh at it as well.

 

[Kosh]

To bad the OP supports the far left and does not support the far left being run out of politics..

All I can say is, it's about damn time.

May have waited too late.

Some of the far right reactionaries are terrified that their negative influence on the House has waned. They can still get in line and help govern instead of obstruct.

And yet the far left still controls the DNC and the far left OP will still vote far left..

 

[JakeStarkey]

Of course the far left will do what it will.

But the GOP mainstream is crushing the far right in Congress.

That is good for America.

Yet when Obama continues to tack hard left you're silent on that. Who saw that coming, Jake?

The GOP smells victory in 2016 and the smell is coming from the center.

What a lame attempt to try to change the subject.

What would be better is getting rid f the far left religion from politics..

 

[Kosh]

The GOP smells victory in 2016 and the smell is coming from the center.

Yet the racist far left still exists and is still supported by drones like you!

 

[PredFan]

Please people, if Jake is a Republican, I'm the Queen of England.

Pay the troll no mind.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

To bad the OP supports the far left and does not support the far left being run out of politics..

His leftist friends already custom fitted his jackboots

I don't care about Obama, as you well know. I do care about my GOP being the right party for this country. What we don't need are shitten puppy libertarianism anymore than lefties or far right reactionaries running the government. That is why the TP was crushed in the primaries.
