John Boehner’s In Charge?

U.S. President Barack Obama is leaving the country this week to pay a visit to Israel. Meanwhile Vice President Joe Biden is returning to the “Land of the Free” after representing our country in the inaugural mass for Pope Francis in Rome.

(Hopefully he didn’t play grab ass at the Vatican).

Why does this matter? It doesn’t … although for a period of roughly twenty minutes Tuesday evening neither leader will be on American soil, the first time that’s happened since Obama took office in January 2009. In fact there’s a story in The Washington Post which strongly suggests Biden moved up his return trip to Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland in an effort to make sure this window of time was as narrow as possible.

You know … in case U.S. Speaker John Boehner (RINO-Ohio) decides to stage a coup or anything …

Which brings us to our point … given Boehner’s unconditional surrender to Obama on fiscal issues, what’s the point of having a “Republican” in the line of succession at all?

Hell, at the rate he’s betraying the stated GOP position on taxes and spending, a Boehner coup might wind up being even more expensive than Obama’s second term – and more damaging to the American free market.

Such is the sorry state of the “Republican” brand in America …

How can you not expect to get screwed somehow when the guy in charge has a name so closely read as “boner”? At least we know that he’ll only have 20 minutes so it’ll have to be a “quickie”.

What could BoneHead do in 20 minutes

Colonel, would you please hand me the Football

Colonel, would you please read the codes on your Biscuit as I read mine

OK Colonel, on the sound of 3 turn your key to the right

Well Colonel, I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to read the Times and the Post in the morning

(Yes, I do know the Football and the Biscuit have gone the same route as the Pinto, Vega and Gremlin)

Nobody is in charge of Washington! There is no leadership being displayed in Washington on either the Republican side or the Democratic side.
