With millions of people still out of work and millions more working full time yet still living below the poverty line, with students drowning in debt, with roads and bridges crumbling, is this really what the House Republicans are choosing to spend their time on? Even for guys who have so few solutions to offer that they have voted 54 times to repeal Obamacare, this is a new low.
House Republicans are doing whatever they can to distract the American people from what's really going on in Washington a rigged system that works great for those who have armies of lobbyists and lawyers but that leaves everyone else behind. A system in which Republicans protect tax breaks for billionaires while they block increases in the minimum wage for millions of people who work full time and live in poverty. A system

(1,898 posts)I would be bringing up a minimum wage vote everyday from now until November. Every time they vote it down I would come back with a higher number. So if they vote down $10.10 go up to $10.50, and then $11.00 and so on until they either accept it.

Republican Armed Services Committee Chairman Buck McKeon is slamming the testimony of a key Benghazi witness before the committee of Republican Oversight Chair Darrell Issa.
Its a rare rebuke of Issa from a member of his own party and exposes a rift, even if small, over conservatives prosecution of Benghazi, the alleged cover-up of which they believe is a winning issue for them in the 2014 elections.
McKeon (R-Calif.) called Brig. Gen. Robert Lovell an unreliable witness and criticized Lovells assertion that the State Department was not quick to deploy troops to respond to the 2012 terrorist attack in Libya. Lovell testified Thursday before Issas (R-Calif.) oversight panel.
