GOP secretly changes the rules

The GOP's little rule change they hoped you wouldn't notice

Previously, any Member would have had the right to bring the CR up for a vote. Democracy has been suspended in the House of Representatives.

Starting this Blog so I don't have to post my personal life and trivia in my other Blogs that mainly are concerned with Mexico

The original reason for this Blog has changed a bit towards being political and exposing a few jerks that we run across in the news or in person. Hope some of you find it interesting.
