Now, Representative Boehner has one of two different courses he may follow - Be magnanimous, and withhold any punishment of those who chose NOT to vote for him, or he can go after the dissidents and show them what having power really means. After all, that second alternative would be the course pursued by the opposition party, and while they were in charge, it was highly effective in maintaining party discipline.
But, should Boehner decide it more prudent to be magnanimous, let this be extended to the majority of GOP voters as well. Get on the phone with Newt Gingrich, and get his input toward drawing up a new “Contract with America”, an agenda to mitigate the very worst abuses imposed in the past six years by the Current Occupant of the edifice which he has degraded into the White Hut, and to keep Mitch McConnell over in the Senate steering to true north.
It is entirely possible that a decent and honest approach will peel off enough Democrat votes in both the House and Senate to override any veto or threat of veto, and force some degree of conformity with American ideals upon the Current Regime.
We go to war using the army we have, not with the army we want.
I wouldn’t hold my breath...
Newt Gingrich? I heard him on Hannity on Tuesday. I’m no longer a fan.
Hubba, Hubba........ love how you think! I always liked Newt. HE was the best and the GOPe tossed him overboard. Sickening. He is one sharp cookie.
Keep the faith and let’s keep up the pressure.
