You think donations are down now..wait until limp noodle Boehner gets done. All tax deductions for charitable contributions are to be eliminated (in Obama’s jobs bill)...of course that only applies to you battards making above 200K.

Weeee. it’s exciting to see our foundation destroyed.

It would kill all non profits. Many arts museums will also have to close.

I find it endlessly annoying that, with all of the things that this administration is doing to us, all some people can find to bitch about is boehner.

“with all of the things that this administration is doing to us, all some people can find to bitch about is boehner.”

Obama can’t do much without the House going along, or did you miss that in your High School Government class?

I don’t often listen to Mark Levin, but I listened this past week. He went after Boehner hammer and tong, for negotiating from a position of weakness [when he didn’t have to] and for caving prematurely/unnecessarily on positions worth taking a stand on and fighting for.

Is Levin now on your bad books too?

There is zero indication the House is going to go along with that proposal.

In fact, if our party would quit trying to convince people Rick Perry wants to kill pre-teen girls and would get back to focusing on Obama, we could destroy this bill in the court of public opinion right before we destroy it in the House.

I can’t remember the details but I have a vague recollection of stories from a few years back that FOTF was making some troubling concessions once Dobson stepped down. I don’t know what came of it but if that was happening it may not just be the economy that is an issue here.

It still has good programming, but it is all family/marriage, having they moved out Dobson and the salt and steel behind the compassion that he expressed, and no longer really pro-actively oppose the political immoral forces.

He’s the weak link JB. He believes that compromising is a ‘good’ thing. I don’t know about you or your beliefs, but I didn’t vote for the people I did in Nov to ‘get along’. I voted to STOP and REPEAL the marxist agenda. Boehner seems to think compromise is the way to go. Of course he would since his ‘ox’ isn’t being gord.

Wake up...

I'm not particularly fond of the man, either. but I heaved a HUGE sigh of relief when he took the speaker's gavel from nancy pelosi. I tend to remember the "coulda beens".

As is evidenced by his dismal failures, Crybaby Boehner cares little about "the court of public opinion". As long as the elites, on both sides of the aisle, support him, he'll shove it in the face of American citizens.
