There is some merit to gridlock. But still some things do have to get accomplished.

Now THAT'S funny! If it makes you feel better to believe that, then go ahead with your delusion.

Anybody who has followed the Republicans in congress knew who McCarthy was long before he was elected SOTH.

It sounds to me YOU had never heard of him and you're just projecting that lack of knowledge onto me.


Still waiting on that link...

My point exactly. We don't know who he is or what he will do. And after the VP, he's next in line to be President. And, yes, that is a little concerning to me. If you're completely comfortable with it, good for you!

In the meantime, I'm going to keep my fingers crossed...



But McCarthy being second in line behind the VP was okay? Or did you concern troll about that too, since you were intimately aware of KM, long before he was the SOH?

FYI, my best friend lives in Bakersfield and is MAGA as hell, and I am still waiting on that link.

He was a known quantity. I realize you're having a difficult time comprehending what I'm saying but you really need to try harder.

I have no idea what your "Bakersfield" comment refers to. Are you having a stroke?

And that known quantity was shitbag, capitulating, spineless Republican.

Might want to use your Google machine and look up the district your good friend Kevin McCarthy represents.

Weren’t you the one who acted like it was absurd that KM was basically unknown before he became Speaker? And you of all people don’t know that his district is basically Fresno to Bakersfield?

WTF? When did I post that?

YOU are the one who keeps claiming McCarthy was unknown before he was elected SOTH.

Seriously, are you having a stroke? You're becoming incoherent.

Again with your "best friend"?? Who gives a frick what your best friend thinks? Totally unrelated to this thread's topic. You're boring me.

Questioned whether he had the chops to be speaker. Voted against the CR which, in Roves opinion, makes him unqualified to lead. Just the standard swampiness you'd expect from Rove.

Little thick, aren't you? I have a feeling my incoherence is directly related to how the facts make you look like a dingbat. Yes, very few (most likely including you) didn't know the first thing about KM before he was SOH. And while you post about that probably being the case for me and my claim being projection, you don't recognize one of the primary ways in which someone would be aware of KM before he was SOH, in that he has been the legislator representing Bakersfield for years. Even to the extent that you don't comprehend the significance of my friend being from Bakersfield, and so I have known about KM for 15 years.

I looked in his eye & shook his hand 5 years ago.

You know how it is when you encounter a dog, golden retriever for example, and you just know that he is a good dog. No yapping, calm, balanced, comfortable in it’s own fur.

That’s Mike. A decent guy who won’t pull any stunts…or punches.
