Yall make this too easy. Only 9 members voted against  him on the house floor.

Dont know how big the freedom caucus  is but  i am reasonably certain the large majority ended  up voting yes.

Excellent.  Then you should have no problem posting the roll call.  I want to see who voted for him.

Now this link claims there is at least 36 members and  it appears almost all the founding members voted for  Ryan.

Point is  i was right that the freedom caucus backed Ryan and  if they hadnt Ryan wouldnt be speaker. If  i were  in AZ right  now  i would someone primaries Jeff Flake.

Doing the Two Step with two Leftist feet exposes your inability to address my points about a Dim come back, which everyone seems to know is an impossibility but you.
Now let us try this again without your emotional pleas, show me using numbers, how the Dim party has even the tiniest chance of returning to power
Keep in mind, I've been saying for years that the Dim party was technically dead and headed for certain demise, and now it's happened, and you claim they're on the verge of taking back the House?
Prove It!

Oh, and you do know how to use an apostrophe ( ' ) and Capitalize letters, right? '

????? The info that I have indicates that there was only 1 GOP member that didn't vote for Ryan's re-election as Speaker of the House.  So ... how is it that you come up with had the Freedom Caucus not backed Ryan he would not be Speaker??

Chew on this for a sec.   What happens to McCain if Trump pulls his healthcare?
http://dailysignal.com/2017/07/31/how-trump-could-force-congress-and-its-staff-to-live-under-obamacare/

QuoteOver the weekend, Trump tweeted that he could take away the exemption, granted by the Obama administration's Office of Personnel Management, to prod Congress toward agreement on getting rid of Obamacare.

The provision provides what critics say is tantamount to an unconstitutional waiver for members of Congress and their staff from rules mandated by the Affordable Care Act, popularly known as Obamacare.

Doctor to McCain, "...Er, John...?   Donald Trump just took away that exemption, which gave you Platinum Obamacare and subsidized your premiums.   You need to get this radiation treatment cleared by your Obamacare provider, after you get insurance... like the rest of us Americans... sorry!"

I'm a bit of a stickler for this stuff because, we have a huge audience of readers, a following that not only depends on our ability to come to factual conclusions, dissect policy, or cut through the general BS, but having the ability to communicate intelligently and structure a sentence, punctuation, spelling, Hell, basic grammar plays a huge part in that credibility.

Am I asking too much for people to use a grammar check prog?
