Boehner Incompetent; Cruz Un-American

[Wry Catcher]

about as many that shut down the gov. in say Carters day ( 3, or was it 6 times?) over abortion and nuclear power which he told them he would not sign.......12 days, once. And they were ALL DEMOCRATS, congress etc....I guess they were all UN-american, ..its a bitch huh? You're an ignoramus and a media sheeple........eat up sheep.

You're an asshole as well as being an ignorant member of the echo chamber. Without any proof what does something you allege occurred happening over a quarter century ago have to do with current events?

I love it when you just go off on me, becasue its simply your only reaction and revealing, and speaks to the that you're a very low information media sheepleton......

Google is your friend, use it so you won't be making asinine remarks over 'alleged' events that are historically recorded for all to see.

Those that don't mind hearing that their side doesn't have a lock on 'truth' or 'right' would do that ....now you, the press and I mean obama in particular are making yourselves out to be nothing more than roaring hypocrites aside from being dishonest....

Over a quarter of a century ago. How is that relevant to today? Alleged, meaning you comport then with now. Different times, different circumstances, different players.

How many days has the H. of Rep. been in session since January 2011? What have they accomplished?

Hey [MENTION=20297]Wry Catcher[/MENTION] - this is your god here. This is the man you are desperate to fellate. So the Republicans are doing exactly what Obama said they should do and you cry like a little girl?

"Mr. President, I rise today to talk about America's debt problem.

The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can't pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless fiscal policies. Over the past 5 years, our federal debt has increased by $3.5 trillion to $8.6 trillion. That is "trillion'' with a "T.'' That is money that we have borrowed from the Social Security trust fund, borrowed from China and Japan, borrowed from American taxpayers." - Senator Barack Obama, 2006

Debt Limit Has Been increased SEVEN times under Obama

Given that many have safe seats, a result of gerrymandering, most will find their greatest contest in the primary. Rational moderate Republicans will challenge many of the Tea Party Radicals to take their party back; some will win. If enough do maybe sanity will return to the H. of Rep.

If the radical Republicans really believed in austerity, wouldn't they eliminate the health care package they get and cut their own salary and benefits?

Democrats exempted themselves from ObamaCare

Wondering where do you get your wrong information from?

Bottom line: has Congress exempted itself from Obamacare? No. Members of the House and Senate, as well as their aides, will be kicked out of the federal system -- all because Grassley played a stupid game -- and will get coverage through exchanges.

The exchanges were, of course, designed for Americans who can't get coverage through their employer, but this pool of consumers will have a very notable exception: Congress.

Anyone who tells you there's a congressional "exemption" from the law either doesn't know what they're talking about, or assumes you're easily fooled into believing nonsense.

Congress isn't 'exempt' from Obamacare - The Maddow Blog

Fly Catcher ran away screaming from this post. Perhaps you can explain it:

If the radical Republicans really believed in austerity, wouldn't they eliminate the health care package they get and cut their own salary and benefits?

If Obamacare is so swell, why are Democrats so keen on exempting Congress from it?

Democrats Act to Stop Vitter Amendment, Keep Obamacare Exemptions for Congress

Democratic leaders increased their efforts on Tuesday to turn aside an amendment sponsored by Republican U.S. Senator David Vitter of Louisiana, that would prevent Congressional members and staffers from receiving exemptions from key Obamacare measures.

When Congress passed the sweeping Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act in 2010, Congressional members and their staff were exempted from several provisions of the law.

The Vitter amendment would change that and require the president and vice president to participate in mandated healthcare exchanges and would eliminate federal employer contributions for health benefits for the president, vice president, members of Congress, and political appointees.

The amendment also would block tax credits for assistance in buying insurance on the exchanges for these individuals.

--

But a new poll released by the Independent Women's Voice gives support to Vitter's efforts.

"Overwhelmingly, 94 percent of voters consider it fair that the Congress be required to abide by the same law they passed for the country. Conversely, 92 percent of voters believe it is unfair that the Congress should be exempt from buying their insurance in the health exchanges," the poll said.​

Of course, it's not like Democrats give a damn about what the people think.

[MENTION=20297]Wry Catcher[/MENTION] - You guys destroyed the house over 100 years ago when you started ignoring the Constitution while handing out money in exchange for power. You greedy asshats broke America.

By the way, we never invaded nor occupied any nation. If we had, Iraq would be under U.S. rule right now. When you stop lying, we can continue this discussion.

You don't want "rational" Republicans, you want liberal Republicans like George W. Bush and John Boehner. You liberals are throwing temper-tantrums because you're used to having your way thanks to marxist Dumbocrats and liberal Republicans.

You're party has gotten more and more radical and now rational seems "radical" to you because of it. All the Tea Party has done is obey the highest law in the land (Constitution). How sad that you consider obeying the law to be "irrational" and "radical".

Barack Obama and the Dumbocrats have spent us into collapse. You have nobody to blame but yourselves.

Well you invaded Canada in 1812. Hoping to grab territory while the British were fighting the tyrant Napoleon. And burnt the government buildings in Toronto, the then capital. And have been crying ever since over the British subsequently burning the White House. I think the expression is 'tit for tat' or something like that.

 

[peach174]

That's all I heard from the Dem's.
It was all about the Government and how it effected the Government.
The Dem on the committee Louise Slaughter from N.Y., all she was upset about was that it was unfair for staff members having to pay for the New Health Care Bill.
Oh never mind Louis, that millions of Americans are in the same boat, who can't afford to pay for their Obama health care.

The Democrats are having to finally go through what the rest of Millions of Americans are experiencing.
They showed their true colors.
They care more about Government and their power, rather than what would be good for the Country and Americans.
Not a one of them want to cut back on spending.

Boehner is the worst speaker in modern history. He has no legislative accomplishments, has shut down government, allowed his party to run rampant over its citizens

Cruz is Canadian....how do you expect him to act?

Cruz is a U.S. Citizen.
He dropped his dual citizenship.
Even though he never claimed Canadian citizenship.

Pelosi has legislative achievements to show for her time as Speaker. Obamacare, Stimulus, Repeal of DADT, Lily Ledbetter, Financial market reform, credit card reform, START treaty

Boehners lone achievement is that he has shut down the government

If elected, he will turn the country over to the Canadians

I got a mass email from my Repub pub senator saying he had voted for naming a bridge.

The rest of the time, he's been leaving on vacation or getting ready to vote to repeal ObamaCare or leaving for vacation or voting to repeal ObamaCare, or leaving on vacation or reporting that he voted to repeal ObamaCare or leaving on vacation or getting ready to vote to repeal ObamaCare or leaving on vacation or taking time out from his busy vacation schedule for photo ops.

In between, he obstructed jobs bills.
