Boehner's Latest Boner
This from the Federalist Patriot:
"Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-NY) was censured by the House (333-79) just nine months ago for several ethics violations, including tax evasion. Yet Thursday, Rangel hosted a ceremony to unveil his official portrait in the Longworth House Office Building. The list of speakers at the ceremony included Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-MD), as well as New York Democrat senators Kirsten Gillibrand and Chuck Schumer. After getting an "OK" from the FEC, Rangel paid for the $65,000 portrait using campaign cash.
Truly, this is beyond words. These people really do live in a parallel universe -- one in which, as Pelosi once put it, they "drain the swamp" apparently by hanging portraits of swamp creatures. What next? Obama wins the Nobel Peace Prize? Oh, wait..."
End
Get that? JOhn Boehner shows up at this self-aggrandizing event!
This proves that Boehner wants to go back to "business as usual", wants to maintain himself and his friends inside the elitist circle of rulers. Any rational person would have the good sense to avoid Rangel like the plague, and avoid such an exercise, yet here the leader of the GOP in the House is cozying up to these same people who have caused all the problems and who insult and impugne us at every turn.
Boehner believes that the public wants more "comity" because polls suggest the public is sick of partisan rancor, but he misunderstands what it is that the public wants. He thinks being friendly with his elitist chums will solve the problem, show he is really a nice guy. But the public does not want an end to rancor in the sense of a cease-fire; they want victory, a permanent end to it. Peace was not established after the Civil War by Lincoln visiting Jeff Davis and paling around; it was established by victory on the battlefield first. These people have to be beaten politically for there to be an end to the rancor. Remember, the left started this, and they continue it despite what the polls show.
This is a political civil war, and it won't end until one side is beaten. That fool Boehner simply cannot understand that. His enemies do, and are more than happy to get the Boner to take such stupid actions.
How can anything change with men like Boehner as our champions?
