    The Charlie Brown Conservatives


    The Charlie Brown conservatives are insisting that we must cooperate with the Lucy Republicans of Washington. As if the likes of Mitch McConnell, John Boehner, Lindsey Graham, John McCain, Karl Rove, et al are suddenly going to become Jeffersonians and start fighting for strictly limited government. That will happen when mules qualify to run in the Kentucky Derby.


    At least 50% of American voters want the Four Pillars of Reform. The ones who don’t are the Democrats and the neocons who control the Republican Party. Our Four Pillars of Reform are “cornerstones of sanity.” They will bring about a dramatically refurbished America with fervent support from conservatives, libertarians, and independents throughout the country.

    WND EXCLUSIVE

    OHIOANS HATE BOEHNER MORE THAN THIS GUY

    Speaker's approval drops below state's notorious sports villain

    Published: 20 hours ago
    DREW ZAHN


    Cleveland Cavalier fans burning LeBron James jerseys


    Residents of Ohio were mighty mad in 2010 when hometown hero LeBron “King” James left the Cleveland Cavaliers to play basketball in Miami instead.

    But today, they’re not nearly as mad at “King James” as they at “Speaker John.”
    According to a survey from Public Policy Polling, House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, holds a whopping disapproval rating among Ohio voters that dwarfs their lingering venom for the reviled basketball star.
    According to the survey of voters taken earlier this month, only 20 percent approve of the job Boehner is doing in Congress, while 59 percent disapprove.
    James, by comparison, enjoys a 32-percent approval rating and 29-percent disapproval rating.
    Even at the peak of the basketball controversy in 2010, James’ approval rating only dipped to 19 percent, while his unfavorable rating topped out at 34 percent.
    As WND reported, recent GOP compromises on Obamacare, illegal immigration and spending have tarnished Boehner’s image, and the growing perspective the House speaker is just another “establishment” Republican is making it worse.
    Tea partiers in particular have grown dissatisfied with Boehner’s efforts, as a recent internal poll conducted by the Tea Party Patriots and reported by U.S. News found. Of the “tens of thousands” surveyed, 81.5 percent are dissatisfied with House GOP leadership and 74.1 percent would be willing to consider Boehner’s termination as speaker.
    The poll in Ohio similarly found that even among GOP voters in the state, Boehner is sitting at just 37 percent approval to 34 percent disapproval.
    Compounding the speaker’s troubles, as WND has reported, is Boehner’s refusal to approve a select committee for investigating the Benghazi scandal – a move that has been nothing short of a lightning rod for controversy inside the Republican Party.
    Despite allegations the CIA may be covering up a guns-to-terrorists scandal and the White House may have abandoned Americans to die in order to protect the secret, Boehner has entrusted already busy, existing House committees to look into it.
    Boehner’s reluctance to launch a more serious investigation has prompted a challenge from within his own party, as Rep. Frank Wolf, R-Va., introduced a resolution to establish a select committee.
    Over 160 House Republicans have co-sponsored the resolution demanding a heightened investigation. Boehner, however, has refused to bring it to a vote.
    This has further prompted Rep. Steve Stockman, R-Texas, to introduce H.Res. 306, a discharge petition that would overrule Boehner and force GOP leaders to allow a House vote on Wolf’s demand for a select committee.
    Stockman explained in an open letter to Boehner, “No standing committee has sweeping-enough jurisdiction nor do any of them possess sufficiently wide scope of action to ferret out and put all the pieces of this puzzle together when the administration intentionally is misleading and stonewalling Congress and the American people to keep the truth hidden.”
    “If I can get 218 Congressional Republicans to back me, a majority of the House,” Stockman explained on his website, “we will break through the D.C. stonewall and there will finally be a vote on creating the select committee to investigate Benghazi.”
    On his July 23 program, talk radio host Mark Levin blasted the speaker for resisting his own party’s clear wishes and speculated Boehner and President Obama must have “cut some kind of a deal” not to allow the truth out about Benghazi.
    “John Boehner does not want to get to the bottom of what took place in Benghazi,” Levin opined. “He’s been asked over and over again by a majority of the Republicans in the House to set up a special investigative committee, as is the tradition in these types of investigations. So you concentrate expertise and resources and time in one special committee rather than multiple committees that are also investigating other matters and overseeing other matters and handling bills and so forth.”
    Levin continued, “It’s obvious at this point, ladies and gentlemen, that we have to draw a very sad conclusion: John Boehner does not want to know what took place in Benghazi on that horrific day. And I’m honestly starting to think that he’s cut some kind of deal with Obama, because why else would he do this?”

