Conservative ire against Boehner hits boiling point

How'd those four get assigned to that committee in the first place?

Look, taxes should be raised. At least to where they were before the so-called Bush cuts. Dems should also be offering up meaningful spending cuts and stop giving away the farm to unaccountable charlitans, frauds, and perfectly employable individuals.

I understand that "wealth" can be a relative term but it seems the rich as well as the poor have no concept of the true meaning of wealth.

Why on Earth should taxes go up?

Things cost more than they used to.

If we adjusted federal spending for inflation we would be since 2005 we would be spending roughly $2.3 trillion right now. Coincidentally, tax revenues right now are just about $2.3 trillion.

Exactly how much more does everything cost?
 
Never liked Boehner. Not only is he strange but he is useless. Why are the leaders of both parties so weird?

Actually Boehner is a fairly competent politician, who might have been a very good Speaker had it not been for the TPM nitwits.

By his nature Boehner is a pragmatist, he wants to put country first and do what’s best for America; but the TPM and radical right are forcing him to put party first.

Sad, really.

You can adjust current figures for historical inflation 'till the cows come home. Things cost more by exactly how much they cost today. In current dollars.
 
Their removal was said to be punishment for bucking the GOP leadership establishment "too often."

the above is what matters in the House - "bucking the GOP leadership" and really has nothing to do with Ideology - can anyone believe there was ever a more "conservative" House than the 112th ?

not so now though the 113th.

You are the one saying things cost more, so tell us what, exactly, costs more and how much more does it cost?

Taxes should be raised??? Wow! How about eliminating the hundreds of BILLIONS in waste and duplication? How about eliminating the billions in programs the government shouldn't be doing? The politicians will just waste whatever you raise in taxes.
