The people are not letting up, and the politicians are being moved.

Good news. Maybe Boehner finally realizes that Obama’s goal is either to shut down the House or to render it useless.

That’s a very good point. This really is a coup by the imperial presidency in all but name.

You better believe citizens are mobilized (in writing, calling their representatives).

Dear House,

Hold The Line!

Maybe he finally realized that “fundamentally transforming America” means exterminating the GOP.

Dirty Harry releasing the e-mails probably helped to stiffen Mr. Boehner’s resolve, not decrease it.

Perhaps he figured out that the nation’s future matters to him in some way.

Things are getting crazy.

I don't think I can remember the last time something so controversial went on nationwide and yet completely escaped MSM scrutiny.

I've been hoping for just that to be the case. Some people can witness another stab people in the back all day and not believe they're backstabbers, until they themselves get stabbed.

Good. Very good.

I think we can trust this to be accurate if Rep. bachmann said it.

Obama is a psychopath and acts essentially like a boulder rolling down a hill.

The only way to stop his actions is to present a big enough logjam which forces him to stop, not just slow down.

We can't be afraid of what he might do. He will only do what we let him do.

The goal is to yank Power-of-the-Purse from the House, and tack it onto the Executive.
