First,
you must understand that Boehner is a GobGop: a Good Old Boy of the
Grand Old Party. The GobGops' goal is to keep the present system funded by the
Bigs: Big Business, Big Pharma, Big Oil, and Big Banking. If you do not
understand this, then you are as naive as a Democrat who thinks Obama speaks
for The Common Man.
Boehner
shilled for Hank Paulson and Goldman Sachs by begging the Republicans to vote
for the $750+ billion Big Bank Bailout in 2008. Watch his emotional performance
here.
"We just have to do it!" No, they didn't. Ron Paul told it straight. He is no GobGop.
Boehner
is going to do it again. He has already told us what he intends to do.
The
obvious target is Obamacare. The Tea Party voters hate it. They regard it as an
affront.
You've
probably seen this. It's all over the Web. It's supposedly from Maxine, the cartoon character who speaks for
geezerdom.
Let me get this straight . . . . We're going to be
"gifted" with a health care plan
we are forced to purchase and fined if we don't,
Which purportedly covers at least ten million more people, without adding a single new doctor,
but provides for 16,000 new IRS agents,
written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it,
passed by a Congress that didn't read it
but exempted themselves from it,
and signed by a President who smokes,
with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes,
for which we'll be taxed for four years before any benefits take effect,
by a government which has already bankrupted Social Security and Medicare,
all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese,
and financed by a country that's broke!!!!!

'What the
heck could possibly go wrong?'
This is
all true. Tea Party people know it's all true. They threw the rascals out . . .
but left enough of them behind to sell us out.
Boehner
told a Fox News interviewer what he plans to do: (1) repeal Obamacare; (2) pass
another heath care law. You can see the video here. Here is a direct quote:
"This health care bill will ruin the best health care system
in the world, and it will bankrupt our country. We are going to repeal
ObamaCare and replace it with common sense reforms that will bring down the
cost of health insurance."
Big Pharma
is not threatened by this. Big Pharma will clean up either way.
If
Boehner is politically savvy, he will have the Republicans introduce a repeal
bill as soon as he takes over as Speaker of the House. The following will then
take place.
1. A straight party vote will pass it.
2. In the Senate, the Democrats will not pass it.
3. Boehner will then begin a two-year campaign:
2. In the Senate, the Democrats will not pass it.
3. Boehner will then begin a two-year campaign:
"The Republican Party is committed to a repeal of Obamacare.
In 2012, you will have another opportunity to vote the Democrats out of power
in the Senate, and give the Republicans a President who will sign this
bill."
He will
play to the Tea Party. He will gain their trust. He will throw down the
gauntlet on health insurance from day one. He will hammer relentlessly on this
for two years.
The goal
here is to get the Tea Party voters into his camp. He is a GobGop. But it's
obvious that he will score lots of points by doing this.
They will
not cut spending. They will not raise taxes. They will preside over a gigantic
deficit.
The pork
will continue to flow.
The Tea
Party people will sense betrayal. Then we will see how committed they are to
getting the spending under control . . . in 2015. Too late, I think.
The
sell-out is coming. It will be business as usual. The GobGops now control the
House. They can posture all they want, knowing the Senate will block their
token spending cuts. The GobGops will scream: "If we only controlled the
Senate! If we only controlled the White House! Then we could get spending under
control!" You know: the way they did under Bush.
It will
make great political theater. Punch and Judy will perform a real donnybrook. A
good time will be had by all.
The Bigs
will get bigger. They always do.
Forward
this to friends. Post it on Twitter and Facebook. The troops need to be warned
what's coming.
