Look, knee-jerkers! You are looking at a "quote" from a leftist rag tha QUOTES A SINGLE WORD FROM LAURA.
And WTF is wrong with Boehner's quote without all the bullsh@t The Nation editorializing around it?
“Well first they want more. And my goodness, I want more too. And secondly, a lot of them believe that if we get passed August the second and we have enough chaos, we could force the Senate and the White House to accept a balanced budget amendment.... I think the closer we get to August the second, frankly, the less leverage we have vis à vis our colleagues in the Senate and the White House.”
AND STILL!!! There are freepers who are still posting, to paraphrase, "Well. Sure he didn't say any such thing, but still, the leftists are just saying Boehner's a right wing tool paying too much attention to Tea Party people because we like what he's doing!"
Look at the point of the article! Look at the summary! The LEFT is pissed at Boehner because he's not doing what they want!
They should be told to get their asses in line.
Who you calling knee-jerker?
What’s the friggin sense of claiming thats all we can get when we’ve already been told we cant even get that?
As oppposed to doing what the Tea Partiers want?! LOL.
I’m not fooled by these machinations. It’s all part of the game. Fake outrage even though the government is expanding.
Did you hear Rush the last couple of days? If we froze spending as it is right now, that would be considered a $9 Trillion cut over ten years.
I’m not playing the game anymore and won’t pay attentioin to anyone who does. We need a trillion dollars in real cuts THIS YEAR. And the cuts don’t need to be from “Social Security and Medicare.” The department of Agriculture has two buildings in Washington. Two! One has corn growing outside of it. How quaint. Fire everybody in one of them and rent it out for income. Fold what’s worthwhile into the dept. of the interior and slash that budget. The EPA should be under Interior too. That eliminates another building. Veterans Affairs should be folded back into Defense. Want revenues? Sell off or rent out government land, put tariffs on wire payments to Mexico.
There’s any number of items that can cut the budget down this year.
“The LEFT is pissed at Boehner because he’s not doing what they want!”
No kidding, Mr. Obvious! What is your point anyway?
>>> The LEFT is pissed at Boehner because he’s not doing what they want!
Boehner is standing in the middle of the road with a convoy of 18 Wheelers barreling down on him.
Guess who is not going to survive.
