It is time to face facts!
Speaker of the House John Boehner will go down in history as the worst Speaker in the last century, if not ever, as he refuses to do what is the right thing to do–pass a continuing resolution, with support of reasonable Republicans and opposition Democrats, to reopen the government, and stop trying to destroy ObamaCare, a law that has been held constitutional by the Supreme Court!
Boehner has allowed the 40 or so Tea Party Republicans to hold him, and the nation, hostage, and the effect will be to undermine the government and the economy long term!
Boehner so wants to remain Speaker, that he is willing to destroy the nation’s stability and security to do so, and his lack of patriotism, to do what must be done, whether it affects him in a negative fashion or not, shows how self centered, uncaring, and ill equipped he is to be two heartbeats away from the Presidency under the Presidential Succession Act of 1947!
Effectively, Boehner is promoting anarchism, a loss of faith in the purposes of government on the part of the American people, and undermining all hopes for an economic recovery, and his name in history will be seen as a dark moment of lack of courage and principle, in favor of personal ambition and ego and greed!
Ironically, he will be deposed for sure by the Tea Party Movement, which is using him for their own aggrandizement, and he does not see it coming, which demonstrates how stupid a man he really is!
Boehner will be portrayed in history as on a list of true villains, who undermined the nation they were sworn to serve!
I read in the paper this morning that someone set himself on fire in Washington and it was three paragraphs into the story before I realized that it wasn’t about Ted Cruz ; )
HAHA We should only have such luck LOL but realize, Paul, Ted Cruz is too self centered and egotistical to do such a thing. It is sad, however, that someone would do such a horrible thing to oneself, and it reminded me of the situation in South Vietnam in the summer of 1963, when Buddhist monks set themselves on fire.
Professor,
Maybe Cruz wouldn’t do that to himself, but there is always spontaneous combustion,
which there was a lot of during his “Fill-up, buster” crap-a-thon a couple of weeks ago.
Self immolation is nothing to laugh about, I realize and I guess I was confusing that with self idolatry on his part.
Paul, now spontaneous combustion sounds like a great idea regarding Cruz, hahaha! LOL
Hello Professor,
There is talk here in Columbus that if an election were held today, John Boehner may not survive a reelection. On this I’m sure he would not be missed.
Columbus may feel that way, but Boehner represents Cincinnati, very different politically than the state capital of Ohio. It could be that Boehner would decide not to run for reelection and retire instead. We shall see!
Professor, I had a thought today about John Boehner. He seems terrified to cross tbe T publicans, maybe because he would lose job. But I wonder if it doesn ‘t go even deeper Into the slime. The Koch boys have spent millions of millions of dollars to create this T party movement. They support republucans for the house and senate, they have peovided for organizations, and any number of other entities to swamp our political system and create
the government THEY want, the rich are richer, served by the rest of us. Their tentacles reach into every nook and cranny. I’m thinking ole Bone head has been promised a HUGE GIAGANTIC PAYOUT If he manages to get the house to sink the economy and Obamacare. It would make sense because why would Bone head give up his soul and liver for a job he clearly is not fit? Money talks and the Kochs could have promised him millions to do their bidding..
What you have written, Maggie, actually makes a lot of sense. If this could be proved, Boehner should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law, and prosecution of the Koch Brothers should also be pursued. This makes the elite wealthy, such as the Koch Brothers, no better than domestic anarchists! The Gilded Age of the late 19th century is back!
