John Boehner warns of GOP's "false prophets" in D.C.
Just reading this weasel's parting words; it got me to thinking, is anyone gonna miss this guy? If so, explain.
The person who takes his place as speaker of the house will miss him greatly . The elected Republicans aren't team players. The position of speaker isn't respected. Despising partisan politics is the cool thing now. If you defy the leadership in your party then you have people's loyalty forever. My congressman (Walter Jones) is the worst offender. He is more loyal to God and country than he is to the Republican Party. It is no surprise that Boehner got burnt. The Republican is help bent on being as weak as possible. Who wants to the leader of destructionist morons?
Boehner was ineffective. I'm not sure that can all be credited to him.
Worst offender? More loyal to God and Country than he is to the party. Guess what hero, his oath of office compels him to support and defend the Constitution of the United States, not the republican party. People who put party above country are the problem, not the solution.
Reading stories about God and country is supposed to provide you with inspiration and encouragement. It isn't supposed to be practical advice for swimming through a world full of sharks. As a matter of record, I think the Bible often shows us that the bad guy usually wins. Even if you read the Bible it doesn't teach you to be childish and unrealistic.
Walter Jones is delusional and has an inflated sense of self importance. A good politician advises his party and votes with them 100% of the time once the final product has been produced. Only a child throws a temper tantrum when he doesn't get his way. Walter Jones isn't the only republican that "votes his conscience". Living in la la land is unbecoming of a grown man with responsibilities. I think we should vote these children out of office and elect some men.
How hard is it to wait for the decision of the party leaders and then agree? It seems simple to win once you have a majority. The hard part is getting all the Republicans elected. The easy part is being loyal to your team.
This seems so f-----ing simple. I must be missing something.
