Speaker Boehner: The revolution will be livestreamed

"In addition to Facebook, Boehner (above) often 'tweets' out comments or announcements, but the Speaker-designate will change his Twitter name to reflect his new position. That change is not expected to happen until later Tuesday night and Boehner's staff is not releasing what his new Twitter handle will be yet," reports CNN's politicalticker.

"Seems like John Boehner's been studying Sarah Palin's embrace of the full panoply of media, old & new," we just twittered: "Opening gavel tomorrow to livestream on Facebook" …

We assume they'll be livestreaming the controversial reading of the Constitution on Friday, blogged here. Rube that we are, we have to admit we get goosebumps at the thought of this obvious "stunt," the "showy equivalent of wearing a flag pin" — We're still sporting our post-9/11 flag pin to this day! — as bitter dustbin-of-history opinionator David Corn scoffs. Sorry, David. Disintermediating the powers that be via the internet is where we're at …

    Heh…
    LOVE IT…!!!
    Keep those “stunts” coming. The people get it…

  2. barfo says:

    Only day one of the “revolution” and the wingnuts are already resigned to expect only empty gestures from the big government republicans they helped back into power.

  3. barfo says:

    I see no wingnut site has mentioned the House republicans today exempted huge sections of the federal budget from their budget balancing rules, sissy.
    Yet all the wingnut sites are making a big deal out of their boring boilerplate reading of the Constitution.
    All part of the plan?

    “House republicans today exempted huge sections of the federal budget from their budget balancing rules”
    Just curious, barfo…
    did that break new ground…?

    Speaking of Boehner, he has been working behind the scenes for the election of Cino as the RNC Chair.
    I am leary of Cino as she seems to be the kind of inside-the-beltway RINO that we already have to many of.
    However I also came across an article about Dick Cheney being a supporter of Cino.
    Sooo, I’m now having second thoughts about her as who am I to contradict someone such as Cheney. I’m sure he knows more about her than I or many others that have shaped my opinion.
    Perhaps there’s more to her than meets the eye.

    Rags: “Just curious, barfo…did that break new ground…?”
    Clearly, no.
    Only a small portion of the budget involves discretionary spending.
    Charlie/barfo, like all lefties, is hoping anyone who reads his adolescent posts are as ill-informed and easily misled as he.
    LOL!

  7. Drago says:

    You’ll notice Rags that once again, Charlie/barfo has “forgotten” to provide a link or a cite to back up his claim, thereby violating salvages “”FACTS” “JUST FACTS” and “MORE FACTS” baby” rule!
    LOL!

  8. Ragspierre says:

    But barfo is a liar, as we know…

  9. Neo says:

    This will leave a mark …
    Senators Reid, Durbin, Schumer, Murray and Stabenow:
    Thank you for reminding us – and the American people – of the backroom deal that you struck behind closed doors with ‘Big Pharma,’ resulting in bigger profits for the drug companies, and higher prescription drug costs for 33 million seniors enrolled in Medicare Part D, at a cost to the taxpayers of $42.6 billion.
    The House is going to pass legislation to repeal that now. You’re welcome.

    Drago/rags,
    It’s rarely worth the effort to sort through your spittle-flecked rants to try to fathom what you’re trying to say, so you’ll forgive me if I don’t often reply to the “two” of you.
    Perhaps we should talk about the House republican’s decision today to just rename “earmarks” to “lettermarks” so they can tell the gullible rubes who voted for them that they have ended earmarks.

  11. Drago says:

    I saw that earlier Neo.
    Hil-ar-i-ous!!
    Charlie/barfo will be along in a minute to explain why it’s rude for the Speaker of the House to refuse to accept directives from the Senate Majority Leader………..well, Senate Majority Leader until January of 2013….LOL!

