NS House of Cards - Character RP [OOC/Open/NEW]

[Valentir]

I truly don't see why their would be any opposition to such a measure by the republican leadership.

Michele Bachmann doesn't like gays, this is well known. If the Same-Sex Marriage Bill passes then she will throw a fit and become the Queen of Rage again.

[Lykens]

Because the NRA has a lot of cash that they could spend on campaigning?

I'm talking about the gun bill.

Even then many in the NRA have voiced that they do support stricter background checks in the past. I don't see why if the NRA goes with it the republicans won't.

You'll have to worry about your Queer of a Husband once the bill passes the House.

"Homophobe Michelle Bachmann is married to a gay man? More at eleven!"

Muh Second Amendment rights!

Also, NRA funding and NRA leadership.

I'm sure once we dig up dirt on certain people, the media is going to see a lot of that.

Yay mainstream media.

You have no proof!

But like I said many in the NRA have supported similar measures in the past which are proposed in the bill.

Oh, that reminds me, you need to leak that story that Representative Andrews leaves his husband with their daughter(s?) to go carousing in gay bars at night, sleeping with strange men.

Along with a picture of him at a bar while his husband is in the bathroom or something.

Does that matter? Say gun control and everyone hates it. Or so it seems.

Blame Wayne La Pierre. He makes some good points in some cases but most of the time he's a little too crazy

It will smell of bias. MSNBC is shit.

That's a bridge you don't want to cross, for Congressman Andrews sees plenty of closeted Republicans there and keeps his mouth shut out of respect for them, because at the end of the day outing people isn't cool yo.

Open that door, and there goes a good number of senior, and junior, Republicans.

Heh.

Of course, if those certain individuals were kind enough to vote with us, I'm sure we could keep said information under wraps.

It won't be leaked if rumors about Bachmann's husband aren't leaked.

Additionally, given your tendency to post everything on Instagram, it wouldn't be too hard to put up a honeypot either. Or at least enough to spread even filthier rumors about infidelity and affairs -- and ones that would be leaked to tabloids first (then picked up by newspapers) -- leaving no evidence of Republican intervention.

The Republicans would just shrug and say "what? He cheated? Sorry to hear about that" and take the upper ground, while accusations of homosexuality would be dismissed as feces-flinging.

I probably found that a lot funnier than I should have.

Anywho, it all boils down to who's satellite news outlet is able to break the news faster.

I'm sorry, you're comparing the overwhelming market saturation of Fox News to MSNBC? Really?

I'm sure CNN can be given an extremely biased independent report to break.

I'm sure that's the plan.

Or we could go back to the tense standoff where there isn't any leaking to the news about anyone, including Michelle Bachmann's husband.

I mean, you could go for finances or something else instead, but you have to go after sexuality, and bring all this down on everyone? I mean, dang.

MOAR IC POSTING.

[The Kingdom of Glitter]

His Instagram mainly consists of his meals, his Starbucks, his husband and kids, and celebrities he meets, also the Capitol Building that's on there a lot. Basically, go look at a teenage white girls Instagram.

You also do need to consider that Congressman Andrews is a nobody on the grand scheme of things, from a really irrelevant district full of old people and homosexuals (thanks Provincetown) of which he is pro-elderly and fights like hell for them and we don't even need to discuss the pro-gay part. He sits on one committee for education which again isn't super important. The ones you want to target with scandals are the Democratic Senators you know are weak and don't want to toe the party line. They're the ones you can pressure into killing the bill, as it won't be stopped in the House unless a third of the Democrats magically disappear.

You go after the vulnerable Democrats in the House of Congress that can actually stop the bill, not the more so solid ones that are in the House of Congress that can pass the bill without much effort. At least, that's what I'd do.

You know what else I realized. We can do what the Republicans did with the power of the purse, sans the shutdown. You better tread carefully. <- Totally not a threat.

Don't worry. Blackburn is on some pretty important committees, and the most important are the rules and appropriations.

Although his alcoholism would probably put his election campaign in jeopardy. The seventeenth is very democratic, so he should be as safe as Pelosi is in San Fran.

You literally drank and dropped the flask in front of a House Republican, did you not?

The Republicans will (hopefully) know.

But Gliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit, it's no fuuuuuuuuuuun without feces-flinging and tense political standoffs.

[The Kingdom of Glitter]

It comes from a Republican at a meeting about passing same-sex marriage legislation.

I don't know how popular he'd be within his own party if he reveals he was at that meeting.

Of course it isn't, but you gotta target the big names. That's why I have the small name in the House and the big name (and person) in the Senate.
