John Boehner needs to "man up" or go home.

[kentuck]

He is supposed to be a leader. He is the Speaker of the House. He is supposed to be able to get the votes needed to resolve problems and help the people of this country.

But he is a whiny wimp. He has no business being in the position that he sits now. He is about the most worthless piece of excrement in the nation's capitol.

If he was a true leader, he would not be following the whims of the Tea Party at every turn, but he would be able to make his own decisions and get the support to help pass them. He would be working with the Democrats to try and find a compromise on the tough issues. But he had rather obstruct. He would prefer to do nothing than piss off the right-wingers in his Party. He is weak.

The sad fact is that nothing will ever get done so long as this guy is the Speaker.

1. Are congressional republicans upset with him?

I haven't seen the republicans clamoring to pass legislation, teabaggers or non-teabaggers.

2. A week ago, they weren't clamoring for any changes from Mitch McConnell either...

But we see that some Senators, led by Johm McCain, disagreed with his tactics and handed him a humiliating defeat. Why could that not happen in the House??

3. I'm for the go home option.

He should go home and park his ass on a bar stool and drink himself blind. At least there the only damage he does is to himself and not the whole country.

4. Twelve months, Kentuck, twelve months.

Boehners days are numbered. The legislation coming down the barrel is unavoidable. I give Boehner 12 months before he either resigns, gets thrown under the bus by the Tea Party.
