Loved everything Michele said tonight. So much for all the BS about her caving or wanting the GOP to deal. Of course Boehner can afford her 'no' vote...

RE :”i simply refuse to play ‘lucy and the football’ anymore...i didnt expect much out of these political/negotiations/compromises and therefore i wont be disappointed...business as usual, at least until We the People reclaim our place of authority...

Jeeze, Boehner pushed TARP on his members in fall 2008 so compared to that he looks like Braveheart here with this crappy deal. Of course many others here who say this is the end of the world thought TARP was a great idea and still defend it.

Yeah, they’ve got to put away FY2011 ASAP and get focused on Ryan’s FY2012 plan.

No, the deal has been made for passing the 2011 budget next week, as soon as they write down the details. Then it is on to the 2012 budget, the on with the $6 Trillion + 10 year cuts. That must be passed by October 1.

The CR has passed the House”
— Yes No NV
GOP 208 28 5
Dem 140 42 10
Tot 348 70 15

But I Can totally see Boehner caving in, you can just see it in his nature, he’s a good guy but he has this wuss attitude

He's just not suited for that job. He's a behind the scenes Lieutenant type and apparently is likable. Great. But that's not what is needed in that job. We need a warrior not a bureaucrat.

Geeze... I did this in 45 minutes flat, but did not beat the midnight stroke!

“Obama, Gonna Shut you Down” (Sung to Beach Boys ‘Shut You Down’) — A TCH Parody Production

Pack it up, Pack it up …
Obama, gonna shut you down!

They’re gonna have a fit, if their vote is tied …
(Who eff’d it up now?)
Two fool dorks standin’ side by side …
(Who eff’d it up now?)
Yeah, the news threatens doomsday, and our fortune’s reamed …
(Who eff’d it up now?)
Rippin’ up our nation is their poundin theme …
(Who eff’d it up now?)
Pack it up, Pack it up,
Obama, gonna shut you down!

Declinin’ dollars and uneven trade …
(Oooo movin’ out now)
As the counts runs down we’ll be third-world rate …
(Oooo movin’ out now)
High interest hikes, the pricks are startin’ to spin …
(Oooo movin’ out now)
But Boehner n Reid really diggin’ in …
(Oooo movin’ out now)
Better be true now, Boehner should fear TEA votes!

Scoop-jock Drudge is watchin the show;
“Got my crew projectin when they’ll be startin’ to vote” …
To get some traction, Ryan’s ridin’ that putz:
High pressure makes certain that Reid’s in Dutch!

Rebels on the floor hear the news and wink …
(Who’s the chump up now?)
And now the four-term Reid is startin’ to blink …
(Who’s the chump up now?)
He bought his damn election, but it’s understood …
(Who’s the chump up now?)
We got a cool collected Bachman makin’ her word good!
(Who’s the chump up now?)

Cut it off, Cut it off … Obama , gonna shut you down …
Cut it off, Cut it off … Obama , gonna shut you down …
Cut it off, Cut it off … Obama , gonna shut you down …
Cut it off, Cut it off … Obama , gonna shut you down …
Cut it off, Cut it off … Obama , gonna shut you down …

John Boehner is a traitorous, butt-licking coward. We all need to did deep to organize BIG money, and kick his pantie-wasted crybaby’s ass straight down the political crapper ... Where he can float along comfortably with the other turds.

Michelle Bachmann...she's terrific, articulate, straightforward, politically experienced/knowledgeable, and she has the fire in her belly to fight AND win. I feel the same about Ron Paul..he just needs to ramp it up a little emotionally..he needs to acquire some of the drive and visual energy Ronald Reagan displayed. Couldn't be prouder of either of these patriots.

It’s the only way for leftists to make fake friends. It sure isn’t their charming personalities.
