This didn’t start with Boehner. During the lame duck session, when all the R’s had to do was wait it out, the dems were able to do a scorched-earth campaign.
I do believe there are threats. But I don’t believe they began or end with Boehner. Soros has something he is holding over the heads of both the blue-dog democrats who have been falling on their swords in an unprecedented way for the past 2 years AND over the heads of even people who have proven their conservative mettle over the years, which can be seen most clearly by the way they allowed the scorched-earth congress even when there was no political price to be paid for resisting at that point. The next election is 2 years away, and for most of them even farther than that. It was not politics that got them to give in. There is something more going on.
The more I see, the more I think Soros has this nation hostage under the threat of another run on the bank like the one that he and his Islamist allies orchestrated in September of 2008 to overcome Palin’s effect on the polls and get Obama elected.
As long as Obama is in office nothing serious will be done to get rid of our financial vulnerability. It is our financial vulnerability that keeps the judges and media quiet about Obama’s eligibility and keeps Congress from doing anything to fix the mess. It’s a vicious circle Soros has us in. He’s shown the leaders that he has the power to break our economy. He says if we don’t let Obama stay in power he will pull the trigger. If we leave Obama in power he will kill America’s infrastructure and make sure that Soros keeps his power to break our economy.
We are in a huge, huge mess. The republicans had the biggest landslide in this country’s history, and for the 2 months of lame-duck Congress after that landslide R’s gave away everything including the kitchen sink. We are not dealing with normal electoral politics. That should be clear to everybody.
That should be clear to everybody.
That may be an understatement. We may not be dealing at all with a functional electoral process. Especially given that top Republicans, even the most conservative, view any question of O's lack of eligibility to be a "distraction". Our nation could have a fraud in office, even a anti-American political operative, and they are too frightened to defend the Constitution.
Clinton may have received some political value when she threw her 900 FBI files on the table during negotiations with the O machine, but now the socialists own the FBI.
Any Russian "specialists" who serve on the Soros security detail certainly are not any better than ours.
Excellent comments here on “Steyn disappointed in Gop..Boehner.” Also on “Barack Obama is a Muslim..” Keep up the good work.
