“He looks like someone who’s just made a deal with the devil.”
Huh .... I wonder why.
” His conscience will never be clear, ...”
Why do you say that? HE DIDNT RE-ELECT OBAMA. 60 million Americans did. they are the ones responsible for this mess.
If more voters voted Republicans, we’d have a Republican budget. As it is, Mourdock losing, Akin losing, Tester winning ...Anyone who didnt vote Republican voted for higher taxes and more spending.
Hey presto, it’s amazing - that is what we are going to get.
And this too:
Ya know, when we said that re-electing Obama would be a disaster, we meant it, and Boehner is not omnipotent and cant fix that particular fact. He, like us, has to live with it. I’d get drunk too if I were in his shoes!
When I said “His conscience will never be clear...” I meant that it will never be clear after making that deal with the devil, just like anyone who’s ever made a deal with the devil regrets it later. But I would bet the quid pro quo struck with Obama is enough to ensure him some level of comfort, be it material or financial.
I want to believe in the innate goodness of men, and I don’t believe Boehner was always ill-intentioned. I believe the corruption of DC is such that only the purest of heart and soul can resist the temptations there. Washington, D.C. is a modern-day Gomorrah.
