Speaker Boner has plenty of access to the military. He has oversight and a committee that knows EXACTLY was is going on in Libya. He is one of the best informed legislators on Capital Hill. I want to know why he didn't solicite the President to work with the UN Coalition to intercede on a temporary basis to disarm Libya.
So, that said. Boner has NO reason to be arrogant or questioning. The President is doing his job. I only wish I could say the same thing about Boner.
No. I do not respect a man that pumps out DYSFUNCTIONAL legislation that has no purpose except for political volley.
Do I believe Boner when he says they want to repeal the Health Care Law to ? REPLACE ? it.
FIRST.
Where is the legislation that would replace it? IT DOESN'T EXIST. NOR. WILL IT. Even if the "Affordable Care Act" was repealed.
LIAR. SCOUNDREL. MANIPULATOR. POLITICAL HACK.
That is Speaker Boner in a nutshell.
Want a hanky, John?
Joining rising unrest on both sides (click title to entry - thank you) of the congressional aisle, Speaker John Boehner sent a letter to President Obama today asking for clarity on the U.S. military mission in Libya.
"I respect your authority as Commander-in-Chief and support our troops as they carry out their mission," Boehner wrote. "But I and many other members of the House of Representatives are troubled that U.S. military resources were committed to war without clearly defining for the American people, the Congress, and our troops what the mission in Libya is and what America's role is in achieving the mission."
Boehner said he ultimately wanted "a clear and robust assessment of the scope, objective, and purpose of our mission in Libya and how it will be achieved."
The speaker included numerous questions that he asked the president to respond to completely. They range from whether the mission can end if Qaddafi is still in power; to how much longer the United States will lead the international coalition's military action; to how much the mission would realistically cost. Boehner also wanted to know how long U.S. military forces would stay a part of the mission - especially if Qaddafi stays in power....
