"It’s open warfare against conservatives. Idiots.

Bump!

[dfwgator]

They already do.

[freerepublicchat]

Before the effort to redefine marriage, I had no problem with gay candidates or people that were in gay relationships. Live and let live, I thought.

Now my blood boils.

[Vaduz]

His worth has become nil.

Well, John, you'd better be careful. If you start supporting homosexuals for office, people might think you like being around them.

Come to think of it, the constant tan, the crying, the wimpyness... Hmmm.

[mj1234]

no Doubt!!—

what a crying loooooser-

how did he ever get to be the speaker of the House!?

How did O’bummer get to be prez-
How did Biden ever get to be Veep
How did Pelosi ever...

Never mind... Boner fits right in

Boehnner is hopelessly lost. Regardless of one’s position on homosexuality or the sexuality of candidates, Boehnner is on permanent defense. He’s a tragically terrible leader and has been his entire term. If any statement needs to be made at all, it is simply...a persons sexuality has absolutely no bearing at all on the success of their candidacy. If they have the right principles and views, I’d support them unconditionally’. Frankly, nothing needs to be said at all, but if he had to respond to a question, it should be along these lines.

Personally, I work with some great people who are gay and are good at their job, regardless of what they do in their personal life. That’s the end of the story in politics, too.

He must be going for the *compassionate* sad puppy award from the media.

[Iron Munro]

It’s a pretty strong claim Boehner is an alcoholic, along with now being a whiny, incompetent, homo infatuated wuss.

[cdcdawg]

Maybe he thinks that in doing so, he could relinquish the title of being the most emotional member of his own caucus. I still say it’s a longshot.

[Breto]

You know what would be a real change for the GOP.... support conservative candidates

or just pander.... whatever, I don’t care what the GOP does anymore they are not the answer they ar part of the problem.

[TexasCajun]

I WOULD NOT shake the hand of a Male Homosexual Deviate!!

In the age of Algores Internet, every knows the filthy anal practices of male homosexuales.

If I wouldn't shake their hand, why would I want to support them.

[Darren McCarty]

Whether a candidate is a homo or not is none of my business. If a guy blanks blanks, I don’t need to know about it. I really don’t want to know. Can the candidate do the job and vote correctly or not?

[skinkinthegrass]

"I do."OK...so John *HIC!* Boehner finally showed why, he supports pResident
0'Blahblah..."birds of a feather, flock together"..I guess.

[A. Morgan]

Speaker John Boehner continues in his efforts to move the Republican party to the left. This is his answer to almost every issue.

[Leaning Right]

Boehner is like a boxer who manages to hit himself every time he throws a punch.

[Sgt_Schultze]

I thought we weren’t supposed to care about what people do in private. Why do I have to appreciate somebody’s alternative sexual preferences?

[Colonel_Flagg]

"That’s the end of the story in politics, too."

Not when that person's views affect my life and family. The candidate I support will be pro-traditional family and pro-traditional marriage.

"If they have the right principles and views, I’d support them unconditionally"

With respect, how is homosexuality a 'right principle' or a 'right view'?

[rollo tomasi]

Boehner is going full money-hat mode it seems.



I guess the big "gay" donors are telling the GOP to "dance" first before stuffing the hat.
