I can't figure out what is going on....

The House of Reps could stop Zer0's adm in its tracks by just not funding their programs. There is something here that I clearly do not understand.....

.....it just may boil down to the fact Boehner just don't think the situation is so dire and he is not willing to take on the flack which would storm his way from the libs & MSM.

Boehner really needs to be replaced.

The business of the Progressives is to keep on making mistakes. The business of the Conservatives is to not correct the mistakes.

You’re right. There has been talk ever since Obamacare passed that we could defund it. But realistically, the House will not use their power over the nation’s checkbook to accomplish anything.

And now we see the liberals starting to say that the GOP can’t refuse to increase the debt ceiling, because money has already been spent, yadda, yadda, yadda, and children won’t be vaccinated, seniors won’t get Social Security checks, yadda, yadda, yadda.

Unfortunately, the GOP and conservatives have to battle both the Democrats and the media narrative. Democrats only have to do battle with Republicans.

Heck, Obama won both elections by narrow margins. Would he have won at all without such fawning coverage from the media???? That coverage may well have tipped the balance.

Obama acts like he has some mandate, but winning 51-49% is hardly an overwhelming vote of confidence.

I agree with you that Boehner needs to be replaced,but I disagree that he doesn’t think the situation is so dire. What I can’t figure out is why... Is he just incompetent? Doesn’t he realize he has the power to stop a lot of these evil plots? Or is he in secret agreement with everything that’s happening and that is why he does nothing? Whatever the reason, he needs to go and now! He is the worst Speaker in my memory. Say what you will about his predecessors, including Pelosi, they were effective. He really hasn’t done much at all in his tenure.

Worth repeating.

Or ..

The nation is screwed.

There are enough enemies in Congress to keep the slow leak leaking ... eventually sinking the ship.

Idisagree....The pubbies are fighting the White House and the MSM....Frontal attacks will be turned on the Republicans....by the Media.

And the low level info voters will take their cue from the Media and the Dems have proven they can mobilize them.....

So the Pubbies need to move slowly and force the media to get these Scandals on the Front pages....

I think that is the only hop;e.

I think the water needs a higher temperature ...near boiling ....then we should have a Select Committee.

Special Prosecuters are Deadly for slowing things down and they can go off in wild directions.
