I do give him credit for, so far, starting and sustaining the fight...
But the fight is based on public perception, and the media and democrats (same thing, actually) are DESPERATE to prove the mean ole Republicans want to starve babies and kill old people (or the other way around, I can never get that talking point straight!), and Boehner’s job is to look REASONABLE. So any crevasse or crack where the GOP looks unreasonable the media will exploit like the Colorado river carving out the Grand Canyon...
The stick in the media/dems/Obama’s eye is the huge debacle known as Obamacare that the Republicans are fighting them over, and the slowly snowballing perception of the public that it is indeed a debacle, and those that told them otherwise were the liars, not the TEA party.
There just may be a political transformation going on now (from the sheeple perspective), and Boehner’s job is to smile and look reasonable. As A RINO, it must KILL him not to cave (at least so far). Bu this time, let's encourage him to continue on the path he has taken...
I was TOTALLY behind Boehner until he REPEATED “CONVERSATION” a THOUSAND times!!! OMG!!! It must have POLLED well to stupid women!!
I soooo agree with you (therfoee, we are right, ha).
Boehner did great.HE has to communicate to the average viewer...NOT US! And he did a strong job with that. Its time to support him when he DOES well. boehner is not Cruz, we need to get over that and keep ushing Boehner to do as good as he can .
