So, are you saying that congress should not have to be subject to their constituents?

Also from the comments:

Boehner keeps talking as if nobody has ever discussed spending cuts at all, and that just isn't true. Spending cuts have already been made. Not only that, but sequestration has forced even more.

How much does Boehner want? There's only so much cutting one can do before causing severe damage to the economy and completely destroying the recovery we have had so far.

Oh. Right. Of course this is what Boehner wants. Scorched earth. He doesn't care if the country is destroyed, if the country's economy is destroyed, or the country's credit rating is destroyed. He will wreck whatever it takes to ensure this presidency is discredited.

I remember back when the Republicans were merely another major political party with a more conservative ideology than the Democrats. Now they're just pure evil.

Of course representatives should be responsive to their constituents. The problem is the way in which constituents are grouped--the gerrymandering of districts.

It is about time John B. has some guts to stand up for what is right.Hopefully he will not change his mind at the last moment.

Hilarious! You're really saying Bohner is showing guts? laugh You know Obamacare has offers some preventative care options for the onset of dementia. Even John B. doesn't know what he's standing up for or against, nor do the people standing beside him. Bet you're hoping he leads us to a credit default clusterf*ck too, because that'll really take some guts.

A very good summary of things. Why the Dems feel they must make a stand, and the Pubs side pretty well covered too.

"Ahm Speaking On Behalf of The The 'Merican People...!"

no..
...what I'm saying is that
HE HAS NO RIGHT TO CLAIM HE'S REPRESENTING "ME"

Because As Far As I'M Concerned.. HE DOESN'T!

I SICK & TIRED of These BLOW-HARDS CLAIMING That
They Are Speaking For "ALL" AMERICANS!

HOW F'N DARE HE Take It Upon Himself To INCLUDE "ME"
Even REMOTELY Among In His IMAGINARY Supporters!


I Can Say With 100% CERTAINTY That I DIDN'T, WON'T, And
WOULD NEVER Vote For Him ~ OR HIS IDEOLOGICAL BS !!!
And I RESENT IT With EVERY FIBER IN MY BODY that he
Takes it upon himself to EVER CLAIM To Do SO!

edit:
This has been a Generic Rant
brought to you by me finally getting sick enough
of these a-holes trying to claim that they're
Speaking with the Authority of EVERY Citizen
to finally take the trouble to state my feelings.

(I must be starting to feel better... smile
... I'd been too sick all week to type all that.)
