"I am as outraged and frustrated as you at the lawless and unconstitutional actions of this president"

Well, obviously you are not.

Worthless Poltroon.

The impasse may be the fault of the dems, but the capitulation is all yours Johnny-boy - you wet-pants, mama-crying drunkard!

Get rid of this crying coward. He is useless. If our representatives think this is a leader, we obviously have the wrong representatives.

Boehner is as predictable as McConnell is. “Yeah, we’re going to fight like hell next time!” Next time comes, capitulation again. It’s like clockwork.

They say they don't want to risk not funding DHS... well whatever. BUT...

They should have tied it to the EPA or Dept of Ed or insert anything but the one they chose.

Again, they chose it so they could cave like this. They could have easily chosen another dept.

And remember - the cromnibus passage - b/c they would fight this battle later...

pfffffft

Boehner needs to be challenged for the leadership.

This is why Freepers should not vote for the lesser of two evils. Once you do, and these corrupt RINOS are put into political power, they then control the anti-conservative agenda they support. Look at how little pressure is being applied to Boehner right now by supposed ‘real’ conservatives to stop the coming amnesty of a hundred million illegal invaders. If all Freepers had voted consistently in the past for Tea Party and U.S. Constitution-supporting leaders that wholly reject amnesty in any form or shape, we would not have McConnell or Boehner in power.

On another note, TheHill.com is reporting this afternoon:

“But conservatives opposed to moving the measure still had a few tricks up their sleeves.

....

“Lawmakers typically dispense with formally reading an entire bill on the House floor. But Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), a hard-line conservative, objected to the routine unanimous consent request to do so, a move that stalled proceedings.

“That forced House reading clerk Susan Cole to read aloud the 96-page DHS funding bill line by line. But Massie ultimately withdrew his request to read aloud the entire bill after about 20 minutes.

“Massie then forced a vote to “table,” or reject, the Senate-passed DHS bill. A vote in favor of the motion equated a vote against the underlying bill.

“The motion to table failed by a vote of 140-278. More than 90 House Republicans joined all Democrats to defeat it.

“I think it’s a good exercise. It looks like it’s going to go down in defeat, but it’s worth a try,” said Rep. John Fleming (R-La.), a member of the House Freedom Caucus.

“Fleming said it was most important that the House conducts a roll call on final passage of the DHS funding measure so that lawmakers put their positions on the record. Conservatives were wary that the House would pass it by a voice vote, like the “doc fix” sustainable growth rate (SGR) extension last year.

“It would be theoretically possible to do just it in a blink of an eye, the way SGR was done last year. And I think that would be a chicken way out of this,” Fleming said.

The House is now expected to vote on final passage of the DHS funding bill later Tuesday afternoon.”

The Dems forced this move by refusing to go to committee to rectify the differing bills. Expect to see this a lot in the next two years.

“”I am as outraged and frustrated as you at the lawless and unconstitutional actions of this president,” Boehner told his caucus”

Liar.

How “clean” can a bill have that contains dirty lawlessness?

The only thing worse than being stuck with Boehner as a so called ‘leader’ is that those Congressmen who agree with me, cannot or will not agree on a successor. This ongoing weakness despicable!

I am as outraged and frustrated as you at the lawless and unconstitutional actions of this president,

If so we need a new SOTH now.

Don’t forget McConnell on this. McConnell screwed this up even worse than did Boehner if that can be believed.

I no longer care about 2016. I am staying home and going to try to enjoy what is left.

GOP is dead to me.

What a bunch of freaking pussies.
