Word to the wise: House members, you represent your constituents- not Obama, the MSM, Harry Reid, or Crybaby Boehner...

Cantor, Bonehead and Rogers mentioned in this article are all from states the GOP did not carry.

Our message to our reps need to be clear. If Boehner folds in this, we are sitting home in 2014. If he doesn’t stand up for the positions we elected our reps to promote, he needs to be replaced as Speaker.

He's like Romney: viciously attack members of your own party when it serves you, and then French kiss your opponents at the most inopportune time.

Poor Boehner, courtiers must appease their Democrat Lords. The street rabble must be kept under control. Our Illinois Republicans learned that a long time ago.

If Boehner folds in this Remember, Boehner didn't fold in the last talks.
In fact, he walked out on Obama when Obama brought up tax hikes.
Obama then tried to call Boehner but the Speaker did NOT take Obama's calls which infuriated Obama.
To: ilgipper
"Our message to our reps need to be clear. If Boehner folds in this, we are sitting home in 2014."
No. We need to be even better organized to take out every Republican that votes for this in the next primaries. I don't care if they call themselves "Tea Party" members, or not. They need to go.

Boehner acknowledged that his party would be willing to accept “new revenue” — code for tax increases The MSM inserts this in just about every story to try to enrage the right.
But closing loopholes has been on the conservative wishlist (simplifying the tax code) for decades.
To: Qbert
It rankles that Boehner uses ten times the coercion on Republicans than he would ever use on Democrats.
