Matthew 27:24

When Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere, but that instead an uproar was starting, he took water and washed his hands in front of the crowd. "I am innocent of this man's blood," he said. "It is your responsibility!"

Boehner is a poor excuse for leadership. He needs to go as speaker.

Interesting. I always heard the House is to operate as a dictatorship and the Senate is to allow the voice of the minority.

Seems they may be swapping places.

So, leadership is to vote present ONLY so that no one will think you have a bias one way or the other ... isn’t that the same modus opernedi of little barry bastard boy now running the White Hut regime?

I bet somewhere buried in his medical records it shows that years ago Boehner was a spine donor.

He’s the poorest excuse for a Speaker and a man I’ve ever seen! Much as I loathe her, I have to say Pelosi was more of a man than Boehner is! Unfortunately, she managed to accomplish a lot in her tenure as Speaker. What has he done?

Not even close. He's the HOUSE speaker, not the GOP speaker. There's already a house majority leader who one would think would be the cheerleader for GOP in the house. There is ample precedence for the Speaker of the House representing himself as at the least near neutral and not even voting unless his vote is needed. The Speaker of the House's job is to be 3rd in line for the presidency and to keep legislation flowing in the house first, representing his party 2nd.
