I want my representatives to do what they say when they campaign. Making excuses for posers isn't something that I'm prone to. That's why we got Bush (BTW a great terrorist protector, but terrible fiscal controller - increased our budget immensely and didn't do a whole lot for freedom with all three branches in his grasp). That's why we got McCain (a poser all the way round liberal and I think, genuinely crazy person).

Finally, that's why we have Obama now. And, Boehner's performance and that of his excusers is why we will have Obama for a second term if they aren't called to the carpet. Yes, I'm mad - I'm damned mad. They squandered the one bullet they have in this fight and any talk about the 'next big fight' will turn out like this one. I'm damned disappointed and don't much cotton to being called sophomoric for explaining what is true just because one might not like the truth I speak.

I don't think you're sophomoric, FWIW!
