Bush ran against Ronald Reagan in 1980, and yet Reagan seemed magnanimous enough to pick him as his running mate.

(In full disclosure, I also heard that the CFR demanded Reagan pick Bush for his running mate, or they wouldn’t support him.)

There are rules.

At the least, Dear Mr. Boehner, start worrying about the treacherousness of Democrats before worrying about it from Republicans. The opponents didn’t vote for Nancy; they voted for a different Republican. A sensible response would be “I hear you.”

Yeah, but look at what the catastrophic consequences of having a CIA lifer in that position have been for the country! Bush (CIA DCI), Clinton (CIA asset), Bush II (CIA DCI son), Obama (who knows where his controllers are from?). (BTW, I understand that Bush Sr. had a cover career, but dig around a little.)

And who is running this year, hmm??

Reagan was not always the best policy maven in Washington, but he had a way of striving to pour oil on troubled Republican waters.

For such wonderful CIA representation, America sure did a lousy job of knowing anything in advance about 9/11.

The FIRST thing they should do is make these Speaker elections by secret ballot. Its CRAZY to get slapped for your vote.

Mike Reagan was present when his father decided to pick Bush, and he says that story is pure baloney.

You’re twisting everything.

There’s no moral responsibility to accept consequences when the consequences emanate from corruption.

who is Devin Nunes and how do we kick him out of the country?

Incredibly, he was until recently considered a conservative and even wrote a book, Restoring the Republic, published by the conservative outfit World Net Daily in 2010. Since he's apparently turning into another Charlie Crist, he will have to be "primaried" in the next election.

Funny your example, CEO of a company. That implies private ownership and private privilege.

How did Boehner become CEO in this sense of the people’s house? It isn’t any better than the Obama he has whined about abusing his privilege (well Obama has abused his privilege, but Boehner should be trying to do more than just whine).

The classy thing for Mr. Cheeto would be to say, not just to the House rebels, but the American people at large, “I hear you and here’s how we are going to try to do things differently.” Not “You just crossed Guido! Watch out for horse heads in your beds.”

“We’re going to have a family conversation,” Boehner said at a Wednesday press conference.

Got a call today from NRA wanting money...

They started by asking my opinion of which was more feared:

1. Barack Obama’s amnesty actions

2. Hillary Clinton getting into the white house.

I responded by saying “Republicans in congress who will do nothing to stand up to an unconstitutional president!

If republicans cannot un-seat a sell-out traitor RINO leader like Boehner, our goose is cooked... and it doesn’t matter who is in the white house.

I then asked “What in the hell does Obama have to do to get impeached???”

Republicans can impeach Clinton for Oral-Office favors, but they cannot impeach Obama for subverting the law???

What happens to this country is not Obama’s fault... its ours... and Boehner is leading the charge into collapse while our representatives plead with him not to punish them for dissenting????

Give me a break!

A basic political principle is not to defecate in one’s own nest. Another is just because you can doesn’t mean that you should. Boehner is going to need the votes and support of the guys he’s crapping on. Yes, he can, but that doesn’t mean it’s a good idea.
