The Speaker of the House

John Boehner is already laying out a course of destruction of the middle class now that the Republican's have captured the Senate and now control Congress. Of course he's preaching the same old "Repeal Obamacare" mantra. Thank goodness that although they have control of the Senate, but they don't have the muscle to override a Veto. So what does that mean? For one thing is means that their attempts to let Pharmaceutical Companies and HMO's write new legislation to replace Obamacare ain't gonna happen. Honestly does anyone really believe those companies have our best interests at heart? But it may lead to some healthy tweaks which is what the Republicans should have been striving for from the beginning. Democrats would most likely go along with that if it's reasonable. And by the way, eliminating the individual mandate is not reasonable.

The Speaker also has warned the President to not try and take Executive action on immigration outside of his authority. Well, Mr. Speaker, that may mean you Republicans will have to get off your dead asses, and actually work with the President like he's been begging you to for 6 years. The onus of this do-nothing Congress is not on him. It's on you Mr. Speaker. Get your pals to set aside their bigotry and try to accomplish something for the country. But he's not gonna let you stick it to the middle class the way you want to. And just so you know Mr. Speaker, we haven't forgotten about the credit down-grade your party gave us, or the government shut down. We never treated you guys with this much ugly racist contempt.

Only 35% of the entire voting public show up for the mid-terms, and as I stated earlier, that is always good for the Republicans. But then they get this false sense of a mandate, and then they screw us for two years and then they get a shellacking and they scratch their heads and wonder what happened. Because this is not a mandate Mr. Speaker, it's what happens when Democrats don't vote. But by the Presidential election 55% of the voting public turns out and that changes things.

Hopefully, on November 8th, 2016 your party gets to switch from being racists to sexists.
