No House resolution honoring SEAL's bin Laden mission - Page 8

yeah. I think it probably just followed too close on the heels of the previous debate. Straw and camel's back.

Oh buttfuck Flint in the mouth.

Hey Flint, where's your outrage at the outrage that's expressed in terms of demons and whores and demonwhores? You just pop up to get snippy with someone who actually has something to say?

jill fucked up. She should've shown her ass then Flint would've respected her up and down the street. Though, having a personality and a mind of her own might trump that admiration.

Flint's selective outrage at the outrage is outrageous. OUTRAGEOUS!!!1!!

See, jill, some in the Cellar like the women to be SEEN and not HEARD.

as Dana said: ffs

Wow. This is an excellent post and really has me re-thinking a LOT of my interaction and communication techniques/habits. I'm not saying this in relation to anyone in specific, but just how I, as a female raised largely in the 70's of Ameria, feel she MUST tailor/stifle herself to even be considered to be HEARD.
This was an ah - ha moment for me - one of many that I've recently had/been able to make a connection.

Thank you, Infinite Monkey. I feel a bit different today because of your post.

I hope you feel different in a good way?

I hold you in high esteem, deservedly so.

If you come back I'll tell you tales of my days of bartending at the country club when Boehner was just then schmoozing his way up the ladder and I got to watch the Richie Rich's crawl up his ass!

F&B The resolution that was proposed in House commended the forces on site, the intel community and, here's the problem IMO, both Bush and Obama equally.

After rereading, I still don't see the issue the R's have. Pass the damn thing and get back to work. There is much to be done. I'm more than a lil pissed about this now. There isn't a lot of coverage on the issue, but it is wasting time on something that has nothing to do with the real issues at hand - Jobs, economy, deficit/debt...

STFU & get to work.

From what I've heard, the "rules" committee (which is more of a sort-of-guidelines-if-the-speaker-wants committee) of the House, at the start of the current legislative session, declared that the House would no longer vote on resolutions to honor or recognise people, groups, or events, using the bloat of resolutions honoring everything from little-league baseball teams to military operations to civil rights leaders as the rationale. And I can't say I disagree with the sentiment - even though it takes hardly any time and has no policy impact, the hundreds of bills congress passes honoring or recognising who- or whatever is a little ridiculous.
But such a categoric refusal to vote on ANY bill honoring ANYTHING is a little much. This is the kind of event that the congressional record and the idea of passing resolutions to honor people is MEANT FOR. it's either a political ploy or an extreme and fundamentalist point of view on the negativity of ANY AND ALL resolutions EVER that honor shit.

I'd like "Political Ploys" for $500. please.

When everything gets honored it does rather water down the value of being honored, which, IMO, should be reserved for things like what the SEALs done did.

Special Olympics notwithstanding, we are not all winners worthy of special mention and honor.

Damn. Seriously? Who knew?

SPOILER ALERT:

Dana, I know you are probably feeling a bit stunned, it was a double whammy for me because I found that out at the same time I learned there was no easter bunny. It made for a rough year.

DanaC · 05-06-2011, 12:34 PM

I'm sorry, what? What about the Easter Bunny? OHMIGOD, wtf happened to the Easter Bunny!?
