Well, I'm sorry to say that John Boehner won reelection as speaker. And, as usual, the teary-eyed girly man was overcome with emotion. But what really made me look around for a barf bag was his statement that, "This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad."
Excuse me, reelecting a RINO who supports the biggest abortion promoter in history is a sign of the Lord's favor? I think it smacks more of Pilate's praetorium than the Lord's temple!
How many Republicans were threatened with losing their plum committee assignments? (We know at least two who are being dumped from the powerful Rules Committee for daring to oppose Boehner: Daniel Webster and Richard Nugent.) Let's face it - we know how the game is played: strong-arming your colleagues for votes, pork for the folks back home hidden in huge bills nobody reads, making promises for change that nobody intends to keep. That's inside-the-beltway politics, friends. Who cares about the grass roots? Surely not the establishment!
I'd like to think that a Republican majority will make a difference, but I've seen how the game works and I don't have much hope. But then I never put my hope in men anyway, especially feckless politicians who think souls are things you trade for earthly power and fame.

John Boehner Needs a Brain Transplant
Boehner: 'Mr. President, This Is Your Moment. We’re Ready to Be Led'
Led where? To the doors of the abortion mills? To the same-sex wedding? Off the fiscal cliff? Straight to hell? Sheesh!
Boehner say he wants the president "to succeed." I sure don't. His success means more dead babies in America, more dead babies in the third world, more able bodied adults collecting welfare, more illegal aliens taking jobs from American workers, more Mexican drug lords killing Americans in the southwest and coyotes raping Mexican girls on the way across the border, more tax money for Planned Parenthood, more tax money for Obama's union thugs, more government takeovers of private business, more homosexual privilege, less freedom for people of faith.... Need I go on? The Obama agenda is the death of virtue and the exultation of vice. And it's weepy wimps like John Boehner and other establishment Republicans who have helped to enable this debacle. If it came down to a fight between Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Speaker of the House John Boehner, I'd have to put my money on Harry Reid. He fights dirty, but he fights. And you know where he stands. Reid promised he wouldn't work with Romney. Does anybody really think he's willing to work with the Republican establishment eunuchs? Remember the message to Laodicea in the Book of Revelation:
As for both of these men talking about a "mandate" from the people, that's nonsense? While the popular vote totals won't be final for some time, the difference will likely be between two and three percentage points. That's no mandate; it shows a deeply divided country that elects liberals for president, but continues to favor conservatives in the House of Representatives, the body closest to the people. Why did liberals win the national election? Blacks voted for the black, Latinos voted for the one most likely to keep the borders open to illegals, many evangelicals don't vote, and the Catholic divide between orthodox and cafeteria heretics makes our voice irrelevant. That final reality is the saddest of all. We, who are called to be salt and light to the earth had absolutely no influence on the election.
As for John Boehner, he's no fighter and he's out of his league with the Chicago-style politicians. The only message his wimpy conciliation sends to Dirty Harry and his thugs is that they can mop the floor with the House Republicans while blaming them for being bullies! It's their way.
I know your deeds; I know you are neither hot nor cold. How I wish you were one or the other -- hot or cold! But because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I will spew you out of my mouth!" (Revelation 3:15-16)Who's hot and whose lukewarm in this fight? Who in Congress has fought for the innocent babies in the womb like Congressman fought for and against slavery in the 19th century?
