Boehner vs. Bachmann?

National Review ^ | 07/26/2012 | Robert Costa

[ZULU]

Boehner is, like his counterpart in the Senate, a DISGRACE. The GOP needs intelligent, aggressive, CONSERVATIVE leaders in the Senate and House, not two old decrepit party Apparatchiks whose only objective is to hang on to their princely salaries and benefits as long as possible.

[onedoug]

It’s difficult too see how Bohner, Rubio, Cantor et al are not engaged in Treason by allowing this islamist cabal to metastasize within our government. It is absolutely unbelievable. What are these idiots thinking? Or are they actually true enemies of the Republic?

[Diogenesis]

The Romney-RINO-GOPe WING is not conservative.

They are chameleons without shame. Liars all.

[G Larry]

There are 3 types of RINO’s:

1 - Those for whom Dem’s hold blackmail material,
(it’s the only thing that explains behavior such as Boehner’s and Graham’s)
2 - The self-serving, who are more interested in “reaching across the aisle”, than being “conservative”,
(ala McCain)
3 - Those who’s only core conviction is getting re-elected.

[Diogenesis]

To support the GOP is to support TREASON, DEATH PANELs,
ROMNEYCARE/OBAMACARE, Taxes (called “fees” for the Bishop),
statism, TARP, and global warming.

WHAT possible reason is there to support the GOP?

[liberalh8ter]

I don’t know Huma, but from everything I do know of her, she has a sterling character,” Boehner told reporters

So, Boehner sides with a person he doesn't know and ignorantly states has a 'sterling character' over a person he knows personally and well enough to have selected her for the seat she holds. The man is either an idiot or a conspirator or both.

[drypowder]

the general consensus is that ALL RINOs in both houses need to go. every time Bonehead bucks a critical American interist (our security) to support the insider establishment mandates, his fall just gets closer. Truly there needs to be another mechanism, other than elections, to rid ourselves of these vermin when they clearly abandon their oath.

"Thats completely in the hands of IN voters."

I'm not exactly sure how we in Indiana can remove an Ohio representative.

[Mr. K]

That’s because Bachman has a bigger set of balls than Boehner, and Boehner is jealous of her getting to wear a pretty dress and yet not crying all the time

[GraceG]

[ It’s way past time to dump crybaby, and put a man in the leadership position. ]

And by putting a “man” in the leadership position we mean, putting in a strong woman like Michelle Bachmann, because it seems now a days that the men in the Beltway have turned into geldings and that the only strong conservatives seem to be women.

[Fightin Whitey]

“Bachman has a bigger set of balls”

But Boehner uses Titleists!

(’Course he can’t keep his putter straight..)

[crosshairs]

How does one effectively lobby to get rid of Boner and McConnell?

Educate their constituents.

[crosshairs]

Has the she-devil (Hillary) invited Bachmann on a stroll through Ft. Marcy Park yet?

[GenXteacher]

It strikes me that Bachmann would make a better Speaker of the House. Boehner’s been pretty much a failure.

[DNME]

I think she would make a fine speaker of the house.

**************

Amen to that!

Can you imagine what it would be like to have a Speaker with a spine? One who would call for investigations and impeachments? One who would challenge the Constitutional violations we see daily?

Oh, be still my heart!

[Hostage]

Boehner is a RINO who needs to go regardless of this current flap with Bachmann.

Boehner has done nothing, absolutely nothing to get the country back on track.

Boehner has a position to be the voice of conservatism. He is a mouse, a small little mouse that wants to be a Rat, a democRat.

[BerryDingle]

2 - The self-serving, who are more interested in “reaching across the aisle”, than being “conservative”, (ala McCain)

I can't think of a single reason McCain would be considered conservative. His home state is under constant lawsuits, the Border Patrol has been rendered ineffective, and he's in the Middle East crowing about Libya and Syria. He also hasn't mentioned a word (that I know of) about Fast and Furious. This guy has enough crap in his backyard to make a Hoarder's reality show.

[KC_Lion]

The biggest mistake Michele made was letting that PUTZ Ed Rollins into her campaign, talk about 5th columnists.

And by putting a “man” in the leadership position we mean, putting in a strong woman like Michelle Bachmann, because it seems now a days that the men in the Beltway have turned into geldings and that the only strong conservatives seem to be women.

I say we repeal and replace John Boehner with real Conservative. I nominate Michele.

Go Michele!!!

[cripplecreek]

I’m gonna tweet that with a #Istandwithmichelebachmann

[cotton1706]

“There is a general sense among those close to Boehner, Majority Leader Eric Cantor, and Whip Kevin McCarthy that Bachmann is not so much a political threat to the leadership, but a member who needs to be better managed. Still, they say, because she does not consult with leadership on most of her initiatives and does not respond well to emissaries or private counsel, many aides feel that Boehner’s public statement was the best way to send a message — for now.”

This thinking is highly insulting. The speaker of the House and the leadership are not a representatives bosses. They do not have to check in with them. Bachmann needs to answer to her direct constituents and to the people of the United States. That is it. Bachmann has demonstrated time and time again that she is looking out for the country, while Boehner, Cantor, McCarthy etc. have continually screwed us over. They don’t want anybody rocking their boat and that’s just too damn bad!
