2. So it turns that Ryan (and therefore Boehner) has been negotiating this for months. Yet it is sprung on us with only two days left for the House to pass it, and send it to the Senate where it will be passed unamended along party lines with McConnell and his ilk casting completely meaningless votes against it. Yet Boehner has the audacity to criticize those who have criticized the bill without reading it, as if he had intended that there be any time to read it. What a fraud - he needs to go, and Ryan and Cantor along with him.
I can understand (if not agree with) the GOP-e desire to let O-care work its black magic on Dem popularity without a huge budget fight. But why TWO years instead of one?
Boehner is spewing poll tested talking points here. They are all over the MSM today.
The GOP leadership are telling us they can’t do anything until 2016. So why then should conservatives vote for them in 2014?
How does that differ from you and your crony fascists “using our members and using the American people for your own goals,” Mr. Boner?
Their own goals? What are "their own goals", John? Might they be a reduction in deficits, smaller government, less restrictive regulation, repeal of Obamacare, a new tax system, more state power and a strict adherence to the Constitution? The real question for you, John, is, what are your goals?
We ARE the American people Mr. Bonehead!
There is something psycho about the republican leadership, that they would fight conservatives and dismiss concerns about fiscal responsibility.
Even if you want to make a deal that screws conservatives somewhat, why would you openly go to war with the majority of the party, and arguably the majority of the country???
IF conservatives are not your base, who are? Pro Amnesty big spending liberals? I don’t think so.
“You mean the groups that came out and opposed it before they ever saw it?”
And why didn’t they have a chance to see it before it was passed, Nancy?
The title is correct, less the “back”.
We will remember in November 2014.
Yeah, this is going to be the bonehead two step...step one get this ridicules budget agreement passed. Step two sneak through an immigration amnesty bill probably just before the next recess.
We don’t have recess appointments, we have recess disappointments from this bunch.
You mean the groups that came out and opposed it before they ever saw it?”
“Yes, those groups,” the reporter replied - absolutely delighted with the exaggerated response.
FU Boehner. It’s crap. It’s status quo. This is NOT why we put you in charge in 2010. Quit whining about what is “politcally possible” and just CUT, CUT, CUT! Real cuts, not fake cuts.
Lay out the waste, prove all this spending is not needed. Quit hiding under the bed when a Dem accuses you of “starving a child”. Fight back. Call them the liars that they are. Quit pretending you can rationally discuss anything with a lying, POS Dem.
Cowards.
Well, I did tell them to “bite me.”
