And So It Begins! Boehner Is First To Blink On Raising Taxes

Posted by Brian

Hang on to your wallets!  Just hours after stating that "voters said 'no' to raising taxes", the perma-tanned and limp-wristed Speaker of the House, John Boehner, is indicating that he would go along with raising taxes "under the right conditions".  And what will those "conditions" be Speaker Boehner?   Better treatment by the press? Free tanning sessions? Maybe Obama will say "please".
Unfortunately, now that some godd conservatives were defeated yesterday (Allen West and Mia Love), the number of principled conservatives in the House has decreased, and we will continue to have a rudderless leadership team to fight a vile and vicious Democrat machine. You can say whatever you want about Nancy Pelosy, Steny Hoyer, and the others on the Democrat side, the fact is, they refuse to veer from their message and agenda. Boehner, on the other hand, is the battered wife who perpetually forgives his batterer, only to go back to get the crap beat out of himself again.
God help us!
