Yeah, I didn’t really mean younger as much as tea party-leaning instead of tea party-corrupting and tea party-killing, which is how the current GOP leadership could be described.

It’s often not wise to shoot for the king unless you can kill him, so you may not hear much in terms of opposition until the good guys have more votes.

“It’s often not wise to shoot for the king unless you can kill him”

Boehner is pretty unpretentious and he ain’t that smart, but the guy has alot of heart and wants to the do right thing. I don’t think he has ever done an earmark on a bill. I think he got burned the last time, I’ll be surprised if he does it again.

He want’s to kill deductions and decrease spending. If it works it may get us closer to a flat tax. Politically it may sound like getting rid of deductions it is a tax increase, and decreasing spending is called reducing waste.... we’ll see.
