Speaker Boehner: Obama has 'never even had a real job, for God's sake' By Justin Sink - 08/02/12 03:21 PM ET
House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) lashed out at President Obama during an interview Tuesday, saying the president has "never even had a real job, for God's sake."
Boehner was discussing the presidential election, and accusing President Obama's campaign team of using "over-the-top" rhetoric to distract from his economic record.
"Sometimes I have to catch my breath and slow down because the rhetoric in this campaign is just so over-the-top," Bohener said during an appearance on "Kilmeade and Friends." "And that's because the president's policies have failed. Listen — 93 percent of Americans believe they're a part of the middle class. That's why you hear the president talk about the middle class every day, because he's talking to 93 percent of the American people."
Then the Ohio lawmaker lit into the president's qualifications to discuss job creation.
"But the president has never created a job. He's never even had a real job, for God's sake," Boehner said. "And I can tell you from my dealings with him, he has no idea how the real world, that we actually live in, works."
In the same interview, Boehner blasted Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) for his suggestion on the Senate floor Thursday that Mitt Romney paid no federal income taxes for a decade.
"I don't know how you go out there and make a statement like that without any facts," Boehner said. "It's one of the problems that occurs here in Washington, people run out there without any facts and just make noise. The American people are too smart for this, they'll get to the bottom of this, it clearly is not a fact, and I would think that the Senate majority leader would be smart enough to know that."
Boehner.............3 1/2 years late, and a dollar short.
What planet did I just wake up on?
Must have had a shot of T.
Way to go, RINObonehead.
Occasionally, just like a stopped watch, you actually stumble on the correct conclusion.
Well, the election IS coming up, so the posturing is pretty much S.O.P.
The RNC got and delivered a little message the other week. They are required to become more aggressive now. How aggressive? We will see.
It pains me to have to explain this to you, Mr Speaker, but they do what they do because they want to win.
They don't want to compromise, get along, work together. They would rather lie, cheat & smear to have their way.
They want to win.
I thought he worked at Chick Fil A ? No? Wait, I know, the little prick had a summer job at Baskin Robbins. Oh, yeah, and then he became president of the United States. . . .
You couldnt make this stuff up.
Uhhh.....six trillion short...
But who’s counting?
The only take-away I have from Boehner’s behavior is that TPTB have decided Obamao is a loser and it’s time to complete the co-opting of Romney.
Boehner yukked it up with Charlie (Tax Cheat) Wrangel at a soiree in Charlie’s honor after the ethics committee hearings. Reprehensible.
They all have so much dirt on each other that it is Mutually Assured Destruction if they break with the statist marching orders. Boehner’s slight break is perhaps a precursor of the disavowal of the Won on a larger scale.
They do what they do and say what they say because they get a free pass. Where are the Republicans out there telling Dingy Harry to put up or shut up?
“Hmm... okay, wait a minute. Am I actually watching Republicans grow a spine and... fight... BACK????”
Kinda reminds me of the Al Pacino (Lt Col Frank Slade) line in Scent of a Woman: “No time to grow a d*** son!”
Texas happened...
Didn’t our once future Messiah previously work at a Baskin Robbins?
Often it is not so much a matter of spine nor conviction, but a matter of hoping to save their political career.
” I thought he worked at Chick Fil A ? No? Wait, I know, the little prick had a summer job at Baskin Robbins. Oh, yeah, and then he became president of the United States. . . .”
He worked at Baskin Robbins for 2 weeks, and was fired.
Probably for giving free ice cream to his homies. In one of his books, he states “ I didn’t like working for the enemy, anyway”
But will they remain aggressive after the votes have been cast or will they return to their old spineless ways and “reach across the aisle”?
” Boehner yukked it up with Charlie (Tax Cheat) Wrangel at a soiree in Charlie’s honor after the ethics committee hearings. Reprehensible.”
Did you see the picture of a (VISIBLY DRUNK) Boehner sitting
with, and laughing with Obama after a golf game? It has been posted here often.
Obama understands none of this because he's never experienced it. He called his first employer "the enemy." I wonder how long that job lasted. . . would love to see his performance reviews. . He doesn't understand we are the greatest country on earth and it got that way because of Judeo-Christian values, a mighty work ethic, and free enterprise free market capitalism. Obama wants to tear it down, piece by piece with more and bigger government. Government doesn't work, it just restricts. . . November 6, 2012.
BINGO.
Ted Cruz' trouncing of the anointed GOP-e drone, David Dewhurst, sent a chilling message throughout the establishment: Do NOT mess with the Tea Party!
When Sarah Palin stepped onstage in South Texas and endorsed Ted Cruz for US Senate, Dick Cheney tried to undermine that by making a disparaging remark about her in a radio interview. His own daughter came out the next day and slapped the stupid out of his mouth for doing that.
Now we suddenly see Boehner finding the remnants of his spine, and the Romney campaign stepping up their aggression against Obama. To top it all off, Obama's new found support for gay 'marriage' (which has already cost him support among black Christian voters) was repudiated and thoroughly rejected by the historic Aug 1st mobbing of Chick-fil-A restaurants across the country.
You've gotta love this momentum.
