Just mushed Boehner on a grand stage.
-
Any conspiracy theorists think that was planned?
-
So, did Huelskamp just get everybody's taxes raised, or do you guys think the cliff might still be averted?

Maybe Huelskamp will find a way to get everyone's guns taken away next. :crossfingers:

Is there any way adopt a state for political reasons, without actually moving there? I'm pretty done with Kansas.

Why not move there? If you stay here, you have to live with the result of our even shittier state government politics.

Remember when Republicans were saying Pelosi was the worst speaker ever :lol:

I mean, this rough ridin' guy.

If the republicans would have put up a challenger to him the last election cycle he would not have been voted back in. Hopefully he will have someone go after him next time.

I think he would be much more likeable if he had an epic mustache. It's probably much more honest that he shaved it because now he looks like what he is, a huge douche.

Is he from the Meade area? Maybe we should consider it for second worst town in KS?

Fowler, the town next to Meade. Pretty much Meade's worst enemy.

"You know what, there's been a lot of misleading statements, including those that are said right here, in saying that somehow if we ban a gun, that somehow criminals won't get it," Huelskamp said, referring in part to arguments made on Scarborough's "Morning Joe" about gun control this week.
"Let's not build on the tragedy in Connecticut and use that to actually push a political agenda," Huelskamp said.
Huelskamp said President Obama and his allies were using Sandy Hook to push tougher gun laws, but Scarborough inferred the comment was also directed at him and later accused the congressman of questioning his integrity.
"What was your feeling after Sept. 11, Congressman? Were there some changes made in this country because of the tragedy of Sept. 11? Was that just using a tragedy, 3,000 deaths, to make Americans safer? Do you dare come on my show and say I am using the slaughter of 20 little 6- and 7-year-old children? I'm using them for political purposes?" Scarborough said.

What part of the country could we realistically carve off and ask these people to move to?
I'm willing to give Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, and the Dakotas.
Do you think that would take care of it?

Looks like Moran and Roberts (our only 2 members of congress who aren't completely batshit crazy) voted for the fiscal cliff deal. As for our members of the house:
KANSAS
Republicans - Huelskamp, N; Jenkins, N; Pompeo, N; Yoder, N.

I'm just glad that cooler heads from other states prevailed and we didn't get the giant tax hike that our tea party representatives wanted.
-
nearly everybody got a 2% payroll tax increase and zero federal spending cuts. It's a crap deal.

Just because he wants to be a martyr doesn't mean 1. he's the only one 2. it will succeed
I think it will be interesting to see just how much butthurt exists when it comes time to vote on Speaker.

the Republicans got bent over and abused. What losers, I am so pissed. :curse:

It's better than the alternative that all of our Kansas House members voted for, which would have included the 2% payroll tax increase, the exact same tax increase for people who make over $400k, and another sizable tax increase for just about everyone else as well.

I can't tell if you're flaming or what, but you do realize that's a completely false statement, don't you?
Do you also recognize that this deal actually accelerates deficit spending, which if unresolved will make your tax rate irrelevant along with whatever miniscule wealth you've accumulated?
Finally, you do realize that the "wackos" in kansas already lowered your taxes for the year? Which, given the above, you strongly approve of.
All this does is kick the can down the road for another debt ceiling showdown. For everyone's sake that better include massive spending cuts.
Sidenote: I find it ironic that the Dems grand victory for the fiscal cliff includes increased deficit spending and the most short sited resolution the problem possible. It's their entire being in a nutshell.

Almost no one is claiming it is a grand victory. The reason things are being kicked down the road is that there was not enough agreement to achieve a grand bargain based on simpson-bowles or any other framework. The fact that the U.S. spends more than the next 10 biggest counties combined on defense must be addressed. The contours of our entitlements must be addressed. Discretionary spending is what everyone loves to demagogue, but that is not the problem. We need massive cuts to the pentagon, we need to change eligibility requirements/retirement age for social secuity/Medicare. Those things were never going to be decided in a month or two by a lame duck Congress. Criticize Obama all you want, but he can't be blamed for everything Congress has failed to do. He failed to embrace and campaign on Simpson-Bowles, that would've been my preference, but I think we are too far along for their not to be real progress achieved in the next year or two. I will admit if I am wrong, but I think locking in the Bush tax rates means deductions/entitlements/the pentagon finally are discussed.
-
KK,
We spend 10x more than everyone on everything, not just defense. The President's unwillingness to seriously address spending while permanently fixing tax rates cant be viewed as anything but an enormous failure or leadership. Stop defending this assclown. He just folded his hand.

