Why didn’t Boehner send the letter to Mylee Cyrus? He’d have gotten as comprehensive an answer.
Don’t hold yer breath John-O.
Obama wants to destroy Israel, which is what stirring the Syrian pot is all about.
High level executives sending memos back and forth instead of resolving contentious issues face to face
Because this letter is for OUR benefit. It's meant to be seen by us.
It may not sound very ‘harsh’, but everything has to go on paper, and having the attached 116 signatures helps. It shows solidarity that he is not being given a pass, for once.
“I respectfully request that you, as our country’s commander-in-chief, personally make the case to the American people and Congress for how potential military action will secure American national security interests, preserve America’s credibility, deter the future use of chemical weapons, and, critically, be a part of our broader policy and strategy. In addition, it is essential you address on what basis any use of force would be legally justified and how the justification comports with the exclusive authority of Congressional authorization under Article I of the Constitution. “
Anyway, it’s a start.
Expect the Speaker to get stiffed.
Again.
Just as the world does not respect the Current Occupant of the White Hut, The Won in turn does not respect the Speaker.
And for similar reasons. Nobody likes a shirk.
Tell ya what speaker, get a spine, go on national tv and tell the American people that we are not going to start a BS war on BS information that has nothing to do with this country. Tell us on national tv that if the presidential failure acts without authorization you will impeach. Until then SHUDUP
I get it.
It's nothing more than a high level CYA.
Nothing is actuall put on the line and the letter accomplishes nothing.
Someday down the line, Boehner gets to say "Here's the proof I was concerned at the time."
Because this letter is for OUR benefit. It’s meant to be seen by us.
No. I can’t recall such a pointed, direct letter to the kenyan from Boehner. This is a rare event, unfortunately.
I think Boehner is PO’d the kenyan had some staffer call him up to “discuss” bombing Syria.
We will see what happens now when the White Hut ignores the letter. Anything that the GOP does to directly engage the kenyan is a good thing. I am no fan of Boehner but think the dumping on Boehner in this thread is a bit unfair at this point. Let’s wait and see what happens.
A letter? A whole, entire letter? Sounds John Wayne to ME-ee. Who woulda thought he would have sent a WHOLE letter?
Did his tears make the ink run?
yet the bonehead won't appoint a special committee to investigate Benghazi, the IRS, or any other crime the obozo is involved in and the fact that the obozo is clearly on the side of the MBH leaves the bonehead suspect of his own loyalty to America. Mr. Bonehead, your ass or the obozo's ass is not worth the damage you two and this entire administration are doing to this country.
Well, we haven’t even got a letter out of Bonehead to the kenyan on the IRS/NSA/DOJ/ETC. abuses. Baby steps...
He sent a LETTER!!!! Ooooooo, that’s very scary! I’ll bet Obama read it with great consternation and soiled his shorts. Not. I had it a long time ago with Boehner and his ilk. Its gotten to the point where I’m not really sure who’s worse, Obama or the Boehners. After all, Obama is supposed to be an America hating POS, and Boehner is supposed to oppose him.
It will be an invitation to play another round of golf together.
Thanks Tailgunner Joe.

The letter was sent certified. Boehner means business!!!!!
The only thing Boehner is sure of is that "The Sequester will remain in effect!" He said this 10 days ago, but he won't acknowledge that the Sequester is gutting the military. Before the elections he SAID it would, but then he allowed it to happen anyway.
The GOP has abandoned the military, and yet they wonder why they are clueless.
Is this the strongly worded letter that follows the proverbial line drawn in the sand?
Stiffed? With due respect, Bonehead is the speaker of the GOP controlled house.
What is preventing him from calling a vote?
John - STAWP!
STAWP with the dam sternly worded letters
Call back the Congress from vacation
Hold public hearings on this
and DEMAND the REAL intelligence from the US AND the UN
Listen to the Brit Intelligence- they don’t have the same urgency to wipe the egg off obama’s face that America is being forced to endure
in the meantime, have a sitdown with LTC (ret) Ralph Peters who has been hitting it out of the ballpark as a FOX News military analyst
