Boehner cave's to Obama on budget cuts. - courtesy: NY Daily News
Once again the Republican leadership caves and then tries to tell us they won. Just six weeks ago our mealy-mouthed leadership told us they were going to cut $100 billion from this year’s budget. A few short weeks later the gutless wonders leading our party reduced that number to $60 billiondollars. Then late last night the well tanned amoeba, John Boehner caved to the socialist-in-chief and settled on $38 billion.
Boehner has been tooting his own horn saying that this is the largest budget cut in history. Well of course it’s the largest cut in history, you fools in Congress have spent the last decade spending the taxpayer’s money like a crack addict. The fact is that $38 billion is only equal to one-percent of this years budget and doesn’t come anywhere close to covering this year’s projected $1.3 trillion deficit.
What the hell are you afraid of? Are you people really not smart enough to spin the message that the Democrats would rather keep the abortion factory that is Planned Parenthood open than pay our brave men and women in uniform? That they would rather a baby be killed every ninety-five seconds than to get our spending under control.
Oh but Planned Parenthood doesn’t use any federal funds for abortion. Come on; they take all the money they get, put it in the bank, and spend it to cover there expenses just like any other company does. How on earth can anyone say that this dollar from the government is used to pay for condoms for little Billy but this dollar from a private donation is used to cover the cost of abortions. Are you serious?
When confronted about this Boehner and his flunkies use the excuse that “we’re only one-half of one-third of the government.” Well Mr. Speaker, that’s about as weak an excuse as there is because the one-half of one-third that you control, just happens to control all the purse strings. In case you forgot, the House controls one hundred percent of the spending and taxing authority of the Federal Government.
We might as well just surrender to China because at this point they own us anyway. At this point it’s painfully obvious that you cowards in Congress are not going to do anything to fix our financial problem. I don’t know how you look at yourselves in the mirror. You all took an oath of office to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States but you’re clearly waving the white flag of surrender.
Boehner like to pretend that things will be different if they have executive/senate and the house. He keep surrendering every battle and falling back and back, while telling the troops, don’t worry, we will draw a line at the end. When the end comes, the war is lost
TK,
I agree; Boehner doesn’t have what it takes to fight the progressives and the mainstream media. These times call for courageous action, not passivity and CYA politics as usual. Our beloved country is close to the point of no return. If we (non-progressives) blow it this time, we may never get another chance.
