Well, I’m glad someone is standing up to her royal majesty and not giving up without a fight:

House Republicans will be back on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives again Monday to continue the unprecedented protest that began last Friday, when dozens of Republicans joined hundreds of American citizens on the House floor to protest Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) decision to send Congress home for the rest of the summer without a vote on legislation to lower gas prices and move America toward energy independence.

They decided to continue protesting because they were encouraged by Obama’s move toward drilling:

GOP members say they would not be holding this debate tomorrow, if the Democratic nominee had not modified his position on off shore drilling.
They believe that with Obama and his Republican opponent John McCain, appearing to be in “agreement” about off shore drilling, then Speaker Nancy Pelosi should recall the Congress from recess, and put an energy bill on the floor in August.

Uh-oh! They’ve given Obama an opening for a bipartisan campaign ad there: “Obama lead the way to a bipartisan solution to energy independence by forcing Congress to vote on the issue.” 🙂
