Boehner’s Strategic Mistake
After thinking about the restraint, or simple lack of invective regarding the president and democrats during Mr. Boehner’s rejoinder yesterday after the president’s utterly disgusting rhetoric regarding Americans who happen to be republican, I have come to a conclusion.
When it comes to words, and the picture they are painting, or attempting to paint in the minds of Americans regarding republicans, the democrats are BOLSHEVIK in intent, and Boehner and the republicans are Kerensky in response.
It takes only one side to create a war.
Every leading democrat is taking part.
If the Dems have not concluded that what they are doing is damaging if not a danger to the republic, I’ll be shocked. They , IMHO, have concluded what they want is more important.
The want the destruction of the republican party as an effective political force.
Mr. Boehner, don’t end up as some Cato here.
Next time around, take the president apart not as a liar, but a damned liar, or utterly incompetent. Let Obama make that choice.
Yesterday Obama was vulnerable in his claims historically, and was later contradicted by Moody’s, and networks and news services. Obama could not have made these claims in a vacuum. He is modeling the behavior he wants from Reid, Pelosi, Durbin, Schumer et al.
The republicans need to articulate an opposition, and the reason for it, which is not dependent on web site follies. While the Obamacare site may be an icon for the failures of this entire idea, VERY FEW have seen the underlying product and it’s costs. And Obamacare is JUST ONE PROGRAM.
Strike back.
Effectively. No one else has the ‘voice’ but you, the man charged with working something out with the executive.
We are going broke. We can't afford our weapons, our programs, our ideas. The govt is getting to be a greater succubus and tumor on the people all the time. What we are doing is unsustainable across the board. In 2012 the INTEREST on the national debt was 1.5 Ford class aircraft carriers a month , 40 F-35's a week, and 2/3 OF THE ENTIRE MEDICARE PROGRAM!!
That's probably why we need a higher debt limit, so we can pay more interest on more debt. Then we can raise the limit the next year so we can pay more interest on more debt. UNTIL THERE IS NOTHING FOR ANYONE. Not for SNAP, SS, disability, pensions, healthcare or a bullet. NOTHING FOR ANYONE
When Obama claims raising the debt limit does not increase the debt, ridicule him without pity or respect.
WITHOUT PITY OR RESPECT

Engage. When the other side attacks with the intent of wrecking you, there is NO ALTERNATIVE.
Do it for the good of the nation.
