Why should we believe him now? After he’s already folded?

Boehner’s now tough talk is an attempt to save his speakership at tomorrow’s vote.

"Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) is signaling that at least one thing will change about his leadership during the 113th Congress: He’s telling Republicans he is done with private, one-on-one negotiations with President Obama. "

WOW! This guy's a genius!

John didn’t see the Obama bus with other previously used and discarded figures underneath, did he?

We need a non-crying, strong, pricipled MALE type person as speaker...maybe Michelle Bachmann!

She's certainly got more fight in her than Johnny the Jellyfish..

testicles suddenly descending?

Unlikely. More like a desperate attempt to save his precious speaker spot.

Let's hope the few real congressmen see through the BS.

He’s too weak, but likely not too weak to resign.
Weeper of the House.

Just have a good cry, John and it'll be all good.

Maybe you'll even be speaker again,... as a DemoRat.

-— As part of the fiscal cliff package, the Speaker replied: “Things that you want in life tend to come with a cost.” -—

Zzzzzzzzz...

Let’s assume Johnnie is telling the truth, should he be speaker even though he never got barry was lying?
Seriously, how can anyone be that stupid?

Won’t defend Boner, but just imagine trying to conduct an honest negotiation with a drugged out street hustler who could care less. Note the asshole flew back to Hawaii (costing us more the $7MIL) and didn’t even bother to sign the GD ripoff bill everyone else was in such a big hurry to pass.

Yep. And that is the real issue. If he retains his speakership, the only
thing he will lead now is a wipe-out of The GOP in 2014.
Give someone else the chance to unite the party.
Like u said, he is a lame duck.

How many times has he done this? What’s the old saying? “Fool me once. . . .”

Not even a jerk like Boner could make the same mistake a hundred times in a row. Ergo, it was deliberate.

So, he has just now figured out that Obama is a liar and has been playing him off against the Conservatives in his own caucus.

Time to go, you foolish man...
