Boehner didn't resign for the party's sake.
Boehner didn't take one for the team..
Boehner was initially going to retire at the end of 2014 but THEN STAYED IN OFFICE JUST SO HE COULD MEET THE POPE THEN TO RESIGN THE NEXT DAY!!
Probably figured he needed to get some forgiveness from the Pope for what a horrible dunce he’s been all these years.
I heard...that the pope made him a better offer....but thats all I can say...
How do you figure this? Do you have a linky?
Also note: Boehner is the one who invited the Pope to come to America in the first place, so he delayed his retirement for 9 months just to meet the Pope.
Would that McConnell do the right thing and follow suit.
It’s obvious now, isn’t it? He was supposed to retire at the end of 2014. He meets the Pope then resigns the very next day! It’s obvious.
how do you know this?
...keep the cannoli.
I was hoping the same thing the minute I heard this news. McConnell resigning would be far more beneficial than Boehner resigning. The problem is in the SENATE!!!
1+1=2
I decided (hic) to wait until I could (hic) meet the Pope (hic) and then resign. (burp)
I had a cousin who expressed his pride that he’d been invited to the White House. He wondered why I wasn’t upbeat about the news.
“Yeah, but it’s Clinton,” I said.
“Still, it’s the White House. It’s the President.”
“Yeah, but it had to be *this* president.”
I’d feel the same way about an audience with *this* pope.
Did the Pope or his people know in 2014 when or if he was coming to US? I know Bohner invited him, but that was because of obama and the agenda of global warming and illegals oh and evil capitalism. IMO
Either that or he resigned now to give himself some time to get away from the consequences of what he wrought.
How do you figure this? Do you have a linky?

No, BUT HE MADE HIS POINTS IN ALL CAPS.
That’s gotta count for something, right?
Sad thing, no matter good or bad,they all leave wealthy ay our expense..
DON'T LET THE SIZE OF A FONT OVERSHADOW THE CONTENT OF WHAT IS SAID!!!!
In his televised announcement at around 1:10 this afternoon, Boehner called him “Pope Prancis”.
Still drinking on the job, I guess because Boehner likes the whiskey voice it gives him.
