Stop the rhetoric now! Are you in grade school or something? John Boehner, pronounced Bay-ner, is a solid conservative with a 100% rating from the ACU. It is fair game if you say he isn't strong enough due to the bailout. I would propbably concede that point. But he is a decent man and a great Representative and we need to stop eating our own! If we don't, what decent person is going to run??? Trashing Boehner s idiocy! We have an unpopular Presdent & a lying press. You wanna kay blame? Look there.

Boner doesn’t have a 100% ACU rating, so stop lying.
In 2006, the year House Republicans ran wild under his “leadership” and then lost the majority, Boner had an ACU rating of 88%.

That makes him a moderate, not a conservative.
Is Boner a member of the Republican Study Committee (RSC), which is the conservative caucus in the House? No.

But this is about more than ideological leanings.
This is about the ability to LEAD.
And Boner has failed as a leader miserably.

No party leader who loses 20% of his caucus under his watch should be allowed to stay on as leader by party.