    Levin’s full comments can be heard below:

    Video at the page Link:

    Similar questions are being asked by the organization Special Operations Speaks, or SOS, which is preparing to bring the Benghazi headache back to Boehner’s home town.
    According to multiple reports, the organization is purchasing ad space on full-size billboards in Boehner’s district that suggest if it were Congressmen killed in Benghazi, instead of merely diplomats and agents, there would be a more significant investigation.
    The billboards will encourage people to call Boehner’s office and demand creation of a select committee.
    “We know this is a bold step, and it may raise some well-coiffed hairs on the back of John Boehner’s neck,” said SOS Co-Founder Larry Bailey. “But the fact is that he, and he alone, is blocking a full-scale Watergate-style investigation of one of the deadliest scandals in U.S. history … a scandal that reaches into the inner sanctum of the Oval Office.”

    And that’s not all
    Boehner’s troubles, however, may be just beginning.
    As Politico reports, the widening divide between Boehner and the tea party, indeed between Republican leadership and GOP base a whole, is already spilling out onto the campaign trail for 2014.
    In Idaho, for example, GOP Rep. Mike Simpson, whom Politico describes as “a longtime figure of the Washington order … a powerful Appropriations Committee cardinal and one of House Speaker John Boehner’s best friends,” is fighting a surprising primary battle against Bryan Smith, an attorney backed by the anti-tax organization Club for Growth.
    The battle is revealing a trend that may sorely test GOP leadership in 2014: Primary challengers who can make electoral hay by blasting incumbent, even “conservative” Republicans as wobbly Washington insiders.
    “Idaho’s 2nd Congressional District is turning into a proxy war for the middle-right of the Republican Party and the right-right of the Republican Party,” said Phil Hardy, an Idaho Republican operative and a political analyst in the state. “It’s already happening.”
    And if 2014 does become a primary battle between Boehner’s “insiders” and tea-party upstarts, a July Pew Research Center survey suggests Boehner may be facing a serious challenge.
    Though Pew found tea-party sympathizers are a minority of Republicans overall (37 percent), they’re much more active when it comes to voting in primaries.
    “Overall, 62 percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning voters who agree with the tea party say they ‘always’ vote in primary elections,” Pew reports. “By comparison, only 45 percent of non-tea-party Republican voters say they always vote in primaries.”
    That 17-point gap in participation translates to tea partiers turning out in higher numbers, where they could make up nearly half (49 percent) of Republicans voting in the primaries.
    Considering the Tea Party Patriots poll that found more than 80 percent unhappy with the GOP House and 74 percent ready to fire the speaker, Boehner and friends may face a stiff challenge indeed.

    This is what I don't understand. Why aren't there any demonstrations in front of the district office of Speaker Boehner in regards to this so-called immigration reform treason legislation, Obama's clearly criminally forged birth certificate and use of a social security # of a dead man which he's been obstructing a Congressional investigation into, the continued funding of the communist control program entitled Obamacare, etc. etc. etc.

    What type of people live in this guy's district and in the surrounding counties within a short driving distance to his office? NOBODY seems to be putting any pressure on this man locally? There should be a crowd outside the guy's district office just about every weekend this summer considering the critical issues coming to a head in Congress during the next few months?

    Follow the money. The globalist rinos control John Boehner and the Rino Party.

    The way it works is that if you buck the globalists (Boehner, McCain, Rubio, Graham, etc.) YOU GET BLACKBALLED. They may even throw in some paid political smear ads against you, depending on who you piss off and how much money it may have cost them.

