Rep. Justin Amash [a libertarian] insists the group that pushed John Boehner to the exits isn't just a bunch of bomb throwers. They want real reform in how the House works. [No the don’t they want to control the House….and they are damn well doing it!]

Rep. Justin Amash, a leader of the House Freedom Caucus who helped plunge the House of Representatives into an unprecedented state of chaos, wants to talk about rules.

[…]

Amash, a 35-year-old libertarian-minded Republican first elected in the tea party wave of 2010, is at the heart of a new power center in the House Republican Conference. With roughly 40 members, the Freedom Caucus has an outsized role in selecting the next speaker of the House. If its members vote as a bloc, which they say they intend to do, it essentially gives them veto power over the next speaker of the House [and it gives them power to do anything they damn well please….or the power to stop anything his libertarian ass doesn’t like].

[…] “The worst scenario,” Amash continued, “is where you have one person or a small group of people dictate to everyone else what the outcome is going to be in advance.”

[Yea, tell me about it …]

The obsession of the House Freedom Caucus

That much power, two men controlling the Freedom Caucus, a block of around 40 House members [well, less one who was smart enough to resign from the Freedom Caucus today….way to go, Poe] who meet secretly and decide the course of action they will take in a block vote is dangerous to our democratic institution and must in some way be stopped. They are in total control of what they permit the House to do and not do….this is shameful. JMO …

That much power, two men controlling the Freedom Caucus, a block of around 40 House members ... who meet secretly and decide the course of action they will take in a block vote is dangerous to our democratic institution

But Lyin' Ryan and his liberal henchmen, lying to everyone on all sides, locking themselves away in secret to write a bill to really screw conservative states (who were expected to take one for the team) and reward liberal Republicans in Blue states by letting them keep their 0bamaCare subsidies and then, to top it off, Lyin' Ryan lured poor gullible Trump in to try to steamroll the brave Freedom Caucus who were just trying to protect their own constituents from Lyin' Ryan's bill, none of that would be considered "dangerous to our democratic institution"?

Why is it good for Lyin' Ryan to lock himself away in secret to write half-baked slated healthcare bills but not good for the Freedom Caucus to say no to that and demand a chance to offer their own amendments, fundamental to the working of American democracy in the House of Representatives, the most democratic branch of government?

Thank God for the Freedom Caucus. I admire them more each and every day.
