i had no idea you were so young. google jim wright and dennis hastert, whippersnapper.
No need to, Pops. I remember the reign of error of Jaunty Jim Wright and Dapper Denny Hastert (recalling my Mighty Marvel Bullpen days), and Nimble Nancy Pelosi was no prize either, but Joltin' Johnny Boehner brought his own
special sort of suckiness to the job.
Just 14 percent of Americans approve of the way Congress is doing its job, according to a new
Gallup survey released Wednesday, and they do not seem all that enamored with Republican leaders in the House and Senate, either.
That is the lowest share of congressional approval seen by Gallup this year, though it is not the lowest in history — a paltry 9 percent said they approved of Congress’ job performance in the days after the government shut down in October 2013.
A majority of 54 percent expressed dissatisfaction with the job performance of John Boehner (R-Ohio), who is currently serving his third term as speaker of the House. Just 23 percent view him favorably, his lowest number since becoming speaker in 2011, though he had a similar share of 27 percent approval in March, according to Gallup’s results.
I wouldn't carve out a new Mt. Everest of Leadership for Boehner, McConnell, Pelosi and Reid, but really,
WHAT are we losing by this fucktard bailing and running for the exit?
A government shutdown? Had one with the Boner in charge. Endless Benghazi investigations? Still got those with the Boner in charge. Refused to raise the debt ceiling? That was the Boner again. Voting
50 FUCKING TIMES to defund Obamacare? All on the Boner's watch. Disrespected by and unable to control the Tea Party Crazies in his caucus? That's gotta be the Boner.
In my lifetime, there have been ten Speakers of the House. I liked some, respected a few and loathed the rest. Without question or qualification, despite the disparaging nickname, John Boehner was hands down the absolute worst, most ineffectual, limpest dick to wield the gavel. Nancy Pelosi had been bigger balls than Agent Orange.
"During the — during my years here when I voted, I have the eighth most conservative voting record in the Congress. And it does pain me to be described as spineless or a squish. And I tell you what pains me the most is when they describe me as the establishment. Now, I'm the most anti-establishment speaker we've ever had. You know, who was the guy who got rid of earmarks? Me. Who's the guy that believes in regular order? Me. Who believes in allowing more members to participate in the process from both sides of the aisle? Me."
Who's a whiny-ass little bitch?
You, John Boner Boehner. You were a squish. A spineless little slimy worm.
Don't tell me who's coming after him will probably be worse. Look at the flotsam and jetsam in the House Republican leadership and tell me something I don't know. Tell me if Boehner's replacement will be as impotent as he was?
I despise gutless, cheap political hacks like Boehner who will wear his permanent stink of failure like a cheap dollar store cologne.
