When they come back in January, the House GOP needs to replace Boehner with someone like Ryan for Speaker. Likewise in the Senate, replace McConnell with Demint for Minority leader.

I don't at all like how this went down and it is Boehner’s and McConnell's fault. However, there will be other battles to fight and we need new LEADERSHIP in the House and Senate to fight going into the campaign season. Boehner and McConnell have shown, load and clear, that they are inept and incompetent in leadership roles.

This was bad but not as bad as that STUPID debt limit “deal” that lead to the “super committee” that did absolutely NOTHING. That was Boehner’s and McConnell's greatest example to date of incompetence.

someone like Ryan for Speaker

Ryan could have stopped this by speaking up when it came to the floor for a vote. He didn't. He's no better than Boehner or the rest of them. No one, not even the reps who allied themselves with the tea party, stood up against this stupidity. Beltway disease strikes again.
