John Boehner: Conservative Groups' Reaction to Budget Deal Is 'Ridiculous'
National Journal ^ | 12/11/2013 | Matt Berman

Posted on 12/11/2013 8:55:12 AM PST by Beave Meister

House Speaker John Boehner went off on outside conservative groups Wednesday morning for pushing against the new budget deal.

"They're using our members and they're using the American people for their own goals," he said. "This is ridiculous."

Several key conservative groups are against the sequester relief within the new budget deal.

"Though conservatives support more spending restraint, the discretionary spending limits defined in the Budget Control Act represent a promise to the American people to marginally slow the growth of government," reads a letter signed by the heads of Heritage Action, the Family Research Council, and the American Conservative Union. Heritage Action's Michael Needham penned an op-ed in USA Today on Tuesday calling the deal "a step backward."

If Boehner thinks this is a good deal then surely it gives the Democrats more than they demanded. That’s how Republicans compromise.

Both parties support the spending game. This is not going to end well.

Compromise – is defined as:

“A middle way between two extremes”

When Republicans "compromise," it is different. On a continuum of 1-10 with the Republicans at 1 and the Democrats at 10 the Republicans will compromise at -2 (that's minus 2) and then offer to throw in 10% more for the Democrats before the bill is actually passed.

Notice how Hillary is being referred to as a compromiser between the two extremes of the left and right.

“The Third Way” is Hillary’s campaign.

Communism on the left.

Capitalism on the right.

“The Third Way” is the great compromise in the middle of the two extremes.

It’s not state owned and controlled business, it’s not private owned business with no govt control.

It’s private owned business with govt control.

Crony capitalism = The Third Way = Nazism

At the moment I’m reading this. A local talk show host,8:30 to noon weekday WTMJ’s Charlie Sykes am 620 is banging away at how the media drove the shutdown as a loss for the Republicans into everyday conversation. Calling it a “crap sandwich” but needed. And that was the reason this limp wristed “bi-partisan” budget settlement is being offered.

The reason is the GOPES (gop elite snobs)running the responses during that time hammering away at Cruz and Lee. Are now claiming “we” don’t want a “ shutdown” and this to be the issue for the 2014 congressional house and senate races. Because of the Mendacious Streaming Media will blaming the Republicans again.

During that time does anybody remember what go six pack your friends and neighbors were talking about during that time ? Was it about this “shutdown”. Or was it about Zerocare ?

"Establishment Republicans" (READ RINOs) are our worst enemy. The need to be replaced ASAP, even if we have to replace them with Demons, and THEN replace the Demon with a conservative.
Our future is TED CRUZ !!!

We must surely be advancing, for all the ear piercing squealing going on by the two R-establishment leaders in both houses of congress. The Dems will be propping these establishment cronies up, as their power playing becomes increasingly threatened.

STOCKMAN FOR SENATE

He probably doesn’t even know where it is. He’s long past that kind of thing now.

Isn't that what an electorate is supposed to do?

“That should be “The Turd Way” .”

Ain’t that the truth.

People keep repeating the left’s big lie that the left is trying to take us to Marxism and they aren’t.

The left is taking us to Nazism.

A holocaust survivor told me in late 1993 or early in 1994 that psycho skank Hillary was a Nazi and not a commie as everyone believed.

I expect this from Boehner. I am bothered that Paul Ryan has caved in and “compromised”.

What did the conservatives get for compromising their principles? Big fat zero.

I think the correct term is "FABIAN FASCISTS".

Read these three articles on one of my earlier post:
Now go back and read The Communist Takeover Of America - 45 Declared Goals.

Are you getting the depth of this Fabian Society takeover?
It's deep, it's ugly, and most people WILL NOT ... CAN NOT ... accept the truth.

You've got to watch this 9 minute 38 second video. The ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF, HUSSEIN OF AMERICA, is doing this exact plan to US right now.
Obama is EVIL, pure and simple.


Please watch Glenn Beck with Trevor Loudon & his book "Barack Obama and the Enemies Within".
Then watch the 29 minute 13 seconds video Trevor Loudon- An Urgent (and chilling) Message for America.



Barack Obama and the Enemies Within


Obama may be feigning "incompetence," thinking he's too sly, being a "wolf in sheep's clothing" since his mentoring was from Fabian Fascism..
