Wake Up Mr. Boehner!
While
I’m not prepared to throw Boehner out on his ear just yet; I have
similar questions about the Speaker’s political method of operation. He
appealed to conservative voters for support and then turned his back on
that very support.
By Dell Hill
In
the beginning, I - like probably most of you - thought that John
Boehner would do a good job as Speaker of the House of Representatives.
After all, the bar he had to clear wasn’t set all that high to begin
with. His predecessor, Nancy Pelosi, had set all kinds of records for
incredibly stupid statements and actions. Boehner only needed to return
the post to something that resembled a modicum of sanity and he would
have been a success.
While
he hasn’t matched Pelosi’s record of stupid statements, his actions
have played right into the Democrat’s hand so many times I’m beginning
to wonder and re-evaluate his political ideology. What seemed like a
reasonable, conservative approach at first has caused me to think he’s
leaning more and more toward becoming a Clinton centrist Democrat.
Clinton
made his greatest headway as soon as he moved away from the left and
started capitulating the hard-line stance for a more moderate tone.
Boehner has done the exact same thing, only in the opposite direction.
Doug Ross takes a closer look and doesn’t like what he’s seeing:
“Consider the negotiating "skills" of House Speaker John Boehner:
•
Episode 1: The Continuing Resolution Charade, in which Boehner gives up
his trump card -- a government shutdown -- without a whimper
•
Episode 2: The Debt Ceiling Debacle, in which Boehner gives up his
trump card -- forcing the government to cut spending -- without a fight
•
Episode 3: The Case of the Balanced Budget Amendment That Wasn't, in
which Boehner hollows out the Cut-Cap-and-Balance pledge and tries to
pass a BBA that neither cuts or caps spending
•
Episode 4: Super-Committee Cowardice, in which Boehner names RINOs who
have no desire to battle the Left nor seriously cut spending
In 2012,
we conservatives must rise up and demand that either Michele Bachmann,
Paul Ryan or Allen West replace the cowardly, weak-willed,
big-government, cocktail-circuit Republican named John Boehner as House
Speaker.
We
don't have any time left for pathetic losers like Boehner and Eric
Cantor who refuse to fight for this country as the Marxist Left drags it
into an economic abyss.
I'm sick of these weaklings. And they need to go.”
Dell’s Note:
While
I’m not prepared to throw Boehner out on his ear just yet; I have
similar questions about the Speaker’s political method of operation. He
appealed to conservative voters for support and then turned his back on
that very support.
Are John Boehner’s memories of 2010 not that fresh?
Does John Boehner not know that we will keep kicking bad politicians to the curb?
Wake up, Mr. Boehner. The coffee’s on and it’s a strong conservative blend.
