Boehner says "FUBO"Follow

Who knew he had a hairy pair o' testes?

Boehner says no thank you to the President.

I think he should have done it sooner, and more forcefully. How about the rest of you?

Yeah. I was expecting something like that. Pretty dickish move by the President scheduling it on that particular evening in the first place. I half expected Boehner to just tell him to have fun, but we wont be there, but I suppose this is a bit better in terms of face-saving.

Did you miss the part where the President scheduled his big address to be on the same night as the GOP presidential debate? And yeah, it is kind of a big deal for Congress to tell the president to show up on a different day than he asked for.

This.

I love Boehner's excuse that jobs are so important to the GOP that they won't have enough time after their month long vacation to get Congress ready for Obama's jobs speech

I love how so many morons like you think the opposite is true.

You know, when jobs don't POOF out of thin air it's all down to one person.

How does it feel to be a watered down version of an already generic pseudo personality that is varus?

Ah... Good to see you're all about compromise and trying to reach across the aisle!



An excuse he created for Obama's benefit. We all know the real reasons Boehner's asking the president to change the date, right? So we can say that Obama is being crudely partisan and Boehner is acting like a statesman and rising above it. And you're criticizing Boehner?

Kind of funny, a Republican whining about people not being willing to compromise. Isn't it kind of their fault you guys got dowgraded from AAA? You know, by not being willing to compromise, at all.

You keep talking about those lazy Republicans and their month long vacation, wasn't the other side of the aisle on the same month long vacation?

Didn't Barry just get back from Martha Vineyard? Oh that's right he is gonna say the word "job" on Thursday so that means he cares more...........



No the downgrade was a result of decades of failed liberal policies that have raise an entire generation of people who think it's the government's job to take care of them and somebody else pay for it.

Understand now or do you want me to use smaller words?

I see you never took remedial civics. If you had, you'd know that the Congressional adjournment schedule is handled by the Speaker's office. But since you obviously never bothered to learn these minor details, I guess we can forgive you for just babbling randomly.


You mean the week long vacation Republicans cried and moaned about while on their 30 day break? Of course, as everyone was constantly reminded before, there's no real vacations for the president since he's constantly being briefed, etc.

The GOP Congresscritters, on the other hand, were too scared (or maybe just too tired?) to even hold the traditional town halls.

But, yeah... Got me there!

Cant he jut get biden to do it, at the same time as the debate. Oh wait can't just do it anyway. Football > debate. Reschedule the debate. Obama got Osama. He's golden.

One of the best comments I read today was that BO should thank Boehner and scrap it altogether, since every time the President speaks the economy goes a little further in the sh:tter.
