I’ve tried for a hour to leave a comment on John Boehner’s website to STEP UP or STEP DOWN! It is freezing up so I am hoping that zillions of Pubbies are leaving him their sentiments!

Just two questions that are on my mind. How do we get rid of Boehner as Speaker? And won’t the media at some point also be hit by Barry’s wrecked economy...surely colleagues, family and friends will lose jobs, struggle with higher taxes, suffer Obamacare, etc.

Before you call again, take a look at what you have: 1. A minority of house members who will do the right thing for America (a majority will cave). 2. A supreme court that is the most frightened since FDR and just caved in to a plan to destroy the private health care industry.

Now look at what they have: 1. majority American support. 2. senate with a finger on the nuclear button 3. all of the media 4. a president with lots of "flexibility" who pisses on the constitution and is waiting for an excuse to use his own nuclear options.

Your solution: tell Boehner to tip over the negotiating table and lose to the media outrage.

The right solution: talk about generalities, agree on some publicly and disagree on others. Wait with an "open mind" for the specific offer. A serious offer won't come until the Senate is pressured by their corporate interests to negotiate with Boehner. Hopefully that will take us to the cliff and beyond because that will get us the best offer.
