Boehner: F**k Louie Gohmert And His Pea-Brain Mutiny!

Boehner may strip leadership roles from some of the insurgents who opposed him.

The inept Republicans take control of Congress and it was a bit of drama on the floor today. The weeper of the House of Representatives John Boehner (R-OH) won a third term. But this comes with a price. Seriously he has to control members of his own party.

These members are the insurgency. And a handful of them went on to cast doubt on him.

25 Insurgent representatives led by Ted Yoho (R-FL) and Louie Gohmert (R-TX) voted against having Boehner as their House Speaker.

Boehner had to fend off a defection from within his own party that was the biggest such revolt in more than 150 years.

List of sausage trying to shove itself into the grinder.

The Hill reports that Rep. Daniel Webster (R-Fla.), whose nomination for Speaker became public just minutes before the vote, attracted the most votes at 12.

Meanwhile, the other two long-shot candidates, Reps. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) and Ted Yoho (R-Fla.) only received three and two votes each.

Additionally, freshman Rep. Brian Babin (R-Texas) voted "present" rather than voting for anyone. And two Republican lawmakers voted for people who aren't even members of the House: Rep. Gary Palmer (R-Ala.) for Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), and Rep. Curt Clawson (R-Fla.) for Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.).

Many of the votes for GOP candidates apart from Boehner drew murmurs and sometimes even outright laughter in the House chamber. The votes for Paul and Sessions drew the most derision from fellow lawmakers.

The insurgency will fight again!

Most of the lawmakers who voted against Boehner are hard-line conservatives who particularly opposed the GOP leadership's handling of the government-wide spending bill last month. Many conservatives had urged leadership to defund President Obama's executive action to shield illegal immigrants from deportation. But the "cromnibus" spending package didn't include such a provision.

Many lawmakers were absent from the vote due to former New York Gov. Mario Cuomo's (D) funeral in New York and snow in Washington, D.C. Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.), a favorite for Speaker among some Tea Party supporters, didn't make it in time due to the weather but said he would have voted for Boehner.

On the Democratic side, only four lawmakers voted for candidates aside from House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). Rep. Jim Cooper (D-Tenn.) voted for former Secretary of State Colin Powell, while Rep. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) voted for civil rights icon Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.). And Rep. Gwen Graham (D-Fla.), who stated she wouldn't support Pelosi on the campaign trail, voted for Cooper.

Boehner is not going to strip them of their committee chairs yet. But beware, this symbolic opposition may bite them in the ass. The Insurgency wants to oppose President Barack Obama.

I guess the Insurgency wants to oppose the weeper and turtle!

This is the beginning of a long two years for Obama. With the Republicans in charge, what kind of stupidity will it bring?

Walking Dead future set in Tole-duh, Ohio.

Mario Cuomo And Edward Brooke Passed Away!

Two legendary politicians passed away this month. The former New York governor and liberal titian Mario Cuomo passed away this month. And we just found out that Edward Brooke, the first Black senator from Massachusetts has passed away.

Mario Cuomo was an American politician and member of the Democratic Party. He served as the 52nd Governor of New York for three terms, from 1983 to 1994,

Lieutenant Governor of New York from 1979 to 1982, and Secretary of State of New York from 1975 to 1978.

Cuomo was known for his liberal views and public speeches, particularly his keynote speech at the 1984 Democratic National Convention where he criticized Ronald Reagan's policies.

The speech brought him to national attention, and he was widely considered a front-runner for the Democratic nomination for President in both 1988 and 1992, but he declined to seek the nomination in both instances. His legacy as a reluctant standard-bearer for the Democrats in presidential elections led to him being dubbed "Hamlet on the Hudson".

Cuomo was defeated for a fourth term as Governor by George Pataki in the Republican Revolution of 1994, and he subsequently retired from politics. He was the father of five, including Andrew Cuomo, the current Governor of New York, and journalist Chris Cuomo, currently at CNN.

He died of natural causes due to heart failure in Manhattan, New York City on New Year's Day, 2015.

President Barack Obama and former Massachusetts Senator Edward Brooke, the first African American Republican to be elected since Reconstruction.

