Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, asked for his reaction to the resignation of John Boehner, had good things to say about the House Speaker:

"We'll have to see how it plays out," Bush told "Fox News Sunday" with Chris Wallace. "I admire John Boehner greatly. He's a great public servant. He left at the apex of his--of his time in service to this--to the country, with the Pope speaking in Congress.

"I think people are going to miss him in the long run, because he's a -- he's a person that is focused on solving problems."

Asked if Boehner's departure is good or bad for conservatives," Bush said he's not sure:

"I think what we need is a conservative president that can work with the Congress. We wouldn't have these problems if you had a president that actually would commit to passing a budget, would commit to a -- you know, repealing Obamacare, reforming our taxes."

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) also praised Boehner on Sunday: "John Boehner is a very fine person," Pelosi told CNN's "State of the Union" with Jake Tapper. "I don't know if I'll miss him," she added. "It depends on what comes next."

Pelosi said Boehner's resignation "is a sign of the disarray in the Republican Party."

What is that sound I hear?

It sounds kind of like a chicken: “cluck, cluck, cluck.”

But it's more like “cuck, cuck, cuck.”

It's weird, but I hear that sound whenever Yeb! opens his mouth.

And it doesn't matter if he's speaking Spanish or English.

"Pelosi said Boehner's resignation "is a sign of the disarray in the Republican Party."
Just the opposite, evil one, it shows that the angry public is coming for the Establishment. "

Actually, and it pains me to type this, I think Pelosi is right. The Party is in disarray. The elites have lost control of the message, the masses are finally having our say and the elites are throwing various levels of conniption over it.
