I still think of Boehner as being a hack.

[Recon Dad]

Boehner’s name rarely comes up.

Because he has not had an original thought in his life. Please, someone point out where John has wowed anyone with a vision. John is a nice guy, poor orator and no leader and he's my congressman.

Pence, Ryan, Cantor, to name a few.

[J Edgar]

Boehner has shown ZERO (0) leadership to date. I pray that he is replaced with a principled and capable leader in the near future.

[struggle]

Sorry, but Ryan’s been the real a**kicker in the whole health care debate.

[yellowhammer]

Everybody has different strengths. Boehner will make a great speaker. We have plenty of others who can handle the visionary stuff. He just needs to focus on keeping everyone united and he has shown he can do that.

[csmusaret]

Someone please point out to me examples of Pelosi’s grand vision or great oratory; or Hastert’s; or Tip Oneill’s for that matter. The Speaker of the House doesn’t lead the Nation, he leads his herd of cats. We need Congressional leaders who are effective, not inspirational.

This is a good man:

"We have failed to listen to America. And we have failed to reflect the will of our constituents" Boehner

[RoadTest]

“When he finally voted for President Obama’s health-care bill, “pro-life” Rep. Bart Stupak, D-Mich., disappointed a lot of people”

We are easily taken in.

Boehner came to Huntsville, Al and campaigned for Parker Griffith. Griffith is a liberal doctor who campaigned FOR government intervention in Health Care. He is a life-long Democrat who switched from Democrat to Republican after the Health Care Town Hall meetings last summer were a disaster for him.

The conservative Republicans in Alabama’s 5th District hate Griffith and are doing everything possible to defeat Griffith in the primaries. Why that knucklehead Boehner came to Huntsville to campaign for Griffith is beyond me.

[Repeal The 17th]

Each day I grow more weary of FReepers who spout off against
every conservative voice that is brought up in the news
because they don’t speak well,
or they have bad hair,
or they said something stupid many years ago,
or because they are not outspoken enough,
or because they are not strong enough
on some key issue to suit that particular person,
or whatever the reason.

The time of choosing sides is upon us,
and I, for one, am glad that people like John Boehner
and many others who are “imperfect” are on “my side”.