No other senator of African heritage was elected until Democrat Carol Moseley Braun of Illinois in 1993. As of 2014 Brooke was the only African-American Senator to serve multiple terms. He was elected to the Senate as a Republican from Massachusetts, defeating former Massachusetts governor Democrat Endicott Peabody in a landslide. He served for two terms, and was defeated by Paul Tsongas in the 1978 senate election.

Brooke was the last Republican Senator elected from Massachusetts until Scott Brown was elected in 2010. At his death in 2015, Brooke was the oldest living former Senator.

In 1967, he was awarded the Spingarn Medal from the NAACP.

In 1966, Brooke defeated former Governor Endicott Peabody with 1,213,473 votes to 744,761, and served as a United States Senator for two terms, from January 3, 1967, to January 3, 1979.

The black vote had, Time wrote, "no measurable bearing" on the election as less than 3% of the state's population was black, and Peabody also supported civil rights for blacks. Brooke stated "I do not intend to be a national leader of the Negro people", and the magazine stated that he "condemned both Stokely Carmichael and Georgia's Lester Maddox" as extremists; nonetheless, his historic election gave Brooke "a 50-state constituency, a power base that no other Senator can claim." In 1967, he served on the President's Commission on Civil Disorders. He was a member of the moderate wing of the Republican Party and organized the Senate's "Wednesday Club" of progressive Republicans who met for Wednesday lunches and strategy discussions. Brooke, who had supported Michigan Governor George W. Romney and then New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller's bids for the 1968 GOP presidential nomination against Richard Nixon's, often differed with President Nixon on matters of social policy and civil rights.

By his second year in the Senate, Brooke had taken his place as a leading advocate against discrimination in housing and on behalf of affordable housing. With Walter Mondale, a Minnesota Democrat and fellow member of the Senate Banking Committee, he co-authored the 1968 Fair Housing Act, which prohibits discrimination in housing, and created HUD's Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity as the primary enforcer of the law. President Johnson signed the Fair Housing Act into law on April 11, one week after the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr.. Dissatisfied with the weakened enforcement provisions that emerged from the legislative process,

Brooke repeatedly proposed stronger provisions during his Senate career. In 1969, Congress enacted the "Brooke Amendment" to the federal publicly assisted housing program which limited the tenants' out-of-pocket rent expenditure to 25 percent of his or her income. By the 1990s, the percentage had gradually increased, but the principle of limiting the housing 'burden' of very-low income renters survives in statute, as of 2008.

During the Nixon presidency, Brooke opposed repeated Administration attempts to close down the Job Corps and the Office of Economic Opportunity and to weaken the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission—all foundational elements of President Lyndon Johnson's Great Society.

In 1969, Brooke was a leader of the bipartisan coalition that defeated the Senate confirmation of the President's nominee to the Supreme Court, Clement Haynsworth. A few months later, he again organized sufficient Republican support to defeat Nixon's second Supreme Court nominee Harrold Carswell. Nixon then turned to Harry A. Blackmun, later the author of the Roe v. Wade opinion.

In 2008, Barbara Walters wrote in her memoir Audition that she and Brooke had an affair lasting several years during the 1970s, while Brooke was married to his first wife. Walters said that they ended the relationship to protect their careers from possible scandal.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the families of Mario Cuomo and Edward Brooke.

Huckbee Exits Loserville! Might Jump Into Clown Car!

Huckabee is going to do it again!

The former agitator on Loserville may jump into the 2016 clown car. Mike Huckabee ran for president back in 2008 and was a credible candidate. Now he's thinking about doing it again.

Huckabee, a former governor from Arkansas became the unlikely winner of the 2008 Iowa Caucus where he swept through the perennial losers Mitt Romney and Senator John McCain (R-AZ).

Huckabee was probably one of the better Republicans.

Anyway, Mr. Libido is about to explore his chances seeing that Jeb Bush is really considering his chances at running for president. Bush resigned from all his organizations and has sought advice on how to create a presidential exploratory committee.

Until January 3, 2015, Huckabee hosted the eponymous his talk show called Huckabee, before ending the show in order to investigate the possibility of a 2016 presidential candidacy.

From April 2012 through December 2013, he hosted a daily radio program, The Mike Huckabee Show, on weekday afternoons for Cumulus Media Networks.

Huckabee is the author of several best-selling books, an ordained Southern Baptist minister, musician and a public speaker. He is also an ABC Radio political commentator.

