The support from Boehner is tepid at best. He and Cantor have indicated that they are afraid that the contempt citation will pull the Republicans “off” their message!
Two observations for Boehner and Cantor:
1) How can you be pulled “off message” when no one in the country has a flippin’ clue what your message is? You guys have let the Democrats and the media define the argument for years, which is why your support continues to erode.
2) The Attorney General of the United States, acting in collusion with the Department of Homeland Security, and possibly with the Executive Branch, concocted a plan to force law abiding gun dealers to sell weapons to straw buyers who then took them across the border and handed them to members of drug cartels where they have been used to kill hundreds of people, including at least two members of US Law Enforcement. This is THE biggest story of the entire campaign and will awaken and enrage millions of moderate and conservative voters...If you don’t understand that, you have no business being in leadership positions!
I hope it is rope-a-dope
The message is, I think, "It doesn't matter what you want, or what we say, we'll do what we will."
The Republican party, as a whole, is pretty terrible; what stated party planks do they actually forward?
Smaller government? When was the last time there was a government agency disbanded? (Merging and renaming don't count.)
Abortion? Even when we had the Executive and the Legislative, they did not do anything even a symbolic gesture.
Fiscal Responsibility? See the 'smaller government' question.
Anti-corruption? Look at how vigorously (not at all vigorous) they've investigated/prosecuted Fast and Furious.
With Romney as their pick -- just NY-23 on a national scale -- it's obvious that they don't want to listen or do what they say they will. Obama and such are at least honest when they scorn Americans for being "bitter clingers" to Bibles and guns; the Republican party though, "says all the right things" but doesn't do anything about them.
No TEA Party candidates need apply, that is the message Cantor and his crew have been sending. Boehner has now corrupted all but 4 or 5 of those that were sent there to drain that RINO swamp.
