R U 486, or just R U defending those in “poverty” bringing in only $900,000 per year?

It’s been almost a week since I’ve seen a clip of boehner defending ‘small’ businesses. Of course, when Boehner says ‘small businesses’, he’s talking about protecting Koch Industries, Bain Capital, Bechtel, and all the other corporations defined as small only by the tax code.

Boehner will fight to the death of his speakership to defend them.

When, oh when, will the right leave their alternate universe and join reality? They are such an embarrassment to America.

Great cartoon! “The GOP congress has a way to shut that whole thing down.” We knew that the GOP was not equipped to govern, W proved that. But now they’ve proved that they can’t even work with anyone who IS competent to govern. Who funded these neo-noodniks, and are they re-evaluating their priorities yet?

An abortion, (early stage) is not the same thing as contraception. It is also not killing babies yet.
That is what happened in Connecticut.

“I prefer IM469 as a birth control.”
There are still places where that’s illegal, too …

Don’t be silly. They are regrouping with an eye to insuring that no Democrat replaces Obama in ’16, or sooner, if they can find a way to impeach him for something.
It’s going to be very hard to get rid of them :-/

the speaker can’t lead his party. he had to pull his own bill for lack of support. recessed the house until after the holidays when the fiscal cliff hits. the gop are so incompetent. his speakership is in jeopardy.
