We will lose the House bigtime if we continue with thie rotgut at the top.

Why does any group select a leader who openly and blantantly defy the wishes of the group he supposesly represents?

He is a curse on the GOP

When the GOP calls asking for money, tell them not only are they not getting cash,but they aren’t getting your vote any longer as long as the progressive wing of the party is running things.

We are headed for a majority Democrat House in 2014. It would not surprise me if Boehner makes some kind a deal with Democrats to exit his post in lavish remuneration of the undisclosed kind.

He is a traitor like so many other Senators and Congressmen - all powerati RINOs content even in second-tier power.

Why doesn’t he just go ahead any change his party affiliation and stop trying to hide behind declaring himself Republican?

I don't care what laws they pass in DC. I won't comply with unconstitutional or stupid laws.

Boehner has been the problem since the day the Repubs took back the HOUSE! Cantor and his henchmen need to go too!

Something very insidious is going on in DC right now, folks. People who swore and oath to uphold and defend our Constitution are blatantly and outright abrogating their responsibilities to do so.

It’s almost as if once you’re inside the beltway, you’ve already succumbed to the siren’s song. There’s really no way for you to make it out of the district with your soul. Your ship will be scuttled on the rocks, and you will be left to wither in the sun.

I’m personally beginning to wonder if the political class, those with the money and the power to campaign and make it into DC, were on the take from the beginning, since before the elections, and they knew once they were in, and once they could safely take off their masks, they become the ghouls they truly are.

Like the Democrats (Socialists, if we’re being honest), the Republicans are tempted by the fruit of the power tree. They see now that if they could just pass this one gun control bill, they could get started on disassembling the Second Amendment altogether.

Once they start, folks, it’s game over. The time for the soapbox and the ballot box is over.

The Republicans have tasted the power. They have sampled the goodness of the Soros power structure. They’re bombarded on all sides by temptation, and they’re too weak to give it up. They don’t want to lose power now that they have. They have succumbed to the devil’s wiles.

Hopefully, this will be the nail in the coffin
for any conservative on the sidelines against the GOP
which is a front for Romney, Soros, and the DNC.

I can’t help bit feel this is all our fault. We keep electing these people out of fear that we will lose to the democrats. We always lose either way. Incumbents must go! It will hurt for awhile, but they rewards will be worth the pain. Either that, or term limits. I’m done complaining and I’m ready to clean house.

We don’t need to pass another gun law - ANY gun law.

Just enforce the ones already on the books. And rather than any ordinance about ordnance, rigorously prosecute ANYONE who uses sidearms in a criminal enterprise with an addition severity as compared with other forms of perpetuation of acts of crime. No plea-bargaining, no exceptions, no mercy, no parole. Only genuine self-defense shall be accepted as a defense.

About 13 Republicans could have stopped this kind of insanity on in early January, but, in typical Republican fashion, they folded and helped reelect Boehner as Speaker.

Boehner is sounding like GWBush the morning after the 2006 election when he ‘finally got a Congress he could work with’.

I think the headline is a little bit misleading. He’s saying he doesn’t have to have support from a majority of his caucus to bring a bill to a vote. That’s quite different from “passing” the bill. While I don’t trust him at all, if he knows the bill will fail, it might be politically prudent to bring it to a vote. Only if he knows what will happen.

Occam's Razor would indicate he's not defying their wishes.

It's possible he's doing exactly what the members want him to....take the flak and allow the rest of them to maintain their conservative bona fides. That way they can loudly protest any non-conservative legislation then admit (oh so reluctantly) that they're powerless to stop anything.

All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players

You got that right!

I called on my rep (Pete Olson - TX 22) to vote against retaining Boehner as Speaker in January. Olson chose to vote against my wishes. As a result, Olson will no longer get my support at all and I am working to see to it that he is defeated in the 2014 primary race.

“You are either with us, or you are against us” is my rule.

I am still dumbfounded about how he recently got re-elected as House Speaker. We need the roll call of votes and get rid of those responsible for propping up this traitor. Heads need to roll people.

He doesn’t need the R’s because he doesn’t advance any of the R party principles anyway.

(This guy is intelligent and could be a real HERO of the American people if he would only start doing his job ... Does he think he’s in that position to serve as a third-rate rubber stamp for the Obama Transformation of Amerika?)
