Boehner says he needs President Obama's "help"...can't wait for freepers to brand him a R.I.N.O.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

The fact that Obama isn't the least bit intimidated by Boehner's crap, and is in fact calling him out in press conferences, means it's only a matter of seconds before the freepers throw Mr. Tan In A Can under the bus.

suh-WEET!



Howard Dean and Michael Steel are locking horns over this right now on MSNBC. Steele was interrupting and Dean smacked him down for it..."EXCUSE me...may I have an opportunity to make MY point? Well, thank you very MUCH!"

1. i'm amazed boner can keep his position. he's completely inept.

he obviously can neither represent the house republican position, nor can he keep the house republicans in line.

can't lead, can't follow.

completely inept. useless to negotiate with, except to the extent it furthers the image of republicans as inept, intransigent imbiciles.

2. "We can't do our job unless the President does it for us!!".......House republicans

Here we go again

3. I think they know the Republican code.

They probably mean they want Obama to eliminate the Estate Tax or something as part of the deal.

It's like when Republicans wanted to make cuts to Social Security and they asked for Obama's "leadership". They want him to put his name on an unpopular action so they can blame him later.

4. He needs help all right, from AA and a shrink. n/t

5. Eric Kanker's shiv is just microns away from Boner's back, and getting closer

I saw that exchange between Dean and Steele who was again braying the talking point that Dems controlled the Senate and Dean would have none of it, reminding Steele of the filibuster and that Steele was filibustering the conversation.
