Priceless.

It is effective to read the actual words. No one has to take your ‘word’ for it.

He's doing what the other Republicans should have done today. Dissect this bill bit by bit.

I don't agree. It reminds me of Bob Dole. He wasted so much time on minutae instead of naming the scientists who deny AGW and ridiculing the fraud of the SCIENCE. Also he is not mentioning how the "Saudi" argument is irrelevant, since this is all about electricity, and we get almost none of that from oil. What about the facts that WE are the Saudi Arabia of coal, and how the Democrats want to leave all that wealth in the ground! How China and India are laughing at us and will never adopt cap and trade and will suck up what remains of our industrial jobs? What about the fact that New Zealand, one of the first to enact cap and trade, is now dismantling it, with Australia about to do the same?

" John Boehner is so damn ineffective. Droning on and on reading sections instead of a prepared rhetorically-strong list of arguments.

You've got to be kidding or something. (I won't say what) He has people listening! He is taking this stuff apart and he is VERY effective!

He is doing the equivalent of a congressional filibuster. Get educated.

I think it is VERY effective. Page by page, line by line shooting down everything that was dropped in last night that people haven’t had a chance to read yet.

This bill passing could trigger a significant secession movement and a fracturing of the country. You have to wonder if that is its real purpose?

TROLL.

NO. Read my comment #429...this is minutae, which numbs the brains of Americans. Stick with the BIG PICTURE...this is a scientific fraud that has nothing to do with oil and everything to do with coal, nuclear and jobs. What is the GOP so afraid to take on Al Gore and the AGW mafia?

"i think within 6 months, the people will turn on the democrats...i think they know that so they are going to shove all this stuff up our backside as fast as they can"

I've wondered if that wasn't the plan from the start:
O'B acts like he does not believe he'll be there at the end of four.
Or two.

He’s kicking the living shit out of them by reading their own stupid words.

It’s a time honored method or rhetorical warfare.

Ridicule is a very effective weapon,
