Boehner on Cunningham show, "We fought the good fight, we just didn't win."
Radio News | 16 Oct 2013 | Jeff Head

Posted on 10/16/2013 12:15:38 PM PDT by Jeff Head

Just heard Boehner say this on the hourly news five minutes ago regarding the Senate compromise.

Hey John, THERE HASN'T BEEN A VOT IN THE HOUSE YET. You are deciding we didn't win when you can still defeat this compromise which gives us NOTHING!

Lead, help...or get the hell out of the way!

If you pass this with the Democrates and a minority of Republicans you need to be out as the GOP leader and Speaker of the House tomorrow.

The ruling Democrat-Republican Party has implemented their “progressive” un-American agenda for the past 100 years. Income tax, New Deal, Great Society, Commie-care, from Wilson to Obama, every step of the way guided by these “two” parties. The coup de grâce will be mass amnesty.

It’s them or us. They must be obliterated or the US will cease to exist.

He never even fought.

They don’t even know the definition of “fight.”

This issue is so serious and real to so many of us that they should have been having screaming matches and fistfights on the floor of the House and Senate on NATIONAL TV.

THAT would be “fighting.”

“He never intended to win.”

Bingo, I think you are spot on. He has acted like this was a distraction and a chore for him the whole time.

Bonehead has worked his deal with the devil Pelosi. What votes he loses
with conservatives, will be more than made up by RAT votes. Bonehead
does not know the meaning of a good fight.

That's exactly what they should do.

In fact the GOP should take the following line in my opinion in talking to Obama.

"Look, Barry, we have the votes to stop you cold and we have decided to do that.

"We control the government funduiing and we are going to exercuise that control.

"We are talking about a complete shutdown where not so much as a dime will be available for you to even heat the White House, so get ready to stay at the local Holiday Inn on your own dime for the dduration.

"the only thing we will fund during that time is the US military you hate so much.

"When you are ready to talk about seriously creating a budget...one that is balanced by the way, and reducing the debt...and we are talking about a true reduction in the actual amount we owe, not just a reduction in the percentage of your spending increases, and we are talking anout an end to ObamCare. When you are ready to seriously talk to us about those things...get back with us.

"Oh, BTW, Barry. One other thing we will fund is the following. The House of Reprentatives will meet each day with the express purpose of impeaching your sorry backside every single day for the next 60 working days. Impeach you each day on different charges. 60 times, Barry. When you get ready to talk to us, then the first thing the Senate will do will be to act on those 60 impeachments before anything else.

"So, we have the votes, and we are firm. Give us a call when you are ready to talk. Bye now."

That's the discussion a real Speaker of the House should be having with Obama.

did you forget the State controlled media?.....they decided this issue...not once did I hear what the pubs wanted articulated by the media, which was not defunding bammy care, only making the individual mandate delayed a year, like the big corportations, and making congress join bammey care...

when the media is controlled by the rats, the pubs will always be blamed....

that's why I wish rich pubs would buy televised media and radio stations....but they won't.....they like their riches and won't win one for the gipper....

frankly, I don't even know if we have any "rich" pubs...seems they throw in with the rats alot, because, they get so much in return....

well here's a new national strategy....become Amish, or some other religion and not be required to do the mandate....let bammycare starve....

There re plenty of them who are not cowards. It’s the insider leadership and the RINOs who need to go.

We haven't lost yet, either, except in your mind. And Obama hasn't won yet, either. You can give up on immigration, or you can fight. I know what I'll do.

The GOP surrendered for no reason. They have the power, they just don’t have the will to use it.

Unfortunately, immigration has likely already been decided just like defunding of Obamacare. The ‘fight’ part is theater while the signing of a bill into law is reality. Obamacare of real, the fight to defund it wasn’t, Boehner made that clear today.

So, next January when all this budget stuff comes up again, is Bohner going to put his foot down and get some concessions out of Harry Reed and Obama? Of course not, next January is next year and next year is an election year.