Don't get me wrong, I like the guy.

Unfortunately, he's just another dope. He's speaks from the ass and not from the heart.

Stan Solomon And Larry Pratt: These "Die In" Protesters Are Roadkill!

Nutjob with a gun. The founder of Gun Owners of America was on an extremist radio show talking about protesters being responsible for the deaths of NYPD cops.

Gun Owners of America is a gun rights organization founded by far right extremist Larry Pratt.

Pratt is one of these White extremists who parade on wackadoodle radio these conspiracies about President Barack Obama, the gun control advocates and even the National Rifle Association.

Pratt has spoken at meetings organized by white supremacist and militia leaders. Pratt denied any ties to racism, calling accusations smears aimed at hurting him.

Pratt is not well liked by the NRA and those who support gun control.

RightWingWatch notes that Pratt was on extremist radio with Stan Solomon. The extremists were bitching about the protesters doing die ins for Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, John Crawford, Eric Garner and Tamir Rice.

According to the extremists, they would rather see the cars run their ass down.

Solomon and Pratt discussed the assassination of two police officers in New York last week, which they blamed on demonstrators.

Solomon, trying to give Pratt cover by saying “Larry will not condone this” suggested, “The next time there’s a die-in, make sure they’re dead. The next time they block the road, run their asses over. I think it will slow down.”

“Well, it’s a very confrontational mentality that we’re dealing with,” Pratt responded, “and at some point the police will have to come to the conclusion that it’s us or them.”

He went on to suggest that the protests would create “no-go zones” in cities where police would refuse to enter: "If they’re going to have to deal with an enemy terrain where a lot of people, and they can’t sort out ahead of time who’s the enemy and who is not, I think that’s going to lead to the conclusion that ‘I’m not going in there.’"

Texas Family Got N***a Food Service!

Again the retail and food service industry brings us the best. And then some. I mean half of the dedicated workers of the service industry go out their way to serve a guest.

If you're in the food and beverage establishments where tipping is a key to pulling in reasonable income, you would treat that guest like their a part of the family.

Four area Dallas residents were given the business. They ended up each getting a receipt with the word NIGGA on it.

Shatila Restaurant in Pantego, Texas, used the N-word on each of their receipts, followed by a number the server presumably used to keep their orders straight, reported KTVT-TV.

Nigga on the restaurant receipt.

They checked with other diners, but none of them had similar notes on their receipts.

“It’s sad that it’s still occurring,” Ta’les Russell told the TV station. “We are here in the new year, starting fresh, celebrating with family and friends. This is the worst way to start, with everything going on in our society in Ferguson. It’s sad that we have to experience this still today in 2015.”

They said the manager of the Lebanese restaurant and hookah bar apologized, offered them free meals, and told them the server — identified on the receipts as Ragheed — had been fired.

The manager said the server was new and meant no harm, but the group said he should not have felt comfortable expressing himself using racial slurs while on the job.

“They need to emphasize it to their staff,” said Jasmine Tucker. “They can let go our waiter, but what if the rest of their waiters are doing the same thing? They need to emphasize this is not OK.”

The server was fired out the cannon and the owner offered his apologies.

Alabama Family Getting A Move N****r Notice!

ABC 33/40 - Birmingham News, Weather, Sports


Alabama sheriffs are investigating a complaint filed by an African American family. They claim that their home was vandalized and spray painted with the ugly racial slur. It read MOVE NIGGER NOW!

Again, I don't want to jump to conclusions about these type of stories. Sure, this is horrific for a family to see this type of stuff happen. The peace and tranquility of your home being destroyed by the low lives of American ignorance.

The homeowner said she was at home with her granddaughter Wednesday night when she heard glass breaking at the front of the house. She called 911 and deputies arrived to find three windows broken by rocks and a racial slur painted on the garage door. The homeowner said she did not know why anyone would target her.

Yeah, mindset are deep rooted in some parts of the state. But does this ignorance play out inside the suburbs?

Limestone County is a part of the Huntsville-Decatur metro area. Limestone County is located in Northern Alabama.

Elkmont, Alabama is a town of 470 people, The racial makeup of the town was 83.40% White, 15.11% Black or African American, 1.06% from other races, and 0.43% from two or more races. 1.28% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race.

This is America in 2015.
