DMW's Congressional Rules of Order (Observed)
Submitted by detroitmechworks on Sat, 03/25/2017 - 12:13pmThere are a lot of ethical guidelines with regards to proper conduct in our highest levels of government. For the most part, these are formalities that allow the proper flow of business. However, there are some unwritten rules which are the highest authority within the hallowed halls of congress.
Therefore, I present to you, the ACTUAL rules of Order that our representatives observe, and obey with almost slavish devotion.

How to Become a Trillionaire
Submitted by Big Al on Sat, 03/25/2017 - 10:21am
Just wait a little longer. Maybe ten more years.

Trump's healthcare bill is going down in flames
Submitted by CS in AZ on Fri, 03/24/2017 - 2:27pmI just read that Paul Ryan went to the White House to tell President Grump they don't have the votes. Trump's long-promised "beautiful" alternative to repeal and replace the ACA is apparently DOA. I'm not surprised. Their promises were obviously lies and bluster all along. Still, it's enjoyable to see them fail so spectacularly.
The Hate Bus
Submitted by Robyn on Fri, 03/24/2017 - 2:13pm
They're calling it a "Free Speech Bus." By "they,' I mean The National Organization for Marriage, the International Organization for the Family, and a new hate group called CitizenGO. The latter is a Madrid-based organization with ties to the Church. The leading figure in all these organization is, of course, Brian S. Brown.
