Boehner profits from Obamacare stocks

An analysis of Boehner’s current investment holdings includes a number of stocks benefiting from Obamacare in a total portfolio estimated at between $3.5 and $5 million in current market value.

Boehner’s Obamacare-related investments trace back to 2009, when the Obama administration was pushing the Affordable Health Care Act through Congress.

Boehner has consistently maintained his investments are held in a blind trust and that he does not personally make investment decisions in his own investment portfolio. But few experienced congressional critics believe Boehner and other members of Congress are unaware of their investment holdings, because public disclosure requirements demand yearly filings of all investments.

“...Boehner has consistently maintained his investments are held in a blind trust and that he does not personally make investment decisions in his own investment portfolio....”

Right, and I’m the Easter Bunny. I’ll be interested to see how many of Boehner’s fellow Republican Representatives support this corrupt poseur!

“We are all eager to see Boehner booted from the speaker’s chair, but has anyone investigated Goohmert and the other contenders for the job? I wonder how many of them might be profiting from Obamacare and other ventures of the king.

I just fear we will replace one traitor with another.”

Jeez, trying to spread some fear, uncertainty and doubt (FUD) about Boehner’s challengers, are we?

Obama could not succeed without Boehner.

Boehner stymies Republicans, he does not oppose Obama, and when Boehner does take an action it is to defend or to one-up Obama in advancing Obama’s agenda.

On July 2, 2013 when Obama announced the implementation date of PPACA mandates would be modified from January 1, 2014 to 2015, Boehner did not challenge Obama’s authority to modify an act of Congress, instead he was indignant that the change applied only to companies with more than fifty employees and not to smaller companies and to individuals (e.g., http://www.speaker.gov/video/boehner-unfair-delay-obamacare-mandate-businesses-while-leaving-families-hook). Boehner then sought a series of bills to delay PPACA mandates for smaller companies and individuals (e.g., http://talkingpointsmemo.com/dc/boehner-considering-bill-to-delay-obamacare-s-individual-mandate-for-a-year).

There have been dozens of instances of Obama modifying PPACA, none of these illegal decrees have been opposed by Boehner and all of which have been funded. Boehner wants to sue Obama for modifying acts of Congress (PPACA).

Boehner saw to it that Obama’s “Executive amnesty” is funded as well.

Obama directly usurps Congressional authority and Boehner will not oppose him.

Boehner’s is incompent.

There is now a full scale assault upon the United States by a lawless and corrupt Executive led by Obama. While he might be sufferable in ordinary times Boehner is not the man for these times. He has no idea what is going on around him. He MUST go. He is the primary impediment to the Republicans’ ability to confront Obama.

Yes. Precisely. (Although considering the character he has portrayed, I’m sure there is much more than this.) I’m ready to see people that WE elect TO REPRESENT WE THE PEOPLE start doing that instead of getting in office to fill their own personal coffers. I’m ready to revert to the way it was at the beginning when this whole thing we call GOVERNMENT started. Where our representatives come out poorer than when they went in. That’s how they leave us whenever they happen to go after decades.
