Obama orders Boehner, McConnell, to report to him Saturday morning
Fox News Live | 7/22/11

Posted on 07/22/2011 4:12:37 PM PDT by pabianice

In an eye-poppingly nasty and derranged press conference, Obama ordered Boehner and McConnell to appear before His Majesty tomorrow morning (7/23) at 1100 (that's 11:00, military time). The conference was called by The One to express his displeasure with the Repubs because they refuse to accept almost $2 trillion in new spending in order for the debt ceiling to be raised "until 2013" so Obama doesn't have to deal with that issue as he runs for reelection.

Stay tuned.

ABC radio just announced it as ‘Obama takes the wood to the republicans’....(eye roll). LOL...very strange metaphor considering the modern vernacular and all.

Yes I have thought for a while about bringing this up. I’m not joking.

He “ordered” the majority and minority leaders of both Houses.

Tell Obama no more conversations until he produces a valid budget proposal- scored by the CBO. That should keep him preoccupied for the next month, or so.

How they'll look if they go.

Just another example of Obama's incompetent 'leadership'.

The perfect response from Boehner would be is to tell Obama that he cannot break his Saturday golf commitment.

The Speaker of the House of Representatives is a Constitutionally mandated position, and the Speaker is 3rd in line (counting the current occupant) to the presidency.

The Speaker has always been seen as the head of the body that is most responsive to and most in touch with the people of the US. It is the House that is the sole originator of any bills for raising revenue.

The Speaker’s position is every bit as separate and significant as the President’s, and the Speaker is NOT in any way at all answerable to the President, who is Commander and Chief ONLY of the military.

The Speaker should not respond to an imperial-sounding summons or order ever! That is not the type of government we have.

Additionally, I’d like to see Boehner start calling as many press conferences with preliminary speech stating positions as does Obama. Even if only from the floor of the House, it will be, at least, carried on C-Span. Hopefully, Fox will cover it.

It is time for Boehner to come in Saturday morning with Articles of Impeachment.

What Boehner and Mitchell should do is tell barry that they have plans for tomorrow, don’t say what and then.... wait for it... go play golf together at “obastard’s” own course and have a HUGE entourage with them. Hire camp followers if they have to. Laugh it up, smoke cigars and have a few drinks.

Oh yes, make sure they are on the back 9 at 1100 hrs.
