that would require harry to give a damn about actually doing the will of the people rather than just what he wants. those people are not at all interested in cooperating, the 50% who lost the election last night can go die and rot for all he cares.

not gonna happen

We have two legislative bodies for a reason. The House has an enormous amount of power. But it takes a peron of determination and will, such as a Gingrich, to wield it. Boehner seems to have ceded all legislative authority and power to the senate and specifically, to Harry Reid. Reid can’t do crap without the House acting, either before or after the senate. The House conservatives need to have the balls to start voting down bills, and furthermore, sending to the senate, bills whose funding is well below the senate’s desired levels.

Leave the president completly out of it until the legislative process is oomplete. The Speaker of the House is a far more powerful position than the Senate Majority Leader. Boehner needs to be willing to use that power, or step aside for someone who is.
