You've got to be a complete fool to have any faith left in Washington.
“True. Reid has utterly destroyed HIS ability to ever do back room deals with repubs. Smooth move, because he does a ton of them.”
McCain and Graham will gladly do deals with Reid no matter what.
Good tag line and it is the truth. We are hanging ourselves with the rope we made. America could never fall from a frontal assault. Our only vulnerability was the enemies within and their ability to persuade the weak and stupid.
The left has to keep their Holy Grail, Socialized Medicine. This is a hill they are willing to die on. The least we can do is help them along. Burning back-channels is a pretty desperate move, we need to just take a deep breath and see what develops, we could be in for a muted pleasant surprise.
As to Bone’yer and his crew, who is surprised and who cares? Time to sharpen the pitchforks for 2014.
Not really a big deal. Boehner has already said he plans to retire as Speaker after next year’s election.
Then if Boehner was simply ethically following his philosophy, why the need to conceal his meetings with Obama and Reid with a dishonest cover story?
Boehner is no better than a rat on a sinking ship,, knocking someone weaker down to get himself into a lifeboat,,,
I can proudly say my Rep, Louie Gohmert has stated he will not accept any carve-out. Still waiting on the others.
He has to negotiate against himself first. Then comes the caving and the crying.
boehner also said that “CUT, CAP AND BALANCE IS THE ONLY PLAN ON THE TABLE”. He was negotiating with obama, reid and piglosi behind closed doors.
Stephen Palazzo also stated that as well. Louie is great!
It doesn’t surprise me at all. Both parties want to insulate their staffs from Obamacare. It is the reason why the Reps accepted Obama’s ruling on an issue he had no authority to do so. Both parties are corrupt.
Republicans said the leaked emails completely mischaracterize the speaker’s actions.
“As democracy is perfected, the office of the President represents,
more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great
and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s
desire at last and the White House will be occupied by a downright
fool and complete narcissistic moron.”

Not a nice way to treat his fellow Kabuki actor . . .
I didn’t read all the comments, so maybe this was already mentioned. Are we sure the emails are legit? Faking emails wouldn’t surprise me.
There will come a time when every republican who did not or could not stand with Ted will be completely unwelcome by the GOP
GOOD! Maybe more to come.
Thank you so much, musicman!
That one is perfect for this thread.
I’ve read every comment!
Will wait to see how this shakes out. But as I understand this they are not boehners emails but his Chief of Staff. Beck read them and they could be interpreted several ways, a few words changed here and there and you have a completely different nuance. Reid is pond scum and this is as dirty as it gets. Remember the accusation from Reid against Romney and his tax information? Never saw it did we?
