Boehner Says He Can't Take a Stand on the Issues Because It Makes His Job
House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) apparently sees his role as more of a facilitator than a leader. Asked repeatedly if he favors a pathway to citizenship for 11 million illegal aliens, Boehner told CBS's "Face the Nation" that his job is not to take a stand, but to let the House "work its will." "My job in this -- in this process is to facilitate a discussion and to facilitate a process so the American people can see what we're doing and so the members understand that we're dealing with this in a deliberative way," Boehner said. Pressed repeatedly on whether he personally favors a pathway to citizenship, Boehner demurred: "[P]eople have been trying to get me to do this since the day after the election," Boehner said. "Well, you're the leader of the Republicans," Schieffer responded. Boehner said he's made it clear that Congress needs to do something about immigration. -
How can you pass legislation without taking a stand?
Oh yea......Boehner does not pass legislation
He's a joke...He'd rather Scheme behind the scenes

Makes you yearn for Nancy Pelosi again
The whiny left spends a silly amount of time cherry picking and spinning every sentence uttered by republican politicians. I guess it beats trying to defend the president's crumbling administration.
Actually, his job is to press legislation, make deals, cross the aisle and get things doneBoehner is the worst Speaker in modern history and he has to make up excuses for why he is so badBut you blame him for obama getting nothing passed? Got it!

Sez you. His job is procedural in nature. It's in the job description.
You either didn't get the memo, or you're on a need to know basis.

Yeah, and nail my balls to a board. That's how much i want that to happen again. I remember her saying unemployment compensation will help the economy. Also we need to pass it to find out was in it. Another thing once she took over the economy went to crap. Please tell me different. I like my balls. Please!!! Also she stocked her jet with more alcohol in one trip than i drank in my life. Make it so bad my tax dollars paid for it.
