“The promise I made to Ms. Pelosi is the same promise I made to Republicans: that we would follow regular order,” Boehner said."
“And I’m not into messy.”
Just consider those two statements. In the first he is already trying to back out of a promise he made…in other words lie…and by doing so pretty much guaranteeing things get/stay messy…making the second statement a bald faced lie.
So lying about a promise is he is about to break and lying again about he conducts “business”. And no push back.
Well, it’s going to be a helluva lot messier in about a week, you fucking dickwad. And Pelosi and the Dems aren’t going to bail your ass out unless you put a clean bill up for a vote when your little one-week extension is up.
Boehner is the epitome of a wuss. If he had any balls whatsoever, he would shove everything up the Tea Party’s ass and finish them once and for all. Make a deal with Pelosi, the Dems, and the remaining half-sane Republicans to pass legislation that must be passed, and to keep him as Speaker. Personally I would LOVE to see a Teabagger take over as Speaker, because it would be a gift to the Democratic Party, along with the fact that the Republicans are seemingly running against a 3rd Obama term in 2016. It’s nice when your opponents live in a state of constant delusion.
…and I can’t wait to hear Pelosi’s and other Dem’s responses to Boehner and his underlings saying they never promised a clean bill to come up next week.
Not while tea partiers are in the picture. Acting like an adult, acknowledging that you have limitations and responsibilities and that other people have rights—it’s anathema, it’s “compromising your principles.” If there’s any one quality that seems to define them, it’s that constant pitching a tantrum over nothing like a three-year-old. It’s a case of mass hysteria, basically, and acting like an adult has never been a big part of that.
What Boner didn’t mention is that Steve Scalise (R-KKK) holds all the cards against the Speaker should he go against the Teabaggers that Scalise is in bed with…Scalise is Boner’s bedbug…He bites. Scalise could’ve and should’ve been able to whip the count the first time around and didn’t, for whatever reason. That’s bad news for the Orangeman.
I hope she recorded him on her IPhone or has it written in his blood somewhere. You know Boner’s lying. Pelosi wouldn’t have gone along with even the one week extension without further assurances that a clean bill was the next thing to be voted on, I believe. She doesn’t strike me as the lying sort, nor does she have any reason to make up what she was told.
Given the abject failure of his term as Speaker, I’m surprised Boehner has the guts to show his face in public. Politicians such as Boehner have no shame or conscience.
But Dickerson then asked Boehner if that group of conservatives had “a plan that could have succeeded and passed and signed by the president that would have gotten them what they wanted.”
“Not that I know of,” Boehner said.
His entire speakership in a nutshell, right there.
