Speaker Boehner and Conservatives

[longknife]

First, Kansas Republican Rep. Tim Huelskamp wants Republicans to join him in proclaiming reaffirmed commitments to the Americans for Tax Reform (ATR) pledge against tax increases.

Then, Boehner and other GOP “leaders” purge him and other conservatives from their committee chairmanships.

In other words, don't go along with the Republicans who've spent their entire lives as “public servants” and get silenced.

House Speaker Denies "Purging" Conservatives


He is such a coward.

Taxes are going to go up. We are either going to strike a deal or go over the cliff. It's better for America if we strike a deal.

 

[Crackerjack]

Y'all keep on voting Republican though, because they're the conservative party, m'kay?

Beginning to think otherwise...

No, and history proves otherwise.


Look it up.

Mehh, nevermind....drones will be drones.

Buh Bye, Boner.

Boehner may be a washington-insider/career politician but he knows who butters his bread

So it's better that taxes rise by $500 billion and defense spending cut by $50 billion next year with no progress on spending?

Got it.

Either way, obama is going to get whatever he wants.

Yup, he always does. Glad I registered as an idependent two years ago, because the majority of these republicans I see today are nothing more than gutless, liberal LITE. Fuck 'em. And fuck boner too, sniveling little spineless turd. Obama plays him like a two bit piano.

I say give obama EVERYTHING he wants, which is go over the cliff, and when our economy implodes, and it will, he owns it. Well, he owns it now.

Imploding the economy is an essential part of the Cloward-Piven Agenda that obama is following. Once the nation goes off the fiscal cliff, obama can easily pass whatever targeted policies he wants AND he won't have to fight for defense spending cuts. Those will have already happened.

It is quite a display of checkmate. Win or lose, obama wins. The nation loses. Whoever can leave will, many more will slide into government dependency. We are well on our way to being Greece, unless some other nation puts us out of our democrat misery first.

Have you examined the real voting record of Congressman Huelscamp or merely believing his side of the changing of the guard? He may not be telling you the entire story. Usually people who get a pink slip in a job they liked but poorly performed ignored good advice the first time and as a consequence lost their job. It likely put the Speaker in a difficult position at best. I've read Boehner. He's conservative, he has carefully tried to encourage the administration to stop spending money like a drunken sailor, and he's fighting two other major fronts as well--the insane press, all of who yap different scenarios at once--as well as the damage Hollywood has inflicted on America by advising ONLY Democrats on how to make bad look good and good look bad, fooling a lot of voters into going on their side.

When you have examined his record, come back and tell me if he isn't kind of sweeping a little something under the carpet that his boss Boehner cannot furnish to public notice as a wise conservator of America's resources. You're missing something. And only one side of this controversy is being given your full attention with no notice of the problem itself.

Obama doesn't need middle ground. He wins either way. It's just a bigger win if we go off the cliff.

Obama doesn't need middle ground. He wins either way. It's just a bigger win if we go off the cliff.

And the GOP is very intent on handing him that win.

It doesn't matter. obama wins no matter what the GOP does. If they agree, he's won. If we go off the cliff, he's won. It doesn't matter. As far as strategy does, this was masterful.
