Boehner: Obama’s request for authorization to arm the Syrian “moderates” is a sound one

I’m dying to know what this guy knows to make him think our quixotic project to essentially build an army in Syria from scratch is worth publicly endorsing. I can’t recall reading a single analysis lately that’s bullish about it; the best-case scenario seems to be that the “moderates” will end up being ineffective but not egregiously counterproductive. As it is, this authorization request seems like a naked attempt by O to get Republicans to sign on to the part of his strategy that’s most likely to backfire so that he can share blame later.

Happy to oblige, says the Speaker.

“I frankly think the president’s request is a sound one. I think there’s a lot more that we need to be doing, but there’s no reason for us not to do what the president asked us to do,” the Ohio Republican said.

[Bettyprob]

Of course he does.

pResident Obola won’t have to use an executive order for amnesty. Boner will be more than happy to do it for him.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Bayner once again shows the world what an idiot he is.

The old drunk needs to lay off the booze.

[mojito]

Is this drunken POS getting sodomized by Reggie too?

Cause he sure sounds like it.

[dforest]

There are no Syrian moderates. They are ISIS and we are being lied to.

[Ray76]

They KNOW that they are arming al Qaeda. They know it and don’t care.

With all due respect to Speaker John Boehner, exactly how do you identify one of these so-called “moderate Muslims”? There isn't anything in ISLAM that is “moderate” because it is written into their Koran to kill, convert, or enslave all Infidels. You, Boehner, are an Infidel according to their holiest book! Duh.

[ZULU]

Mr. Speaker, you’re getting that stuff on your nose again.

God forgive me. I hope he and McConnell LOSE!!

[VRWC For Truth]

Bonor is a worthless ‘Rat.

"What an ass-licking RINO fool this one is."

[Enlightened1]

The drunk Boehner is completely crazy and compromised.

The troops will get the Ebola and bring it back to the States.

[dalebert]

well idiot #2 has spoken.

[Ray76]

We must destroy the Uniparty or be destroyed by them.

[hal ogen]

boner is the most flaccid speaker of the house ever. What a creep and putz.

[WayneS]

No. It is not, Mr. Boehner.

[skeeter]

Of course. Obama's intentions on virtually every issue have been pure & presidential up to now, no lies, no petty animosity, no political gamesmanship... only the nation's best interests at heart doncha know.

Why should anyone question his motives now?

Drunken old fool, in how many more ways can you let this nation down?

[hosepipe]

Boehner and McConnell have financed ALL OF OBAMA's activities ON PURPOSE...
What Obama DOES is supported by those two.. "FINANCIALLY"..
Words mean nothing.. the buck STOPS at Boehners Desk..

Who's the enemy?.. Who is pulling the strings?..
Strings are being pulled..

Never trust a man obsessed with having a tan. There is something SERIOUSLY WRONG with that.
