House Dems turn out the lights but GOP keeps talking
I rather like this. Why should our nation's representatives adjourn for one month when there is so many issues that need to be addressed?
Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) and other GOP leaders opposed the motion to adjourn the House, arguing that Pelosi's refusal to schedule a vote allowing offshore drilling is hurting the American economy. They have refused to leave the floor after the adjournment motion passed at 11:23 a.m. and are busy bashing Pelosi and her fellow Democrats for leaving town for the August recess.
So right now, the Republicans are talking on the House floor alone, plus the visitor's gallery, the cameras and microphones are off, but they are still there.
Hats off to them for not quitting.
