Boehner: Talking to Obama Like Talking to Someone From Another Planet By Erick Hamme September 15, 2011

(CNSNews.com) - In a question-and-answer session after his speech to the Economic Club of Washington, D.C, on Thursday, House Speaker John Boehner (R.-Ohio) said that speaking with President Barack Obama is sometimes like speaking to someone from a different planet.

The moderator, David Rubinstein, asked Boehner: “So, when you played golf with the president, it didn’t result in your bonding with him, would you say?”

"Listen, the President and I have a very good relationship. We get along fine,” said Boehner. “But, we come from two different worlds. I come to this job as a small business person who felt that government was too big, spent too much, and was out of control; and I still look at myself as that same person. The president comes from a different ideology. And while we have a good relationship sometimes the conversations that we have would be like two groups of people from two different planets.......

The truth gets lost in Boehner’s attempt at humorous hyperbole. He should have said “another country”.

Maybe it has something to do with that scar on O's head.

Not sure what part of Obama, Boehner et al, per Repub Leadership, do not get. . .

They can certainly; or should, absolutely; recognize the personal and ideological pathology - by now.

Am truly sick of the 'pap attacks'. We are at war with these people; for the soul and future, of America.

The REAL problem is that with obama, there’s no there there. Both mind and heart are absent or deficient. That’s why he makes such a good puppet for Soros and Al-Waleed, but it would be difficult for most people to have a conversation with him.

Ideology is not the issue. Reagan and Tip O’Neil understood each other very well, although one was conservative and the other was liberal. (Of course, obama’s “liberalism” goes WAY beyond O’Neil’s, and is really totalitarianism.)

Listening to Obama is like listening to a foreigner.

Any conversation I might have with Oblame-o would most likely end very shortly...

The first time he hinted at white guilt and the American sin of my ancestors who never bought or sold a slave and didn’t believe in slavery, I would ask him why he never toured apologizing for his Luo Mozlem ancestors selling indigenous black Africans on the road to Mombassa that were sent all over the WORLD into slavery...