    Once the rinos blackball you, the GOP pulls every ounce of campaign funding for your next election, and you DON'T GET REELECTED.

    Any questions?

    BETWEEN THE LINES

    Is Boehner a slow learner or a traitor?

    Exclusive: Joseph Farah urges citizens to 'save America from becoming the ObamaNation'

    Joseph Farah
    Published: 9 hours ago


    A recent story in Politico led with this: “House Republicans have no idea how they’re going to lift the debt ceiling this fall – top aides and lawmakers freely admit it. But Republicans say their best hope is to try to leverage Democrats’ desire to blunt sequester cuts to get something in return for raising the nation’s borrowing limit.”
    If you’re like me, you’re asking yourself this question: Why is House Speaker John Boehner having sleepless nights worrying about how he’s going to give Barack Obama just what he needs to continue destroying America – a hike in the debt limit, which is better than a blank check to spend as much money as he likes, all money the U.S. government doesn’t have?
    After the 2010 election, it took me about five minutes to realize Republicans in the House had been dealt a winning hand to defund Obamacare and hundreds, maybe thousands, of other worthless, counterproductive and destructive programs like it in one fell swoop – by freezing the debt limit and halting the borrowing-and-spending gravy train immediately.
    That’s why I started the “No More Red Ink” campaign to remind Republicans in the House they had the power to return the U.S. to something resembling constitutionally limited government with one negative vote on raising the debt limit.
    To date, more than 1.5 million red letters have been delivered to House Republicans who, it would seem, are without excuse as to the simple idea that both houses of Congress must approve a hike in the debt limit before it can be signed by Obama.
    Experience more of Joseph Farah’s no-nonsense truth-telling in his books, audio and video products, featured in the WND Superstore
    Nevertheless, it appears Republican leadership has done everything possible since Boehner became speaker to serve as enablers of Obama’s war on the Constitution, America’s prosperity and our way of life.
    I guess it’s going to take a few million more letters, generated by you, to awaken them from their Democrat-accommodationist policies. I urge you to join the one and only campaign of its kind that can literally change the direction of America with only Republican votes!
    But I suspect the Politico article is exactly right. As of now, Boehner and his misguided leadership are trying to figure out how they can give Obama what he wants. That’s what I hear from my own disgruntled sources among the majority Republican House. They tell me it’s even worse than I know!
    I have no doubts.
    Because of Boehner wanted to stifle Obama, there’s a simple way to do it.
    In the past, Obama, like a spoiled child, has simply threatened to stop paying U.S. military personnel, refuse to send out Social Security checks, default on its obligations to service the enormous debt he and his enablers have permitted to be racked up and shut down the government if he doesn’t get everything he wants.
    With that in mind, Republican House members should pass a continuing resolution to ensure that the U.S. military is paid, Social Security checks be issued and debt obligations be met in the event of a stalemate on a debt increase.
    Any fool knows the card Obama is going to play, but Republicans who control the House have a better hand. They should certainly know by now what is coming. This is the way to trump Obama’s obvious next move – the one to which he predictably resorts in times like this. If Obama still wants to shut down the government, so be it! It will save the taxpayers even more money.
    Republicans don’t need to do this secretly. They ought to hold a press conference to announce it. They need to point out that Obama is not an emperor. He’s not a fuhrer. He’s not a dictator. That’s not the kind of government we have in the U.S. And the U.S. is rapidly going broke. If we want to avoid the inevitable fiscal cliff, it’s time to defund Obamacare, an increasingly unpopular program. It’s time to cut spending on existing entitlement programs. It’s time to reform Medicare. It’s time to eliminate wasteful, unconstitutional and harmful government programs. It’s time to return to the principle of limited government.
    Next year is a midterm election year. If Republicans in the House don’t do something dramatic like this now, they won’t be around after the next election. And they won’t deserve to be.
    Do you agree?
    If so, join me in turning up the heat on Boehner and his accomplices right now. Sadly, it’s the only game in town. And it may be our last chance to save America from becoming the ObamaNation.
