[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 536688, member: 2189"] Timeline: What Pelosi Knew and When Since I know from some part of the Amen corner here, this will come up so might as well go ahead and hit it head on. I can't address Jones reasons but Paul's office has commented. [URL='https://web.archive.org/web/20130622094147/https://washingtonindependent.com/44117/ron-pauls-vote-against-the-pelosi-commission-resolution'][COLOR=red]Paul on Pelosi Commisission Vote[/COLOR][/URL] I guess if you're emotionally driven with irrational partisan politics, Paul and Jones actions would be contemptable but if you see what is happening in Washington is nothing more than political theater at it's worst or best, what Paul and Jones did may have been the right thing. Pelosi deserves to walk the political plank for so many more reasons, no argument from me but if the republican party thinks it can ignore it's own fault in it's huge fall from grace by just ignoring any principle and then yelling because they got caught and that little Nancy's hand is in the jar too, then my guess is President Obama and the democrats can make the kind of long term plans a 2nd Presidential term allows one to make. Just on sheer numbers, the republicans never had a chance even with Paul's support but on the flipside, had this passed, the Congress would then spend the foreseeable future in utter chaos fighting over whose at fault. With such fighting 2 things happen. 1st: nothing gets done which in our case IMO is a good thing. The less these folks do the better. 2nd: As the rock throwing begins, it tends to esculate and the potential for the ever explosive nuclear revelation that could shatter the very foundation our gov't sits own. In that case and from that position, IMO you could argue Paul and Jones were wrong and should have voted with the republicans but in truth that's the last thing the repubs want anyway. But I'm patient, one day they'll all screw up and go to far and then it's showtime! :happy-very: [/QUOTE]
