Listen, a Pelosi as minority leader would not have accepted the defeat quietly or graciously. Boehner should have done everything possible to raise hell when they passed the bill.
Clearly he is not up to the fight. Not as leader. No amount of decorum will make him ‘adult or man’.

As a Minority Leader, Pelosi would've had the full attention of the MSM -- happy to serve as her megaphone.
As a Majority Leader, Boehner's statements are generally ignored by the MSM, if they are not misconstrued. For example, he has been supportive of Issa's committee at every opportunity -- yet the MSM has portrayed him as a "waffler".
And most FReepers have bought into the MSM's interpretation.
Will we ever realize that we are the targets of organized propaganda and misinformation campaign by the MSM -- and learn to disbelieve everything they say (even the parts we want to hear)?
