Here Are The 28 Republican Betrayers Who Gave Obama A 'Clean' Debt Limit Increase
Submitted for your approval; here are the names of the 28 Republicans who betrayed the American people, and conservatives sea to shining sea, by voting to give Barack Obama the authority to raise the debt limit and spend our great nation into bankruptcy.
Learn the free or cheap way to get clean, pure drinking water for you and your family – no matter what is happening around you. Watch the video.
But, before we give you the names (below) there are two points that are worth noting.
Barack Obama may have a pen and a phone but the House of Representatives holds the nation's checkbook. In essence, John Boehner just signed a blank check and gave it to Barack Obama, along with the authority to borrow the money (much of it from unfriendly foreign nations) to cover the check; and he did it without asking Mr. Obama for anything - repeat, anything - in return. The fact that our nation is already overextended apparently meant nothing and Mr. Boehner, yet again, wasted a golden opportunity to put a stop to Barack Obama's out-of-control spending.
And no, it's not unfair to lay most of the blame at the feet of Mr. Boehner. One person, and one person alone, has the authority to block any vote in the House of Representatives, and that's the Speaker of the House. Don't be deceived by Mr. Boehner's statements that he didn't have enough Republican votes to stop the House of Representatives from raising the debt ceiling; he could have stopped it with one word, "no."
Moreover, we should consider that John Boehner, once again, broke his promise to employ what is known as the "Hastert Rule" - a unofficial policy that bears the name of former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert. Under the Hastert Rule, the Speaker of the House promises to block a vote on any measure that does not have the support of the majority of the Republican caucus in the House of Representatives; and Mr. Boehner broke his word that he would follow the Hastert Rule.
And now, here are the names of the 28 Republican betrayers. Remember these names. Print out this article and post the names on your bedroom wall if you must, but whatever you may do in the future, remember these names:
Speaker of the House John Boehner, House Majority Leader Eric I. Cantor (R-VA), House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), Rep. Peter Roskam (R-IL), John Shimkus (R-IL), Devin Nunes (R-CA), Hal Rogers (R-KY), Dave Camp (R-MI), Howard "Buck" McKeon (R-CA), Darrell Issa (R-CA), Ed Royce (R-CA) Howard Coble (R-NC), Jon Runyan (R-NJ), Frank Wolf (R-VA), Ken Calvert (R-CA), Chris Collins (R-NY), Charlie Dent (R-PA), Mike Fitzpatrick (R-PA), Michael Grimm (R-NY), Richard Hanna (R-NY), Doc Hastings (R-WA), Peter King (R-NY), Frank LoBiondo (R-NJ), Pat Meehan (R-PA), Gary Miller (R-CA), Dave Reichert (R-WA), Christopher Smith (R-NJ) and David Valadao (R-CA).

What difference does it make... The debt is illegal... We might as well use the phony money to help people such as the unemployed and people on food stamps (the ones that truly need it) while we wait for a currency reset. All this debt will get wiped out anyway.
I applaud the only Republicans that have a grain of common sense. The last government shutdown should have taught more of them a lesson. These particular ones are in fear of their jobs if they had voted for measures that would have harmed their constituents back home. The ones that voted against raising the debt ceiling will surely fall come voting time because the Republican party is losing the demographic war as our nation is changing toward doing what is best for huge numbers of minorities, gays, women, and younger voters that want change that reflects their better interests and families. There is a changing of the guard happening before our very eyes and some politicians are catching on and voting accordingly.
You don't get to become a Congressman or Senator if you are honest. Why do people keep believing that their is any honest, patriots serving in the Federal Government? People like that are murdered or barred from serving!
Have you ever googled to compare the number of times Republican administrations raised the debt ceiling? I think you will find they were very good at doing this and far out number the times Democrats have done the same.
Republicans did not betray us, no politician is on the side of the people, the parties is a game they play to keep us believing we have choices, is funny to see Boehner's name on the list some people used to think he was going to be our savior! They are nothing but corrupt crooks, the whole bunch of them!
