Boehner Throws Down His Silk Gauntlet

With soaring fuel prices, ever increasing inflation, the world’s rejection of our dollar as its standard, record unemployment, America’s continued reliance on foreign energy when we could be exporting energy, and the loss of America’s credit rating, there are opportunities to score major political points with the American public, people who are staggering from the economic failure and effects of the Obama policies, while we wait hopelessly for Obama’s mythical Green Energy policies to rescue us from unemployment and welfare dependency.

With this amazing opportunity to destroy the Obama Myth, a result of its own ineptness and amateurish failings, our speaker, in a style that reflects the withdrawn and genteel style of our last failed presidential candidate, tiptoes through the tulips rather than running roughshod over broken glass to illustrate the mistakes and failures that Obama continues to inflict on this country; the least among them, is presidential and czar usurpation of power and control that is destroying Constitutional reliance. Democrats would be on a screaming rampage if the situation was reversed and every lucid American would be aware of the failures and impending doom, but in diplomatic fashion, typical of so many lost opportunities to seize the initiative, Boehner whines that Obama needs to get serious about reducing the deficit, by saying President Obama needs to “grow up” in talks over deficit reduction.

In a recent interview, in an uncharacteristic attack on the presidency, he was actually quoted as admitting that he personally trusts the president, but believes he isn’t being honest about Medicare, deficit reduction and taxes.

Boehner speaks out on the bipartisan deficit commission, a panel selected by Obama and ignored by Obama, regarding the controversial report’s recommendation of tax reform, hard spending cuts and reformation of Medicare and Social Security.

“While I didn’t agree with everything they did, there was a lot in their proposal that was worth of consideration. And what did the president do? He took exactly none of his own deficit reduction commission’s ideas. Not one. Come on! It’s time to grow up and get serious about the problems that face our country,”

Reiterating his trust in the president and his willingness to negotiate with him on resolution of the budget, he continued to stress Obama’s strengths like an Axlerod plant at a town hall meeting.

“I get along with him fine,” he said. “I wouldn’t say we’re close friends, but it’s — we’re polite. We get along fine. We look each other in the eye and we’re straight and honest with each other.”

Sounding like a naive gullible rube, Boehner continues to campaign for Obama.

“You know, I met with him, along with the other leaders — before he gave that speech that day. And we had a real honest conversation about raising taxes,” Boehner said.

“And both Senator [Mitch] McConnell and I made it clear to the president we’re not raising taxes. And he seemed to understand that we weren’t going to raise taxes,” he said. “We debated about how we were going to move forward in terms of the kind of changes we’re going to make. And it was a serious conversation.

“Then the president goes out that same afternoon and gives this partisan, political campaign speech — that — frankly, I was — I can’t tell you how disappointed I was in the president in not being honest with the American people about the big problems that we face,” he said. “And the fact that it’s time to own up, fess up and quit whistling past the graveyard.”

Hard hitting opposition?

Boehner conceded that Americans want to tax the rich, but like pouring skim milk into strong coffee; he countered, it would be unfair and hurt the economy. He maintained that Republicans had the Ryan Plan, he took issue with the Democrat claim that it would end Medicare as we know it. The same plan that the president, Boehner’s bosom buddy and confidant, attacked so viciously in his speech, along with other assorted pit bulls of Liberalism. Boehner maintains that the proposed changes will only affect people under 55 years of age and that the changes are similar to Obama’s changes in his own health care bill, passed last year. Now he is really getting tough.

“It’s the old adage that legislators talk about. ‘Don’t tax me, don’t tax me. But tax the man behind the tree,'” he said.

if you want to win this fight and save our country from being overwhelmed in Obama’s plans for International Socialism and third world status for America, you should be willing to fight like your life depends on it and not dance around the problems like a Sunday School teacher. These are more serious issues than the subject of benedictions and church schedules. Socialists and Progressives play for keeps and they want to destroy us. It is time to fight for our freedom and realize that this election either means we wear the yoke of Socialist slavery or keep our Freedom as written by our Constitution and founding fathers.

The truth is we need the metaphorical throat cutter who is willing to expose Obama’s weaknesses and failures: complimenting him is a serious error that only allows the myth to be perpetuated for another day.
