John Boehner’s job is thankless, because John Boehner is so bad at it.

He is worse than useless, he is useful to the opposition.

There is but one way to beat Obamacare at this point and that is to not fund it.

While they are at it there are a lot of foreign aid funds they could stop also.

I believe Boehner has already announced he will not seek the Speakership again. Nothing worse than a politician that has nothing to lose. He’s going to fold like a Wal-Mart suit on this...

Seems the Democrats become more conservative and Republicans become more liberal when they have nothing to lose. I think that is what we are seeing with McCain now. He’s never going to be President and no longer playing party politics. He’s just being his natural liberal self. Mask is off.

It is ironic the source of this piece is titled "Political Realities." The political reality is that the Democrats hold the Senate and the White House. Anyone who tells you there is a political road to "de-funding" ObamaCare in the next few weeks is lying to you. There is NO WAY that is going to occur. There are not enough Senate votes to pass that, and certainly not 67 votes to override Obama's veto EVEN if it did pass. Memo to the Sean Hannities and Rand Paul's of the world: Stop lying about this.....it WILL NOT happen.

The majority of the GOP Congressional delegation is really to blame for voting this traitor as their leader.

Boehner really, really needs to step aside.

America is currently on autopilot.

The libs are (badly) mis-managing the country, but our side has thrown responsibility out, and seem to have sold out.

US Businesses have a primary job: BE AMERICAN.

Make a great profit, and work to build up a strong free world (see any sign of that, in the last 10 years?) but really and first, BE AMERICAN.

Every other nation in the world, is busy becoming stronger, and hiring their own people.

America is alone, running toward the back of the pack.

Sending US businesses overseas, and hiring foreigners.

STOP IT.

Hire Americans. In America.

Build up American businesses, and start looking out for Americans for once.

We have sent far too much American businesses out of America.

Bring them back.

Au contraire, SkyPilot.

ObummerCare, nor any other program, can be funded without the HOR voting to fund it. Don’t spread the Dhimm lies,

To paraphrase Dean Wormer in Animal House:

Obama’s interest in an un-provoked US Military invasion of non-enemy Syria has nothing to do with Syria, poison gas, or “the children.”

Obama’s interest in bombing non-enemy Syria has everything to do with creating a long-lasting, controversial, DISTRACTION for Congress in order to keep Congress from defunding Obama”care”/Boehnerkare.

Obama’s “Red Herring” for the 9-11 Benghazi Massacre Coverup was Susan Rice’s phony TV Video story.

Obama’s “Red Herring” for distracting Congress until Obama”care”/ Boehnerkare kicks in October 1 was Obama’s “Crossing HIS personal Red Line” distraction speech LAST YEAR.

Con-artist Obama speaks only for Obama, not the US Military, US Federal Government Foreign Policy or America.

Obama has isolated himself, and has primed himself for Impeachment.

IMPEACH OBAMA !

REMEMBER BENGHAZI !

My only problem with your post is that we have too many Americans who do not want to work.

Why should anyone work for $7.50 an hour when the Government pays them $11.00 not to work.

First we need to give the Americans here some incentive to work, and that incentive is to cut the entitlements, or at least limit them.

Certainly no one is hard hearted enough to want to see anyone hungry or on the street, but we also are tiring of keeping them off the street by taking their responsibility to work away from them with subsidies.

What the hell is wrong with OH?

I live here now. Great house bargain, nice neighborhood, seems removed from the natural and man-made disasters so many other places face.

Politically it's nuts. A democrat is someone who either lives on benefits or wants a high-paying union job. A Republican is someone who wants lots of government contracts to make them wealthy. Everybody will vote for more taxes for the zoo, library, and community college (etc)rather than pay for themselves when they use stuff.

There are a lot of rational people, sure. They don't control the political parties.

JMHO

I think we need to bring back American jobs.

Now.

China’s unemployment rate, is (much) better than ours is now.

Our problem isn’t people who do not want to work.

Our problem is, jobs have been offshored.

Bring US jobs back to America.
