Interesting. The headline is that Dems "lockout" the Republicans, which implies that the Republicans were not allowed to participate in a committee meeting. When you actually read the story, however, the Democrats changed the locks on the doors so that the only time Republicans could get in is when there were actual committee meetings being held. The Republicans are NOT being precluded from attending and partiicpating in ANY commitee meetings. What they are being prevented from doing is holding mock meetings, without a quorum, designed purely as party politiics to make movies about things they want to take up, but can't, because they are in the minority.

The headline is very misleading here, and it sadly appears that a large number of you have glossed over the actual facts.

Lets see! Lets say you and your spouse break up. Your spouse changes the locks on the door. Wouldn't your spouse have done that in order to KEEP YOU OUT!

who didn't read the story?

Towns’s staffers told Republicans they were not happy about the presence of the video camera in the hearing room when they were not present. Issa’s spokesman said the Democrats readily acknowledged to Republicans that they changed the locks in retaliation to the videotape of the Democrats’ absence from the business meeting even though committee rules allow meetings to be taped.

they got upset because the R's showed them not coming to a scheduled meeting. (and meeting separately).

They can meet all they want -- they just can't use the committee room as a commercial prop.

Read it again. In context this time, if you don't mind.

Sheesz.

Here's a hint: the Dems left the meeting altogether. There'd be no quorum. The meeting was o-v-e-r. The republicans then videotaped themselves biatching about it, then spliced it with some political stuff, and put it out.

The Dems have every right to be pissed that the Republicans would employ such a retarded ploy. And frankly, as much as you all claim to be fiscal conservatives, I am surprised that you are not also upset with the Republicans for using public space and monies as a set for a political commercial.

they didn't leave they just didn't show up and then used 2 different excuses why not. Then they were caught having a private mtg to avoid a vote they could have lost. Who's using the ploy?

and

committee rules allow meetings to be taped

Why would we be upset? It didn't come from FOX NEWS so we ignored it!

they went by the rules, and the dems didnt show up like they were suposed to for a business meeting. The dems showed they were irresponsible, and then showed they were childish by locking the doors, real class act :good!:
