Boehner: 'Digging Ourselves Out of a Deep Hole'

Unfortunately for the GOP, Boehner is the leader is just say 'no'. This guy is a younger version of Cheney.

If he wasn't such a sad man I would be laughing! What a ridiculous politician. WHO keeps voting for this guy???

True to a guy's sense of direction.

This guy is just clueless is he? Why is he the minority leader anyway?

I'm sure that the American middle class - which has been decimated by the deregulation and "patriotic" economic inequality of conspicuous consumption and Reaganomics - cannot WAIT to see what John Boehner has in store for them.

read the Miranda rights?? not the Miranda rights!! It's,...it's...it's almost like we're following the constitution or something!!!!

Apparently, some Bagram detainees were also Mirandized by the FBI under the Bush administration. Until the GOP refrains from so much hypocisy and begins being intellectually honest, they will remain in the "deep hole".

Did he say Fiscal responsibility and National security? Right wing terrorist have killed a man last week and this week in America, while rush,hanity,beck and orielly call for violence on a daily basis. Help the middle class, to where their grave? Nobody has caused more pain and agony for the middle class than the "Wrong wing party of NO" I'll bet he did not clear this with Spongerush Fatpants, the chairman of the Wrong wing party of NO.

The GOP is just digging the hole deeper, with all their hateful extremism. They can dig themselves right into Hell for all I care.

For the neocons it always comes down to how to spin it - what image they're inventing this week. Bottom line is that their true agenda only benefits the rich and powerful, not America.

Boehner really doesn't have a clue about the middle class in America. Apparently he doesn't even understand that all of us regular people would prefer to be able to take our kids and ourselves to the doctor when we get sick instead of just dying quietly so we won't bother him. He doesn't seem to get it that his party did this to us. It cuts no ice that democrats had the House and Senate for the last two years of Bush because the Republicans had the White House and enough votes in Congress to enforce their just say no junk. The got away with obstructionism for two years in the hope that it would make the country angry with the democrats. They didn't care at all that the country was brought to it's knees. The 2008 election season should have been a clue for them that America is sick of that, but they still don't get it. Don't expect to pick up a lot of seats in 2010. We're all wide awake and paying attention and we've mad as h*ll about what you did to us.

OBVIOUSLY, being in the tanning tank too long has seared this man's "brain". He doesn't look stupid, but everything he says IS! The events of the last 2 weeks have shown most of the public that this R extremeness is not benefiting the US. Gates comments today only add to that.

whats with this no miranda rights to people accused of crimes.

either they are criminals and have the rights of criminals or they are pows and have the rights of pows.

the want they classified as terrorists and no rights.

doing wwii the japanees violated the rights of pows. we held the high moral ground and won.

doing the cold war the commies tortured. we held the high moral ground and one.

now the republicans/conservatives want us to give up the moral ground. the second we do that we lose and the terrorists win.

"Boehner also acknowledged that the GOP hasn’t done a good enough to job shaking the “party of no” label."

Well, perhaps if every time Boehner held a press conference it wasn't, invariably, a "NO" of some type. Negative criticism is just as like saying "NO". A good start would be a press conference where Boehner talked about a new idea to solve a problem and how he intends to work across the aisle to get it done.

NAH! That's just crazy talk.

Typo: "Boehner also acknowledged that the GOP hasn’t done a good enough to job shaking the “party of no” label."
Lose the word "to".

How appropriate that he said they were "digging themselves out of a hole"--how exactly does one do that?
Keep digging GOP!!!

Unfortunately he has made a number of errors that have made the GOP look a little ridiculous. His very well packaged GOP version of their stimulous plan was scetchy at best. This was his idea and it was ridiculous. He is the leader of the "Party of No". I tend to just ignore him, because everything is a repeat of the day before.

He's a Republican ,what did you expect?

Not change I hope..

The Party of lies, deceit, distortion and alternate reality strikes again!

I think I see the problem; you can't dig yourself OUT of a hole, you have to climb out. That explains a lot....

Boehner "took it in the shorts with Bush-Cheney." What a nice image.

Maybe they can float out of this hole by filling it with John Boehner's tears.

All about getting into power isn't it? And isn't this th edefinition of saying no : He flatly predicted that his party’s efforts would prevent Obama from getting his summer agenda through the House by the August recess: “There’s no way to move a national energy tax and health care and 12 appropriations bills.”
Until these guys get that they have to actually give a carp about the middle class and in today's information age we can test your BS in a nanosecond on the intertubes, they will be playing blind mans bluff

The whole country is in a hole, a big one that will swallow all of us unless adults once again show up in DC. It doesn't matter much to me who wears what party jersey but if anyone thinks the difficulties we are facing are from one party or the other than they are surely dillusional or have their heads in a dark and stinky place.

Pathetic.

How do clowns like this find their way to Washington?

We really have to stop sending ignorant morons to do our governing. C'mon, Ohio, surely you've got somebody better than this, somewhere in your state!

No wonder this country is in such a mess. If this is the best we can do, kiss it goodbye.
