John Boehner epitomizes all that is wrong with the Republican Establishment. Boehner has thwarted every plan to overturn or ameliorate the most heinous aspects of Obama's neo-tyrannical rule.
These days, I like to call Boehner Crying Cheeto. That is because he is an odd orange- or yellow-color, and cries at the drop of a hat.
Boehner started, seemingly, on the right track. He was helpful in engineering the Contract with America in 1994, which helped propel Newt Gingrich to the position of the Chairman of the House. He quickly turned, however, and was involved in an unsuccessful attempt to unseat Gingrich in 1997. Over time, it became clear that though he largely voted along conservative lines, that he was drifting left.
In 2001, he partnered with the odious Ted Kennedy to push the 'No Child Left Behind' act, which greatly expanded the Federal role in local educational efforts, which set the stage for the introduction of the mathematically-illiterate and highly liberal agenda-setting standard known as 'Common Core'.
In 2004, he started to show pro-illegal leanings, by voting NO on reporting illegal aliens who receive hospital treatment.
In 2011, he was becoming a full-on Obama sycophant, declaring -- for example -- that the TARP program is a "crap sandwich", but he voted for it anyway.
Finally, in 2014 and 2015, he came out as a closet "Progressive Republican" (Read: Democrat) all along. The Crying Cheeto has acted just like a Democrat, or has favored funding Democrat initiatives, in the following ways:
It has become glaringly obvious that Boehner is not a man 'on our team' that we disagree with. Conservatives need to understand that the Crying Cheeto is an adversary intent on thwarting the change they came to Washington to bring. It is that simple.
I urge you to contact your Representative on Monday, January the 5th, and urge your House member to vote AGAINST John Boehner, and for Louie Gohmert instead. We can tip the balance. This will spell out America's future.
The vote is on Tuesday. Act on Monday.
Being from Ohio, I was proud when John was elected Speaker. Now I’m embarrassed! He’s such a failure! Time for him to retire so he can spend more time with his tanning bed.
“The Crying Cheeto” is a better moniker than “that orange drunk guy” ...
Personally Laz, I think you did an outstanding job on this article. Hit the nail right on the head, as usual.
I emailed my representative this morning and asked him to look into his Heart and not Vote for Bohner. I think he will follow my advice.
After all he is Lloyd Doggett (D), The 35th wonder of TEXAS.
I love this!
to paraphrase Dean Wormer: “Tan drunk and stupid is no way to govern Mr. Speaker”
bump!
Call Chris Smith’s office, tell them you live in the 4th district and demand that he vote for Louie. His DC office number is (202) 225-3765.
I urge you to contact your Representative on Monday, January the 5th, and urge your House member to vote AGAINST John Boehner, and for Louie Gohmert instead. We can tip the balance. This will spell out America's future.
BUMP
Mark Levin will be back tomorrow - I think he will be all over this ousting of Boehner.
Good job, Laz. I just emailed my congressman, Matt Salmon and will call his office tomorrow. I think we can count on him.
Terycarl, as Palin would say, "Chill."
I and a whole lotta others think the "Crying Cheeto" is brilliant and hilarious, perfect pitch in capturing the pathetic political cartoon Boehner has become. That you think it's "childish" speaks only to your own interpretation.
My rep is a stupid Democrat who does only what the party tells him to. If he does respond to correspondence, it’s by way of a form letter no doubt prepared for him by the party. He doesn’t take phone calls from his constituents either. I’ve been told he’s never in the office to talk to the rabble and any phone messages for him are discarded. He never sees them.
To be fair, Republicans are often no better. I wrote to my Republican senator urging him to vote to block one of Obie’s edicts. Said he would, but didn’t.
Our elected officials don’t represent us. We don’t have enough money for the necessary bribes.
PING!
Crying Cheeto
BTTT
Gohmert, Yoho, Massie and Bridenstine running for Speaker. Cue up “The Boys Are Back In Town”.
This one is too important for ego. They should pow-wow, draw straws, whatever, and all the others drop out.
I will never tire of your humor. Ever.
