House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) continued to blast outside conservative groups over their opposition to the budget deal struck by Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) and Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.), saying in a press conference Thursday that they have "lost all credibility."

" When you criticize something and you have no idea what you’re criticizing, you’ve lost your credibility," Boehner told reporters on Capitol Hill.

If Boehner is renominated, patriots in his district must vote for the Democrat.

Pour encourager les autres.

A bitter — but necessary — pill. That said, given the small and diminishing gap between the DemonRATS and the GOP Rinos, if the pubbies keep the house(if obozo and his moronic minions keep screwing up), it looks as though they will, the upside is that John “Mr. Appeasement” Boner will be the history.

"It was my job and my obligation to stand up for conservatives here in Congress," Boehner said Thursday of his original comments.

This bastard is now officially as delusional as Obama if he actually believes that's what he's doing.

What an evil worm.

Georgia Representative Tom Price (RINO) was on the radio yesterday touting they did not raise taxes, but then went on to claim they raised TSA fees at airports.

This is the typical dipwad polidiot that claims taxes at airports were raised because otherwise 'taxpayers' were funding the TSA, but now with these increased fees those that travel will pay the costs.

So, to this Republican dipwad, Tom Price (RINO), travelers are not taxpayers and travelers paying more is not a 'tax increase'.

On top of that, if taxes were not raised, then what did he do with the money he supposedly saved by raising TSA fees on travelers? If taxpayers are no longer paying the TSA fees then where did that savings go? What did he do with the saved money? Did we get a tax decrease? Nope. He kept the money.

Tom Price (RINO) is an idiot, a liar, and a prime example of why this nation will not survive.

Let's add Bonehead was part of this and takes as much blame as anyone.

Primary, Primary, Primary...
If this is not successful, than sacrifice the seat!

I've been thinking the same, but along these lines:

For every Ted Cruz we send to DC, I can live with 2-3 "unviable" candidates that unseat the incumbent in the primary.

It's going to take a generation to change the mindset inside the Beltway.

When a tax and spending bill increases “revenues” (a euphemism for taxes) and still increases the deficit, you don’t need any more details. Any increase in federal spending from the current unsustainable levels is destructive, wrong, and fully deserving of criticism.

OSCAR. PREVIEW

In an unprecedented flood of nominations not seen since Gone with The Wind the surprise entry

American Quisling

has received multiple nominations in every category threatening to sweep the boards.

House Speaker John Boehner's eponymous role reveals a stunning breadth of character previously unimaginable. Teary at times, force full and angry enough to win accolades and prime time quotes from NPR news, John tests his chops trying to portray a patriotic American while being a double agent for forces seeking America's destruction.

supporting cast includes Chief Justice John Roberts, the entire RNC, notable Senators McCain and others too numerous to mention

The musical score adapted from the Twilight of the Gods adds the delicious note of ultimate destruction. Chris Matthews said, "Whoa! Tingles running up both legs!"

See it now!

I would ask “Who in the f#ck do you think you are talking too?”

There has got to be an organic reason for this Boehner dementia. He needs a brain MRI.

I'm sending a short email to my congress critter asking:

"If Boehner and McConnell represent the GOP, and they are the best you've got, why in hell should I give you one red cent, or even bother going to the polls to vote for you?"

Agreed! And this is the only way they could get a ‘deal’ from the Democrats!

” When you criticize something and you have no idea what you’re criticizing, you’ve lost your credibility,”

Something that could be said for Mr. Bonior too.
He has lost all credibility with me.
