If he does resign,what becomes of his vow,to bring Sandy relief up for a vote on Friday??...Is a promise he made today binding two days after he steps down??...




*Hopefully I worded this in such a way as to not offend anyones sensibilities to the point they are compelled to alert on me,then call me freeper and juvenile under the anoymous cover of the alert.*

after resigning (if it occurs) he will spend the rest of his term with his feet up on his desk, watching Cantor man the ship as it continues to implode.

I can hear his comments, now:

What? President Obama did that? Wow!"


What? Yelling at Nancy Pelosi did make her do it your way? Wow ... I would'a thought it would have for sure!"


What? You have 216 members in your caucus being held cative by 34 clueless idiots ? Wow ... Couldn't see that coming?


Yep, eric ... It' looks alot easier from the bench! Now call they play you were telling me to run! That'll work for sure.

Of course, I imagine that Cantor's gonna get the gavel next, so Democrats are going to have to get used to being absolutely ruthless with him.

Ron Mayer of American Majority Action was on show. He's claiming there are 20 Republicans committed to voting against Boehner.

see how he does. I bet he'll go down pretty fast as the most hated speaker. I can't stand him. Bonner comes off like an angel compared to him.
