Who granted Boehner a ten year term?

Posted on 07/23/2011 5:12:06 PM PDT by JimWayne

Can someone please explain what authority Boehner has to determine the budgets of future governments? Has he been granted a TEN YEAR term to the House of Representatives? He keeps talking of cutting spending in ten years time. Clearly, he was not voted for a ten year period. He needs to prepare the budget for his term, not for all eternity.

If most of them ignore the Constitution now, why would they follow another amendment to it later?

So then it is your contention that the Constitution is worthless?

Either your a TROLL or totally naive.

A proud troll -- or totally naive -- since 1998.

Get off your high horse.
