Liberal media outlets are trying to smear the highest-ranking Republican in the House just weeks before the midterm elections with a deal-breaking scandal before he has a chance to take the speaker's chair from Nancy Pelosi.

A blogger from liberal Web site The Daily Kos pierced through Boehner's security detail at yesterday's unveiling of his leadership policy "Pledge to America" to ask if he was sleeping with a lobbyist from the Printing Industries of America.

I don't know where you get your information, but he has not been silent in the face of the "The Usurper's Commie assault upon Our Republic."

As a Congressman, he as no say about nominees to the Supreme Court.

And since he's my Congressman, I see him and hear him on the local media, screaming about the "unlawful power grabs of this administration."

I also see him on Fox, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, and NBC doing the same.

Not a leader! The Repubicans in the House have almost voted in lock step against the Stimulus, ObamaCare, and Cap and Trade. That is leadership.

Our leftist opponents have no scruples. But then, we knew that.

[Sudetenland]

Right! Boehner was really wishy-washy in managing the get the entire Republican caucus to UNANIMOUSLY oppose the health care reform bill.

And he was virtually absent from the Cap and Trade Bill's DEFEAT that was opposed UNANIMOUSLY.

People like you would be attacking Reagan as a RINO. /rolleyes

Boehner has been a very strong conservative voice in the House.

Big deal. My husband has the same mistress. Her name is GOLF!

Hey 3 out of 4 ain’t bad. I would hit Spitzer’s wife before the crack whore he ended up with. She maybe “dowdy” but she’s a good looking woman, can’t take that away from her.

“Big deal. My husband has the same mistress. Her name is GOLF!”

If he plays like most people he probably should save his money and keep his putter at home. Golf is an expensive mistress and with carts you don’t get as much exercise as you would if you stayed home.

“I have no reason to try and defend John Boehner because he has not defended Conservative effectiveness or principles.”

WE need to quit the foolhardy arm-chair general critiques of good conservative Republican leaders, right when they are in the middle of fighting the uphill battle of taking on Pelosi and Obama.

The Teddy Roosevelt ‘in the arena’ quote is apt here.

He got slimed by a leftist blogger for standing up for what you believe in.

Worth repeating.

I have no reason to try and defend John Boehner because he has not defended Conservative effectiveness or principles. He is a RINO, and therefore of absolutely no use as a representative.

You don't wish to defend Boehner against false claims. Even if they falsely accused 0bama of having a mistress, he would deserve to be defended because for conservatives, the most important virtue should be the truth.

If you are willing to stand by and watch someone who agrees with you 95% of the time go down to false charges, who ARE you willing to defend?

[J Edgar]

Points taken and acknowledged, but I still don’t trust John Boehner. It’s just that simple.

At a critical future moment, he will falter and severely disappoint, says I!

You don’t come across as a serious person.
