Still think the Repubs hold the house in 2014?They clearly don´t want to.

Boenher, go starve.

Looking at this positively... Boehner has to pick fights he thinks he can win. A CR that defunds Obamacare will not pass the Senate and then we are in a namecalling, fingerpointing fight over a government shutdown. With the press in Obama´s pocket, the GOP loses this fight.

The sequester battle seems to be a win for the GOP so far. We have yet to see the press trotting out "victims" (who would be victims of any cuts in government spending) but it is looking good so far.

The debt limit is the next fight that the GOP might be able to win. I am going to give Boehner this one but if he walks away from the debt limit fight, I agree that he is simply not the man for the job.

What kind of dirt does BO have on Boehner that he keeps caving? I wouldn´t be surprised with this mob in the office.

"Cave"-man.

These scurilous attacks on leading Republicans need to stop!
Unless we Conservatives can stand solidly behind our leaders like Boehner especially, we on the Right are sunk.
Terence Jeffrey and others needs to un-form the circular GOP firing squad and stand together against the 0bama-led Left.

He said after the SC ruling that Obamacare was the law of the land and I guess he means to implement and enforce. What an idiot we have as Speaker. Merger of the two parties continues unabated.

Do the House Republicans control the Federal Purse Strings or not? MY reading of our US Constitution says they Do! However, Boehner and his band of merry miscreants have yet to remove funding from any agencies or programs. I do not regret for one minute leaving the republican party nor speaking out against their lame brained programs....

Boehner and the repubs are pathetic and cave all the time...no surprise here. There is no hope for the GOP as it stands. They will continue to cave and continue to lose, but in their mind they think people won´t blame them or maybe even like them. They are as disgusting as demos. Folks, take a look at where this country stands right now...enough said.

Oh BTW #6, what does the GOP stand for these days?? Do they stand for choosing the perfect time to "CAVE"?!?!?!? They stand for nothing and fight for nothing...look around you.

Republicans, led by Boehner (and McConnell to a lesser extent in the Senate) stood firm against 0bama´s sequester threats and didn´t cave in the least.

Perspective, people!
(And not Terry Jeffrey´s black hole, either. )

First of all, those folks who defend the likes of Bonehead Boehner, should not call themselves conservative, as they are anything BUT.

Also, name ONE thing on which Bonehead stood his ground to the end, and did not cave to Obama and the dems. Just one.

Finally, these clowns in the majority in the house, gave Bush a "spend recklessly" card, and then gave Obama one with an even HIGHER limit.

The most worthless human beings in America.

i am not sure on nwhat basis we can trust the republicans on any thing. how did we get to $16 trillion in debt and another trillion dollar deficit in 2013?

you republican kool-aid drinkers need to understand that your base is leaving. you cant do any thing about that but complain and point fingers, but fact is fact.

dont expect people to hold their noses any more and vote republicans. no sane person would do that and expect different results than we have had.

Agrree with you 100% #12. Just worthless. How frustrating. I will do all I can to defeat them in the next primaries.

Attacks on my Conservatism and Boehner´s are nothing but ad hominems.
Name one thing that Boehner has done as Speaker that wasn´t Conservative: you cannot.

Secondly, I´ve seen the Speaker stand firm on the sequester and not give in to 0bama´s tremendous pressure of public whining and threats.

The Democrat Congress elected in 2006 was the one that did all the spending.
Not a single Republican in either the House or the Senate voted for 0bamaCare.
President Bush had cut the deficit in half to 200 Billion until the Wall St./"housing crisis" hit.

#6 kiss my butt, the republicans are NOT conservative, they are democrat Lite, that is all. Under GW Bush republicans spent like drunken sailors, my apologies to all drunken sailors.
they are more than willing to let anything slide to keep their own seats of power.
We need more like Rand Paul, willing to fight for what is right for our own future. Jeepers this is so ugly, we have ALLOWED them to do this. it is no wonder America is no longer #1. We will continue to suck buttermilk until we get rid of the Republican trash in office currently

Stopping the funding for Obamacare is one of the LAST chances we have of killing this monster before it kills us.
WHAT can be more important than cutting off funding?
The exchanges and the "Navigators" to run them are supposed to be up and running by October. If not NOW, when? After all the Baptist, Catholic and Methodist and 7th Day Adventist hospitals close their doors?

#5 and again at 15 the circular firing squad is necessary in this case. The republicans in the House for the large part have lost sight of the fact that they hold the purse strings and they are so lily livered about not being re-elected they have lost the point of why they were sent to DC in the first place - to represent we the people. Lord, please send some courage in their direction.

Boehner´s motto --> "I surrender! I surrender!"

Continuing Resolution is nothing more that a giant F U to the American citizen. I weep for the future of our nation with men and women such as these in charge of the system.

I love it.. Boehner is a Caveman. How can we have any hope he will stand up in the debt ceiling fight when he sidesteps this continuing resolution fight when it is in obvious alignment with the first amendment. Many americans of faith stand with the Catholic Church on this even though they are not members. Freedom of religion is an individual right and Obama should not get away with limiting it to worship services only. Obama´s statement at the UN re slander of the prophet of Islam shows he is ready to override freedom of speech to establish Islamic law. Every part of the first amendment - coercion to act against your faith, establishment of an alien religion and abridging the freedom of speech - would be shredded if Obama has his way!

We need a Newt...not a rino ... Boehner is the worst leader in history....

The responses by the trolls are hilarious if they were not so pathetic. The senate has not passed a bill in almost 4 years - think about it. John is doing just fine.

~ Name one thing that Boehner has done as Speaker that wasn´t Conservative: you cannot. ~

I can.

Boehner passed a tax increase at a time when we desperately need government to cut its spending.

He passed a pork laden ´Sandy relief´ bill at a time when we desperately need government to cut spending.

He gave the White House another year to continue its un-constitutional operation without a debt limit at a time when we desperately need government to cut spending.

He removed three fiscally conservative legislators - who were working to cut government spending - from their committees, at a time when we desperately need government to cut spending.


Given the traditional definition of conservative as less government - more Constitution, all of the above fall under the heading of ´not Consrvative´.

So unless we are lock step with the moderate Republicans we are trolls. Lcom has sure given up the fight for conservative beliefs. Everyone who stands for Rove, Boehner, Christie...please us why you consider yourself a conservative..please let us know what you believe in. I have been reading the posts from the regular Boehner supporters and have yet to read one of them tell us what conservative beliefs they hold dear. Or are you just interested in the Repub brand...whatever that is now.
