I've said from the get-go that Boehner has been/is/will be a disaster for the GOP as Speaker and being compared to Dole is not glowing praise. Obviously, I am not the only one who has a negative view of the "crybaby" as Speaker. Where does the GOP get such men and why does the GOP keep putting them in leadership positions? Boehner being Speaker is one reason why the GOP is the "stupid party."

How do We The People encourage him to step down due to his spineless, gutless incompetence?

I wouldn’t care if he cried a whole Potomac a day, if he would just LEAD while he’s doing it.

Good question. I have called my Congressman, Jeb Hensarling, and expressed my opinion, for what it’s worth.

Speaking of "Suits"...

If this guy's the RNC nominee, I sit out 2012 as a voter. Or write in my cat's name.

Too many of the GOP leadership are of the ‘go along to get along’ variety.

They maintained minority status for so many decades that they don’t know how to ‘lead’ rather than follow or go along with the status quo.

Boehner should begin his rehabilitation by subpoenaing Obama's birth records. That's an issue everyone understands.

Any which way you can. All these people care about is money so I use that against them.

I get tons of telemarketing calls from The RNC and other Republican organizations asking for money.

I tell them all the same thing. I only send money to individual Republicans that I think are representing me. I don't want a dime of my money going to Lindsey Graham, Olympia Snowe or Susan Collins or any other RINO.

The next call I get I will specifically mention Boehner.

Steyn has a way with words.

Very disappointed. I’ve been defending Boehner. I even learned to spell his name.

How is it possible to sit in the Speaker’s chair and not have a plan and a loud voice, LEADING the charge to slash spending and shut down Obama’s agenda?

I’m betting he’s operating under threat of blackmail.
These egoists believe the dirt won’t be leaked anyway.
Confess, destroy their leverage, and LEAD!

Make that “the Bob Michel suit”.

Boehner is fully Washingtonized. He needs to be replaced, pronto.

John Boehner should therefore either take some political Viagra or be relegated to doing Viagra commercials.
