A few weeks ago the Republican National Committee (RNC) started running one of its famous incredibly stupid commercials with a tag line that said, "Tell President Obama that you want him to work with Republicans." Now House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio)is doing his best to channel Gerry Ford from forty years ago when Gerry held the same job.A wire service says,"House Minority Leader John Boehner, an Ohio Republican, said the impasse among Democrats will force party leaders to seek Republican support." “If we’re going to have real health reform, it will have to be bipartisan,” he said in an interview.
Earth to Congressman Boehner. You just don't get it. A bipartisan era of socialism is no better than one brought on by Democrats only, it is far worse because when it all goes south there is no clear line of reponsibility and I guess Boehner will be happy if the GOP can share half the blame with left-wing Democrats. People who love freedom in America have less to fear from President Obama than they do from stupid GOP leaders who dont know how to effectively criticize him because they don't know what they believe in themselves.
Boehner was OK, he had a good voting record. But something happens to otherwise OK Repubblicans when they get into positions of House leadership and they suddently think principle no longer matters if they can see the left-wing press paint them as being statesman because they want to be "bipartisan." So they go home feeling all warm and fuzzy about their press clippings from crazoid left newspapers and freedom suffers more at the hands of confused GOP leaders than it does from the socialists. Boehner should step aside for somone who knows that the brand name Republican should stand for something better and more principled in its dedication to freedom than it does in the Gerry Ford-Charlies Halleck-John Boehner world of pointless compromise for its own sake. John Boehner and the careerist House Republicans care far more about keeping their useless seats warm than they do in fighting any battles for freedom. Let a thousand points contend and 1000 primary challengers bloom, since that is the only way to get the attention of the seat-warmer Republicans.