Well it hasn't happened yet, but it is supposed to happen in the next year so I think holding off and seeing what happens would be prudent. I won't defend Obama's failure to embrace entitlement reform and cutting defense spending. I think Chuck Hagel being in the Pentagon would go a long way toward getting half of that monster tackled. He took an enormous gamble on Obamacare slowing the growth of healthcare spending, the jury will be out on that for some time. But again, Obama is not all-powerful. The fact that it took this much nut cutting to accomplish would rightly be characterized as a small bargain is a stain on Obama's first term. I don't see how you could possibly lay no responsibility at the feet of the Democratic Senate and the Republican House.
-
I have defended no one. Reading comprehension, my man.
The Pres preemptively vetoing all plans that touched entitlements is a very poor start and shows an ignorance of or unwillingness to seriously address the problem. He's also the rough ridin' president. Therefore he deserves the lions share of the blame.

I was doing some addition by subtracting there. I think we agree more than you think here, but he didn't veto anything and the House Republican caucus has been at least as obstructive as Obama in the most generous reading of events.

Huelskamp, Jenkins, Pompeo, and Yoder lowered my taxes? When did this happen?
I'm all for lower taxes, and I'll gladly pay less to the state of Kansas this year. That said, I don't really believe that the state of Kansas wastes nearly as much money as the federal government, and since the state of Kansas is not allowed to operate on a deficit, the spending cuts to come have me somewhat worried for the state's future.
I think you should applaud the house, senate, and president for doing what is best for the country, at least for now. Save your criticism for 2 months from now when our government once again makes complete asses of themselves debating whether or not they should raise the debt ceiling to pay back creditors. I'm hoping we can at the very least come up with a couple hundred billion dollars worth of defense cuts and entitlement reforms, though I'm sure there will be a failure at all levels to do that.
-
I'm glad we all agree this plan is nothing more than a dabble of neosporan on a nealry severed lower torso. It seems that some will refuse to label these failures as such until the US actally reaches the point of no return. I wonder why o oscar Webber isn't afforded a fraction of that deference?
Also, fwiw, Sebelius and Parkinson operated Kansas on a deficit, despite the Constitutional prohibition. That amendment lacks a sufficient measure for enforcement rendering it practically useless.

Huelskamp, one of a dozen or so Republicans to not vote for Boehner. He was joined by, among others, Allen West (outgoing) and Louie Gomert (moron who voted for Allen West for Speaker). Despite the stupid protest vote, Boehner rolled to victory. Huelskamp cemented his status as someone who will get dicked over for committee appointments as long as he is in Washington.

I'm struggling to find his motivation for wanting to be completely ineffective while in Washington.
Maybe I'm missing something obvious.

I find it refreshing that there are a handful of congressmen willing to buck the status quo and try and do something right for a change. I think this is what made guys like ron paul and joe lieberman so powerful in the long run.
On the weird side, we've successfully identified several of the 7% of Americans who presently approve of congree.

louie gomert is not ron paul, he's a moron. You are free to read his stupidity, it is available in bundles on the internet. I don't know how a symbolic protest vote against Boehner "bucks the status quo" in any substantive way and I also don't know why me criticizing this stupid move by Huelskamp means I "approve of congress."
Huelskamp is making himself a persona-non-grata among his own caucus. I've yet to see a convincing argument about why that advances even his own interests on their own terms. It seems that at best he can hope to develop a fundraising base of Tea Party and Movement Conservatives outside his own constituents. None of this appears to serve the best interests of me as his constituent, and looking at Allen West's fate might bring some question marks about if this is really Huelskamp's best strategy for staying in D.C.

I respect that he is standing up to his party, and I also find it refreshing whenever a candidate refuses to tow the party line to do what he thinks is right. That said, Huelskamp is an extremist who at the final hour decided to vote on his ideology rather than what was actually best for his constituents and the majority of Americans. Huelskamp is not good at choosing his fights. I think he's an idiot, and now he is just about completely powerless. That is not good for him or Kansas.

