Boehner apparently was too slow to figure out(no thanks to McCain and Graham who made statements on their way out of DC early and there was something else pushing Boehner from McConnells side we need to vote out dems in the Senate and their majority rules)he was being set up.
*if* these guys are so slow, dimbulbs, naive, whatever, how the hell did they get into positions of power ???
i realize that there are some honestly moronic folks on the left, who are there because their constituents are retarded, but for anyone wearing an 'R' next to their name, theyre shrewd lawyers for the most part...
lawyers are 'for hire' generally speaking, at least in my experience...no dimbulbs, but playing a role, anglin for a payday...
believing that they are any 'better' than bambam in the long run is the naivete...and the citizenry gets to pick a side and *think* that theyre makin some kind of difference...
the *perfect* candidate myth is gone in my view, and as SOL referenced, i have been baiting the ABBB crowd and refuting that, as well as our having a candidate anywhere near 50% or better at 'representing' my politics...
weve been screwed for my adult life, however, its just fairly recently i realized how much kabuki was really in the theatre, and reconciled that fact and being determined to not FEAR the inevitable any longer...
make peace with it and prepare for the future...
Because it seems that DC changes people who get elected. They want people to like and reelect them. Witness the whole freshman GOP class voting for Reid's $shit sandwich. DC is the perfect honey trap.
The same way the GOP has always done it: It was "their turn."
