House conservatives seek more power by changing rules. That could mean more chaos.

“The only way you’re going to bring people together here in the House is by changing the rules or at least following the current rules that we have,” Rep. Raúl R. Labrador (R-Idaho) said Friday.

The problem with that, other Republicans say, is that those demands would make the House even more ungovernable than it already is.

“Everyone tries regular order, and nobody succeeds at it,” said John Feehery, who served as an aide to former speaker J. Dennis Hastert of Illinois. “What will end up happening is that conservatives will lose, because they don’t have the votes.”

The most frequently invoked breaches of “regular order” include the spending bills that have kept the government open for the past four years. Those bills, often written in crisis, have rarely been subject to formal committee votes and have passed on the floor with a coalition of roughly 50 centrist Republicans plus most Democrats.

They are also being pimped as Moderate Republicans in the latest act of the national charade. Moderate, Centrist Whatever? A RINO by any other name is a Democrat. It's just another way of saying cross-partisanship, bi-partisanship, right wing of the left or smiley faced fascist pimps - or lapdogs. It's all RINO!

Wheah my puppy chow? I gotta chewey Boehner.

    "is that those demands would make the House even more ungovernable than it already is." The House is intended to represent the people, (though each Rep now (since 1913 law) responds to approx. 700,000 persons) but I don't see anything in the Constitution that says that the House should be governable except that they should adopt 'Rules of Order' to determine how debate is handled and how proposed bills should be moved to votes and how proposed amendments are handled on the floor. In fact, I think the House is better for us when they are ungovernable and inefficient.