Because Mood's ratings mean jack crap when it comes to government debt at the national level. Sure if a state or municipality wants to pay to have debt rated it might help (though in most cases the benefits are offset by the cost of the rating). But the credit agencies rate countries for free publicity so when you see your mutual fund purchased a bunch of rated bonds to build schools in Florida you feel it's a safe investment.

"I think it was a vote of no confidence. In this town the intimidation was intense. There were a lot of members who wanted to vote no," - congressman Tim Huelskamp, Republican of Kansas, about John Boehner's re-election as Speaker of the House.
A lot of people wanted to, but put the interests of their district ahead of their own butthurt and ego.

Thanks to the Federal Reserve!
Huelscamps symbolic vote changed exactly nothing and the overwhelming majority of his his constituents probably wanted him to vote that way.
I thinks its time to lock this away in the category of whiny bitch dems bitching about nothing because they don't have anything to bitch about. Boohoo we suck, KS politics are crazy.

Huelskamp is a fool, incompetently representing the interests of Kansas. He can;t even competently lead his little cabal of know-nothing weirdos. What a complete tool.
Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-Kan.) — who was recently removed from key committees and supported Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) for speaker — sat on the House floor during the speaker vote brandishing an iPad. A message was displayed on the screen ticking off members of the House Republican Conference he hoped would oppose the sitting speaker. The title of the document: “You would be fired if this goes out.”
Among the Republicans on the list were Reps. Steve King (Iowa), Cynthia Lummis (Wyo.), Paul Gosar (Ariz.), Scott Garrett (N.J.), Steve Fincher (Tenn.) and Scott Desjarlais (Tenn.). All of them ultimately supported Boehner.
It’s not clear that any of the Republicans on Huelskamp’s list knew they were on it, or even knew of the list’s existence.
...............
“I will not comment on stories that invade personal e-mails or private property,” Huelskamp said in a statement read by a spokesman when asked about the anti-Boehner list, which was clearly visible to photographers and reporters as he worked on it while sitting on the House floor.

He probably is. Huelskamp was the worst congressman in America, though. Marshall can't be worse.

oh crap i forgot he voted against nbaf. :shakesfist:

hopefully GOP candidates learn from huelskamp's example and realize you can't be so principled/intransigent (depending on how you see it). it's politics. you have to be willing to play ball.

Has he given an interview as to why Jesus didn't help him through the primaries?
-
Hopefully the GOP candidates learn from Huelskamps example and realize you can't vote against NBAF and expect to not get the axe.

What is funny is that everyone thought they hated "pork barrel politics" but really people prefer corruption if it means here at least some examples of progress achieved.

He voted against $1.1 trillion spending bill that included NBAF. Is the logic that he is supposed to vote for any budget-busting abomination if it includes some dollars for Manhattan?

if he wants to get re-elected. Also recall that Tim voted against NBAF funding, voted for the funding when it shaved off $104 million, then went to the groundbreaking and claimed:
"I’ve been working to get NBAF approved and finalized since I was in the Kansas State Senate; it’s been a long road, and this groundbreaking comes not a day too soon."
so, let's just remember Tim wasn't some sort of unique Freedom and liberty flower of unimpeachable ethics.

Is it ethical that this Brian KWCH guy is # instead of @ing Huelskamp?

If it was hand-to-hand combat, man to man, I would have beat him, but clearly he was begging for Super PACs to come in and help him buy this seat

It included roughly $1 billion for Manhattan. Yes, he should vote for any bill with that in it, regardless of whatever else may or may not be in the bill. A Kansan should never vote against the farm bill, either.

Huelskamp further said he is "looking forward to President Trump.”

I read some other articles with amazing quotes as well. The guy is dumbfounded that the establishment wouldn't support him while his caucus pats themselves on the back for for being anti-establishment.

I think we have enough evidence to label him a completely rough ridin' delusional.

This email is too sane to go in the Weird Emails From Parents/Grandparents thread. Just got this from my pops:
Dear SB,
Our postman just told me another reason why Rep. Huelskamp lost his primary election, besides the fact the fact that he is a slimy weasel who doesn't even get along with members of his own party's leadership in Congress:
Huelskamp's campaign sent out thousands of postcards before the election with his campaign office's address on the right side and the constituent's address on the left side.
Love,
Dad

That's the true sin he committed
