Its time now for Republicans to hold their own to account. Massie needs to go and republicans need to lead the charge.
That is up to the people in his district, no one else's concern.

Yes, the bill has some issues, however, Massie knew it was going to pass, yet he still pulled the little stunt he did. His objections, pointing out things, etc, were meaningless, because everyone already stated they are going to vote for it. He was just grandstanding and wasting everyone's time.

Unfortunately, NKY is tea party district, so Massie’s pearl clutching theatrics will likely continue.

I actually like guy, or maybe I like the stand by your convictions types.


Basically he wanted everyone's vote to be on record? It would have held up the bill, what hours? Hours???


I didn't know one's vote could not be on record. I think all votes should be on record. Anonymous voting seems quite shady to me.

I can just picture the demographic of his district.

I don't think we needed congressmen flying back to DC at this time.


If he had conviction he could have sponsored some spending cuts during his term rather than wait until now to make a scene.

I agree he should be kicked out period. What a jerk. This is not the time to behave like that. I do t care whether you agree with some part of the bill or not.

I think its ironic. My father always said they needed to line the house and senate up every year and shoot every 10th one...........tell the rest to straighten up or will do it again next year..........Massie is just putting my dads suggestion into practice........
