No flames here. I think Boehner is playing the best game he can play with the shitty cards that have been dealt to him. He basically said he’s going to use the power of the purse on Obamacare. Works for me. He reiterated his comittement to not raising taxes. That works for me too. Some folks won’t be happy unless he sets the country on fire.
“No flames here”
You are about the first to recognize he was dealt a shitty hand. Although at this point I’m not sure if he’s right guy for this time. A charismatic messenger would be the ticket and I like Jim Robinson’s reiteration of Mark Levin’s idea of electing someone outside congress for the Speakership. We may be able to get approval ratings above 10% if they tried to use that ploy. A true conservative with a Reaganist charm.....lol
Boehner’s probably the straightest arrow I’ve seen.. I get tired just watching him. But because Republicans won’t stand by him and libs obviously don’t like him, his only support base are the congress people that vote him in.
