More evidence that Boehner is worst Speaker ever.

[Synthaholic]

the republican stupidity has become so entrenched that they have no shred of integrity left.


I find myself not even wanting to discuss any of these issues with them anymore.

Its like trying to reason with an insane person who has been on the wrong medication for six months.

Exactly correct. From the posters who don't have a clue as to the facts, to the deflection artists, like in this thread, to the thread derailers, who do anything they can to muddy the water, this place has become overrun with immature hacks.

They are so devoted to their failed ideas no matter what the facts on the ground are.


How can so many be so stupid?

They think if they say something often enough it becomes true.

 

[rightwinger]

As Speaker, Pelosi had a significant resume of major legislative accomplishments including passing Healthcare, stimulus, TARP, repealing DADT, financial reform...

Boehner will at best be a non factor as speaker and at worst end up shutting down government like Gingrich

 

[Trajan]

The man is simply incompetent at his job. Last week he broght a bill to a vote before he had the votes, and he lost, which is embarrassing for any Speaker.

Now, he can't even keep vital services running:

FAA faces partial shutdown


The Federal Aviation Administration faced a partial shutdown Saturday morning as Congress adjourned Friday without approving a routine stop-gap funding measure amid partisan acrimony.


More than 4,000 FAA workers, 1,000 of them in the Washington region, and tens of thousands of airport construction workers under FAA contract faced immediate furlough. The nation’s air travel system will not be affected, with air traffic controllers remaining on the job and airline operations continuing as normal.
​

and this is boehners fault why, exactly?

He's the Speaker. It's up to him to bring funding bills to a vote.


Jesus Christ, I can't believe I have to explain this shit to you.

1) they have, 2 in fact, your memory that poor?

please show me the senate mark ups that have been resubmitted for approval by the senate/ house subcommittee.......go ahead, I'll wait.


2) boehner has no control over what parts there of, in the gov. that do or not get cut when this type of blanket issue begins. Guess who controls that?

3) I do not need, unlike you, a lesson on how the gov. budgetary process works, you by your own ignorance betrayed in the very quote above have proved that you are not an authority on that matter as something so simple eludes you.

 

[Trajan]

I've recently become aware that I've been giving you way too much credit in the brains department.

and I have long been aware that your 'intellect' is a mish mash of gobbledygook hate and sheeple speak.

 

[rightwinger]

I actually feel sorry for Boehner and think he wants to do a good job as Speaker. His problem is that Democrats treat him better than the TeaTard wing of his own party. He can work with Democrats because they, like Boehner wan to do what is best for the country.
The TeaTards response on every issue is shut it down or kill it

Democrats do whats best for keeping themselves in power. Nothing more. Repulicans aren't much different. Conservatism supports less power but Republican and conservatism is not synonomous.

What vital services have been lost due to this partial shutdown?

Off the top of my head?

Routine maintenance and repair.

Expansion and improvement.

But those are just guesses.

No he hasn't.

He's never voted for a tax increase..and has handed out bribes to congress people RIGHT on the FLOOR of the House for the Tobacco lobby. He just seems more reasonable because the level of insanity in the current crop of hooligans from the Republicans that make up the House is off the meter.

Speak for yourself conservaturd.

Again..I'll bring this up.

You want more direct democracy? As in a line item tax return? So you can check off what you don't want to spend money on?

I'd leave off:
-Funding for the Israeli Military.
-Funding for the Egyptian Military.
-Funding for Pakistan.
-Funding for Iraq.
-Funding for Afghanistan.
-Funding for Gitmo.
-Funding for Missile Defense.
-Funding for 650 foreign US military bases.
-Funding the oil industry.
-Funding privatized prisions.
-Funding for Michele Bachmann's farm.
-Funding for Michele Bachmann's husband's medical institute.

That's a start.

 

[Sallow]

Democrats do whats best for keeping themselves in power. Nothing more. Repulicans aren't much different. Conservatism supports less power but Republican and conservatism is not synonomous.

Care to elaborate?

Sure.

Conservative type of governments include Oligarchy, Monarchy, Theocracy, Aristocracy, Plutocracy, Corportatism/Fascism, and Totalitarism.

They don't support less power. They support less democracy. And more power into the hands of a small monied elite or rulers who have the bloodline (As in given by a deity) or people with the most guns.

 

[Wry Catcher]

We need a real leader like Nancy Pelosi back, huh?

You have zero credibility in suggesting Speaker Pelosi isn't a leader; of course it also displays your ignorance and lack of understanding of leadership and what a partisan asshsole you are.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

She was able to competently pass the routine, mundane bills that keep the country running.

Like the budgets she never wrote? Or maybe you mean how she had to pass legislation in order to know what was in it? Sure, Boehner is a boob, no doubt, but this woman is completely corrupt.

First, I didn't bring up Speaker Pelosi, so you are only responding to another poster's desperate deflection away from Boehner's incompetence.


Second, When Bush came into office in 2001, there was much criticism of him not knowing specifics, world leaders, math, procedure, how to boil water, etc. The wingnut response was that he was a "manager", and left the details to people who he trusts.

Why was that good for Bush, but Pelosi has to have knowledge of every section of every bill?

Ummm.... gee, let me think about that for a second......... YEAH!! I do expect her and every other member of Congress to know what the fuck they are voting on. Don't you???

 

[bodecea]

Or do you consider the FAA a Socialist plot?

She shoved the healthcare bill down our throats. Then she voted

* NO on the Border Security Bill
* NO on making the Republican tax cuts permanent
* NO on eliminating the marriage penalty
* NO on eliminating the death tax
* NO on creating Health Savings Accounts
* NO on the Defense of Marriage Act
* NO on the 1996 Welfare Reform Law (and NO on its reauthorization)
* NO on protecting the Pledge of Allegiance
* NO on banning partial-birth abortion
* NO on requiring a photo I.D. to ensure only legal voters vote
* NO on the Patriot Act
* NO on authorizing domestic tracking of terrorists
* NO on military tribunals and new interrogation rules for terrorist detainees

But this isn't about her shitty leadership, it's about Boehner - so, carry on.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

What does any of that have to do with the OP?

And the majority of those votes comport with settled Constitutional case law, the last three in particular with regard to 4th Amendment search and seizure issues and 5th and 6th Amendment due process rights.

Just because they don't happen to agree does not mean they are deflecting or derailing the topic. They're simply pointing out we had it much worse with Ms. Clueless Prissy Britches Pelosi.
