The Washington Post also reported earlier that Speaker Boehner told reporters in a hallway a few minutes ago that he will oppose any effort to repeal the pension cuts to our retired military.

“Eases sharp budget cuts” == “increases spending more than it would have already increased”

Well, of course they did. Why, how could they not? Obama would take out his pen or phone and make them obsolete had they not done so.

Last night Mark Levin implied that Boehner is being blackmailed. “You connect the dots.”

It’s always a possibility in our NSA age.

News like this almost makes me want to tell the tea party folk in the senate and the house to go on strike......

And not show up for the State of the Union...

Instead they should hold a separate “State of the Police State Oligarchy Oppressive state”

Once again, the rino and liberal whachos unite to defeat conservatives and I am told by so many that conservatives must take back the rino party. I think that will never happen. I believe there must be a new conservative party set up and run only by conservatives and only for conservatives as this is the only logical solution left and should have been done over a decade ago.
Its a third party now or its business as usual in DC with liberals and rinos only.