  12. Drago says:

    Charlie/barfo: “Perhaps we should talk about the House republican’s decision today to just rename “earmarks” to “lettermarks” so they can tell the gullible rubes who voted for them that they have ended earmarks.”
    Is this comment coming from a devoted lefty whose crazy-left President has just signed onto Reagan-style supply-side economic policy? LOL!!
    Talk about a gullible rube!!!
    LOL!
    Hey Charlie/barfo, we don’t care what you say. Your opinion is meaningless.
    America has taken the measure of the dems and rendered their judgement.
    And dude, it wasn’t good for your side!! LOL!
    But go ahead and believe!! Believe!
    Obambi has just signed on to 2 more years of the Bush tax cuts, something he said he would never do!!
    And still you believe!!
    Obambi has continued and/or expaned EVERY SINGLE BUSH WAR AND SECURITY POLICY! Every single one.
    And still you believe!!
    The dems promised the most transparent admin in history!! and even the MSM won’t cover for them on that one!!
    And still you believe!!
    You are the very definition of “gullible rube”!!!
    Now shut up and vacuum your room before your mom gets angry with you!!
    LOL!

  13. Drago says:

    Can someone who is not cramping up from laughter at Charlie/barfo’s stupidity update him on the status of the plan to close GITMO?
    I mean, our delicate diversity hire promised he would close it, didn’t he?
    And still barfo believes!!
    “Gullible rube” indeed!!
    LOL!

    barfo–
    “Yet all the wingnut sites are making a big deal out of their boring boilerplate reading of the Constitution.”
    And there is the Collectivists love of the Constitution, on full display.
    “Boilerplate”.
    NEVER, EVER let them tell you they give a fig about this nation.

  16. Drago says:

    Charlie/barfo, oil is getting close to $100 per barrel!
    Thanks Dems/libs/lefties!!
    Heckuva job fella’s!

    Old news, dear barfo, and again, you have no idea what you’re talking about. Just more moonbat madness that went nowhere.

  18. Ragspierre says:

    Does it hurt to be a Toilet Paper Memos/Soros tool, barfo…???

  19. Ragspierre says:

    Ah, the wages of Toilet Paper Memos…
    Right, barfo…???
    What’s it like to be a Soros tool?

  20. barfo says:

    “Just more moonbat madness that went nowhere.”
    Haha, Suze.
    There are now two kinds of wingnut blogs.
    The ones that hold the House republicans to their promises.
    And the ones look the other way when House republicans break their promises and cheer every empty gesture they make and applaud every meaningless vote they hold.
    There’s no doubt which kind this blog’s squatters want to turn it into.

  21. Sissy Willis says:

    Woo hoo! More bad news for barfo & company: Republican House is re-imposing chairmanship term limits: http://bit.ly/eOCMVW YES, WE CAN!

  22. Ragspierre says:

    barfo, you get more bitter and stupid with each passing hour.
    Go on a trip or something…

  23. Drago says:

    Has barfo addressed the “FACT”, “FACT BABY” that obambi voted against raising the debt ceiling in 2006?
    Has barfo addressed the “FACT”, “FACT BABY” that obambi has accepted Reagan-era supply-side eonomic policy by signing an extension of the Bush tax cuts?
    Has barfo addressed the “FACT”, “FACT BABY” that obambi has continued and/or expanded EVERY SINGLE BUSH WAR AND SECURITY policy?
    Has barfo addressed the “FACT”, “FACT BABY” that obambi has tripled the budget deficit every years since taking office and then asks his dem pals last year to “look for” $100 million in budget cuts (“look for”, not actually find!!)!!
    I could go on and on.
    Some lefties are principled and some lefties, like Charlie/barfo, simply look the other way when obambi breaks his promises and cheers every empty gesture obambi makes! And there’s no doubt which kind of lefty Charlie/barfo is!!
    LOL!
    I’m actually beginning to think that around election time the troll posting as Charlie/barfo was changed because the quality of trolling by Charlie/barfo has collapsed!!
    Much like private sector job creation under obambi/dems/barfo!
    Hey, did you hear gas prices are heading up up up?
    Charlie/barfo will be along to shortly to explain why it’s all BushCheneyHalliburtonsNeoCons fault. LOL!

    Just stop it! You people are stoooooooopid!
