Let me help you understand WHY everyone's so down on Boehner.
1. Do you admire "men" who actually weep over politics in public instead of fighting the bastards he was elected to fight? If so, Boehner's that (sort of) "man."
2. Do you care about the babies and want to stop the slaughter? Boehner does not care. The babies don't cough up cash to "leadership."
3. Do you think gun ownership under the Second Amendment is a major priority for the GOP and our government? Boehner could not care less. Again, most gun guys don't create Super PACs to fund Boehner and $$$ is all that counts.
4. Is marriage an institution of one MAN and one WOMAN per marriage? What evidence is there that this is a Boehner priority? Don't you really think that Boehner would not care if folks want to marry space aliens or engage in twelvesomes or "marry" their household pets so long as the campaign contributions are fat enough from the perverts.
5. Do you think that the overriding be-all and end-all issue of American society in our time is preserving the tax privileges of the upper class even at the expense of causing ruinous tax increases on Americans of ordinary and modest means? Boehner does. As Willie Sutton used to say as an excuse for robbing banks, "That's where the MONEY is."
6. Do you think that veteran conservative (i.e., unlike Weepy John Boehner) GOP Congressmen should be purged by primaries arranged from Washington by out of state corrupt financing as a punishment for publicly requesting of Boehner that he call Congress into session last December for the sole purpose of enacting a resolution vowing no more debt limit increases to serve Obozo's agenda???? That is what Boehner, Cantor and McCarthy arranged to defeat my Congressman Don Manzullo and replacing him with a whore like Adam Kinzinger in an uber-GOP district. Kinzinger's qualification??? Kinzinger is a knee-jerk lap dog for the $$$$ obsessed brainless windtunnel totally unprincipled "leaders" in the House. Boehner thinks that if there are 236 GOP Congresscritters they should all be lock-step Boehner surrender-alikes.
7. Now, Boehner just can't wait to pucker up to go on autosmooch for Obozo's backside in service to the same corrupt interests that provide both sides with megabucks to screw over the general public. For Boehner, the purpose of this exercise is $$$ and only $$$ and to "party on!"
Those are just a few reasons why so many are totally fed up with the sorry excuses for "leadership" that infest the upper reaches of the House GOP.
Plenty more available on request!
Dump Boehner and Cantor and McCarthy and replace with actual conservatives who give a damn about all of those issues that are not related to further spoiling of the $$$$ privileged.
Oh for Christsake are you that dimwitted to produce a document that simply spouts what looks like your opinions without any shred of legislative proof.
Look at that crap: just take number one:
“1. Do you admire “men” who actually weep over politics in public instead of fighting the bastards he was elected to fight? If so, Boehner’s that (sort of) “man.””
This is all your opinion... Do you sit in his meetings ? Do know for a fact that he’s not fighting ? Did he weep over politics ?
WHAT the heck is wrong with you - or better where are you from - some back room democratic blog room ?
Listen go market your trash to the poor unfortunates with Obamaphones that buy the crap your peddling and buy this crap as fact.
If your interested in an actual conversation about the issues then get serious!
Spot-on, BE. Precisely right. GOP “leadership” seems to be permeated with those that want nothing more to stay in Washington to attend the cocktail party circuit.
As Rush says, our guys do not understand they run the House and are the Majority. Seems to be a hold-over from 40 years in the wilderness. They act more like Minority Leaders or Minority Whips than Speaker.
Your #5 makes you sound like an “Occupy” moron. Other than that, good post.
How about someone competent who knows how to win. Bohner should have been dumped years ago, but now is better than never.
Why is Boehner in front of the camera saying anything now anyway? What is the purpose? He should let O have the stage now.
If he says anything it should be “I implore the president not to raise taxes. It will kill jobs and hurt Americans. Please MR President use your victory to do good for Americans not lose their jobs.”... then let all the taxes go up.
Don't say :”We will not..we will...bla-bla-bla”
Let the voters think Obama was voted King.
He knows economics better than anyone in the House.
