Conservatives talk a good game, but none will step up to challenge
Bonehead to stop this insanity. They are as much to blame as Bonehead.

Actually, they did the same thing last year:
http://blogs.rollcall.com/218/secret-doc-fix-deal-angers-rank-and-file-video/
“Republican leaders struck a closed-door agreement with Democrats to pass the bill by voice vote while members were not yet in the chamber, according to members and aides from both parties.”

95 percent of the GOP rank and file elected Boehner their leader and then most of them turn around and make tough sounding conservative speeches, attack Obama and so on, vote “No” on bills that will pass anyway with Democrat support.

REGARDLESS OF HOW THOSE 200 PLUS RANK AND FILE REPUBLICAN MEMBERS VOTE ON CERTAIN BILLS AND REGARDLESS OF THE CONSERVATIVE WORDS THAT COME OUT OF THEIR MOUTHS, THEIR VOTES FOR BOEHNER AS LEADER TELL ME THEY ARE NOT REAL CONSERVATIVES.

A third party is an absolute necessity to finally define who the real conservatives are in this country.

Working hard

Oh Ye of little faith! If you only knew how hard our man in Congress is working. He will find the answer if he has to has to go into every bar in Georgetown! He will not cease until every brand on every bartender's top shelf has been tested for compliance with the Pure Food and Drug Act. Ted Kennedy is gone. Condit is gone. Kasich has gone domestic. Who's left? It's a dirty job, but someone must, must I say, do it.

Be proud that it is one of our men. The fact that the death of Boehner's liver will probably coincide with the death of our Republic, when viewed in scientific context, is merely a side effect.

Never mind the voters, who achieved the two midterm victories.

They push all the savings and cost cutting into the future, so they don’t have to deal with it now. So that when the future becomes the present, they could renege on the previous deal. We don’t even have to wait 10 years for them to break their promose. They reneged on the previous year budget fight already.

Boehner has dropped all pretense of promoting a Republican opposition. He has gone rogue. If the Republican Congress bows down to this, it is all over; the November election has been nullified and Obama won by a landslide.

If a politician promises something ten years down the road, you now it won’t happen like the GOP malarkey about balancing the budget.

Joe Stalin used to promise a better life to his slaves in the USSR in five years with “Five Year Plans”.

Why complain about Boehner? Conservatives should first ask their “conservative, tea party” rep why he/she voted to elect Boehner as speaker. That treacherous act negates any kind of conservative dance they do afterwords.
