RODEO CLOWN ROUNDUP! "A Brief Review Of Recent Incumbant Embarrassments and The Candidates Who Need To Replace Them"



Jon Mark
With all the commotion and fuss among the Republican party with the recent 'unpopular' re-election wins in New Jersey, New York and Virginia follows a chain reaction throughout the Republican party. It almost seems like the perfect distraction away from other events that have taken place in Texas politics over these last few months.

Yes, Abbott and Davis are in the spot light but we want to look at some of the U.S. House incumbents from Texas who have been responsible for the recent government shut down and how unflinching they are when they take advantage of ignorance of vulnerable voters who don't have the ability to fact check any of the information they're fed.

It's so ridiculous, you would think that some of our incumbents either believe their own shit or know they have an easy win for re-election with no candidate to challenge them.

We've had to endure one event after another of Republicans who still do and say anything to oppose the President regardless of what it could mean for the rest of us and yet it's still shocking when you have Representative like Rep. Louie Gohmert insinuating conspiracy theories about a secret security force within a section of the Affordable Care Act.

While Gohmert continues to frighten up support in Texas, Rep. Joe Barton was in Washington accusing the Obama administration of secretly hiding malicious source code on the Obamacare site so that a user can 'waive their rights to privacy' away. His gotcha moment was a complete 'fail', but it doesn't stop him or others like Rep. Ralph Hall who was eager to impress Sebelius with his comedic 'chops' during her grilling over the healthcare.gov site.

Can we set some term limits for these guys? I mean, Rep. Hall has been in his seat since 1980 and he really could give a shit at this point, Gohmert is the newest of the three elected in 2004 and he already seems to not care and Barton has been in his seat since 1984.

One of his challengers is Libertarian Hugh Chauvin who, when asked about his reason for running against Barton stated:

I also find it disturbing that he has been a 'no show' for voting in congress 1016 times during his 27 year career in government. This is an average of 37 times a year.”

We're happy to find that Shirley J. McKellar (D), is challenging Gohmert and Libertarian J.P. Raley is going for Ralph Hall's seat. Raley is competing against four other Republicans. It's really time we gave these clowns 'the boot.'

Affordable Care Act Repeal Delay Hides GOP 'Martial Law' Effort to Pass

Embed from Getty Images After seven years of Republicans trying to defeat the Affordable Care Act , their opportunity to immediately repeal the law was delayed by their own faction of right-wing extremists within their own body on Thursday. According to The Washington Post -- one of many media outlets reporting from Capitol Hill -- delaying the repeal of the Affordable Care Act was a confrontation that Republicans made by themselves. Those extremist right-wing elements in the party reportedly feel pressured by their constituents to cut a better deal. But it's not very clear to many Americans that with Republicans messing with the Affordable Care Act, that they're going to help "improve" it. The Post's report on the "embarrassment" says that earlier in the week, House leaders were making some last minute adjustments to pass the bill, but they weren't adjustments that would improve the bill itself but rather to improve ways they c...

"Texas Libertarian Candidate & Texas Immigration Reform"

After the historic shut down that recently took place, all of the talking heads started predicting the next stand-off. What's the next legislative 'obstacle course' these politicians are gonna drag us through now? Everyone weighed in that it would be immigration. As predicted -- it's the 'bitch of the bunch'. It looks like the Democrats want to vote on immigration reform before the end of the year, but again, Republicans want to 'walk' the process by enforcing different parts of a separate bill piece-by-piece while the Democrats wants pass their entire chunk. As of this writing, three Republicans have sided with the Democrats. Obviously, Texas being a border state is definitely making this the main topic for the upcoming election and everyone's moving quickly to fight against or for immigration reform. One group of activists referred to as Stop The Magnet (STM) have been busy demanding that the law be enforced to keep '...

Watch As I Enroll For Healthcare At The Last Minute

Okay. I'm sitting down right now and it's 4:06 pm. Enrollment ends tonight at 11:00pm CST. Let's do this. 1. So here I am. I need to see the plans.
