This morning in Boehner’s press conference, he was asked if Republicans will take the blame for perpetuating the illegal immigration problem if they don’t approve the president’s request for billions in additional funding. His response was forceful:
REPORTER: Do you agree with Senator Lindsey Graham who said yesterday if Republicans do not go ahead and approve this funding you’re going to get blamed for perpetuating the problem? Do you think you have to approve this funding?
BOEHNER: Listen, this is a problem of the presidents own making. He’s been president for five and a half years. When is he going to take responsibility for something?
About time he tells it like it is.
and on goes the circle jerk of DC corruption to extort more money from the taxpayer. They must believe the broker we are the safer they’ll be.
Public school starts a whole lot sooner than Labor Day for some districts in Texas - some as early as 6 weeks from now.
When is Boner going to take responsibility for holding Bammy,s feet to the fire?
You’re not a failure until you start blaming others for your mistakes.
Well, isn't he potentially getting a committee together to investigate the possiblity of a lawsuit? Sheesh, whaddya want?
When the GOP gets off its ass and takes action. Words are worthless.
Could be he feels a Cantorization in his near future.
Ketel One anyway.
Obama and his gang know they are facing a bunch of weak sisters in the GOP. They must laugh themselves to sleep every night knowing that this drunken idiot is leading the charge.
Well, ol’ Gutless John might start by not just tearing into the Dear Leader, but by tearing into the pack of lickspittles protecting him. He might bother to point out the lies and ever-changing positions that have been trotted out, and received with adoration and slobbering devotion by the worthless media sycophants crowding the room with him. He might even think to have his own cameras and recording persons in there so that he can put out what was said unedited and un-arranged, so that the Media Lickspittles can’t edit and arrange his words in an unflattering manner.
Further, he might announce separate Committees with subpoena power to investigate the IRS, Fast & Furious, and the current Border Scandal, and further, announce that the House will be imprisoning Lois Lerner and beginning impeachment proceedings on John Koskinen for Obstruction of Congress.
In short, he might start to fight. Up to now, he’s been either doing nothing or actually aiding the Dear Leader. Leadership consists of LEADING, and so far, the Speaker is flaccid and listless. The reason Gutless John is not regarded well is that he is hated by the rats simply for breathing (as they hate any Republican), and reviled by his own base as a worthless surrender monkey. Except, that is, when fighting said base over things like Amnesty...
At least by fighting he might gain some small amount of respect by someone. The rats will not hate him more, as it is not possible, and he might win over his base. But, alas, he isn’t known as Gutless John for nothing...
The Constitution empowers you to bypass the POTUS when he fails his oath of office
and you are a miserable failure and LIAR! You know this and refuse to do a damn thing about it!
But how can you do anything about it when you are also criminally negligent
in your duty. You took the same oath of office!! DAMN YOU F_KN GOP TRAITORS!
READ THE CONSTITUTION PEOPLE! When the leaders fail us it's our duty to take matters
into our own hands to protect our nation! But maybe we're a nation of pussies now and deserve it.
When he throws you(Bohner) and the rest of his enemies in jail and crowns himself King , then he’ll say , “I did That”
So Speaker Boehner...
When are you going to HOLD him responsible?
IMHO, it was also coordinated with tax-funded religious “charities.”

Afterward, Obama and Perry attended a meeting on the border crisis that included Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins, Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings, Dallas County Commissioner Elba Garcia, Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson of Dallas, Grand Prairie Mayor Ron Jensen, Chris Liebrum of the Baptist General Convention, Arne Nelson of Catholic Charities, Texas Health and Human Services Director Kyle Janek and Texas Public Safety Director Steven McCraw.

Catholic Bishops’ report months ago: we lobby for ‘unaccompanied minors’
Posted by Ann Corcoran on July 4, 2014
Kevin Appleby, USCCB lobbyist and author of the 2013 report predicting the invasion from Central America. Did the Bishops mission” help make it happen?
Last night when I wrote about Laura Ingraham’s tweet, here, about the fact that the US Conference of Catholic Bishops Migration and Refugee Services program is 98% funded by you (the taxpayer), I should have linked this post that I wrote back in February.
See the whole thing but note what the Bishops said in their November 2013 Report on their “mission” to Central America:
At the national level, the USCCB department of Migration and Refugee Services lobbies to improve options and services for undocumented minors, and oversees a country-wide network of mostly Church-affiliated agencies that administer foster care programs.

Catholic Bishops milk taxpayers while pushing amnesty! Are the big guns in conservative talk-radio starting to get it?

Tonight fellow blogger Richard Falknor alerted me to this tweet at Laura Ingraham’s twitter feed:

Context for Catholic Bishops’ Amnesty Support: “Fed grants make up 93% of USCCB’s migration/refugee budget http://shar.es/MFEZp “
The link sends followers to a story about how much the US Catholic Bishops receive from the US taxpayer citing their 2011 annual report.
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Migration and Refugee Services has published its 2011 annual report.
According to the report, over 92.5% of Migration and Refugee Services’ $72.1 million budget came from federal grants and contracts, while under $25,000 came from private donations.

I agree that he’s not doing a great job, but I think one of the problems is not malevolence on the side of people like Boehner, but the same thing that brought down GWB: They believed that the Dems were playing by the rules.
Bush realized by the end of his term that they weren’t, but it was too late. Once Obama got elected, the establishment GOP was terrified of him because, after all, he was part-black and therefore the press would call them racists if they opposed him.
And they’re still scared because they are afraid of being on the end of a press/Dem hate fest. That’s just how they are. A lot of them have been in office for way too long and come from a different political generation.
We need more brave, bold people to come in and stir things up, but we seem to be incapable of electing any. Not only because of obvious fraud like Cochran (and I still hope McDaniel prosecutes him and overturns the election), but because there is so much GOP infighting that we can never get behind a candidate.
In the meantime, though, I’ll take anything I can get. Criticize Boehner when he’s wrong or weak, but support him when he’s right. Think carrot and stick. I can tell you, as a horse owner, that no equine has ever moved only for the stick. They’ll drop in their tracks first. But give them a bit of praise and a sugar lump (with a veiled threat to swat them otherwise, and they’re yours.
Dude, Boehner! YOU pretty much told him he doesn’t have to when you said you won’t impeach! That and just letting him do whatever he wants forthis long.
In other words, Johnny-boy, you are about as useful as a wet paper bag.
Too many of us on FR do not take into account the environment the Republicans have to operate in. The leftists control 100% of the dem party (there are no “conservative” dems - if there ever were); the leftists control the federal bureaucracy (witness Lerner et. al.); the leftists control government education; the leftists control the entertainment industry; and the leftists control the media. Any Republican has to try to get his message out there faced with opposition from all sides, and the media functions like airpower on the field of battle.
We here on FR often want Boehner and others to fight like the leftists fight, but the Republicans do not have any air cover at all. The leftists have total air superiority. The analogy is succinctly described by Bill Whittle:
https://www.billwhittle.com/commentary/bamboo-spears
Boehner and others largely behave as if they are members of a military force that is on the battle field and the enemy has complete and total air superiority. This is asymmetrical political warfare and we really need to understand that.
