so yesterday I told you about this rule that was change just before the
beginning of the government shutdown
in the house of representatives which would only allow the house
majority leader or their designee to actually put forth a vote on a proposal
to
and the government shutdown I do one issue a correction yesterday
although I said the house majority leader initially
I then referred to the speaker the house in john bainer so to have
absolute clarity this evening Louis to channel Phil Davison
in the interest of clarity it is the House Majority Leader Eric Cantor
or his designee who would be after this rule change
able to put forth a proposal to end the shutdown so
now that that has started to enter the at least the alternative media
and social media and online world is a topic of discussion
it still basically making no waves on corporate media which is
no surprise to any of us if we pay attention to the media landscape
we now have congresswoman Louise slaughter
on video confronting Congressman Steve sessions who is the House Rules
Committee Chairman who basically
concocted this entire thing and saying why did you do this
here's the video above it now pay very close attention to the explanation he
gives
because it is completely ridiculous and not believable
if you have any idea up what's been going on in politics since President
Obama was elected
let's watch the video
that under regular order at the house any member
in call for a vote on the Senate proposal but you change that regular
order and this resolution
battery which are here do it can you tell us why you can't
in in fact that is correct what we're attempting to do is to actually
get our people together rather than trying to make a decision we're trying
to actually have a conference
and the gentlewoman knows that there are rules related to
a privilege motions that could take place almost effective immediately
and we're trying to go to conference a week things a URL quickest way to get
that done
as the regular orders because because do that under the rule
well in fact you're correct again and the reason why is because we're
attempting to get
the four groups of people together senate Republicans and Democrats
House Republicans and Democrats and under those rules that you know that you
were
in reference to there could be a motion as early tonight
and it could be up up congress would be avoided
and we won a conference we want to have a actual Russia's finance me there could
well motion
your you it you know that that there could be a privilege motion
it any time once we call for a vote on Say
as I believe that there and I think you've clicked on their way
that's one same we took that away because we're usually guilty
me listen to that Lewis he just wanted
everybody to get together and really agree
Democrats and Republicans from the House and the Senate
everybody needed to power well when sit around the fire and sing Kumbaya ya
because the interest have the Republican Party
all of a sudden is everybody getting along and agreeing in compromising
this is just not believable
you would have to be a cool if you've been following politics
at all since President Obama was elected to believe that the reason for passing
this law
right before the shutdown in the middle of the night is because you really want
to make sure everybody's of friends and agreeing on stuff before you open the
government back up
it's the diplomatic answer is really just giving a non-answer he's really
avoiding the question
and that that's always doing and it's it's the diplomatic response that it I
guess it
some people are listening they might say oh well maybe it's not so bad but
we know the real you and what's fascinating about this is that
the fact that he's obviously lying
that the republicans really care what the democrats
think or want or whatever shows us that
there's not even any consideration given to what the american people that elected
these at these guys and gals
want that they don't care about that at all it's not even entering into the
picture
because if it were we wouldn't even have had this shutdown in the first place
right
yet how many of these voters are furloughed right now I wonder
yeah its its the explanation
is absurd but it does now put on video
and obvious outright lie that that
goes completely against everything that has happened politically leading back to
President Obama being elected
and those Republicans meeting in a DC restaurant and saying whatever we have
to do
we're gonna get in the way and not let him do anything
