But you are expressing disappointments from observations taken last January. I don’t believe Boehner had violated the Hastert Rule until yesterday.
You may consider there are some very rough characters that are working and threatening behind the scenes. Boehner has remarked on at least one occasion that requests from tea party members was ‘dangerous’. There is no question in my mind that he is a coward and that most of the ruling class politicians are cowards and that they are controlled.
Still Boehner needs to go and soon.
