I wanted to email Boehner and say thanks and stand strong.

Server is so busy, I couldn’t...

Good letter ... good start. Every time the Little Man with cheeks of tan opens his mouth Boehner and/or other Republicans need to hit him again ... a little presidential Whack-a-Mole.

Thank you, Speaker Boehner for standing strong and working so hard to save our country from those who do not have its best interests at heart.

Good job Boehner for keeping it together and not buying Obummers BS. This is a winning argument and every day that goes by, the House's CC&B is gaining steam.

Wonderful Boehner deserves our support.

It appears from this letter Speaker Boehner understands two of my three tenants of my three-point economic reform plan:

1. Every government agency at the Federal, state and county level must be aggressively audited the following wasteful items:

a. Bureaucratic overlap--too many agencies are trying to do the same job when one agency should be doing it instead.
b. Agency bloat--too many agencies are just too big and need to be pruned back quite a bit.
c. Too many regulations--there are a lot of regulations that either are not worthy the expenditure to enforce the regulation or no longer needed due to changes since the law was first passed.

We need to use these audits to streamline government by as much as 30% immediately, with a goal of 50% or more in 4-5 years.

2. The current income tax system needs to be gutted right now because it has become an overly-complex mess that wastes resources (US$300 BILLION per year in compliance costs right now), drives millions of jobs, thousands of factories, hundreds of corporate headquarters, and maybe as much as US$14 TRILLION in American-owned liquid assets out of the country for income tax avoidance reasons, and is being overly-used as a means of political coercion. The Steve Forbes flat-rate income tax plan should be at minimum what our income tax system should be like, and we should seriously consider ending the income tax in favor of a national consumption tax like FairTax (H.R. 25/S. 13).

I wonder what would happen if Boehner were to “suggest” to Obama that he make sure all of his “paperwork” was in order for the upcoming election year?

Who would be feeling the pressure to cave then?

[cashless]

I appreciate the Speaker's letter. Hope he doesn't go all weepy on us when the pressure doubles and triples next week.
Maybe smart to let the duffer in chief sit this one out but Harry Reid has already picked up Biden’s and Obama’s mantle of no cuts without taxes increasing. Find 20 DemocRat tax breaks they passed for their special interest groups. Announce to the press that you have done as the POTUS and Majority Leader Reid have requested and that you aill rework the CCB and will agree to these tax breaks and make them part of the legislation. Pass it in the House and send it to the Senate. CALL THEIR BLUFF. When they reject that, add 20 more DemocRat special interest tax breaks. Hold a press conference, express sorrow for not having enough tax increases in your previous CCB and ask if the Democrats will ever have enough tax increases to make the CCB acceptable. Make Harry Reid and Mitch McConnell both blow a gasket. Go to Rasmussen's website and how much the American people are on our side and imagine how much more they will be after a CCB with tax increases is rejected twice.

I hope he wasn’t really trying to “lock arms” with Obitchslap.
