1. What does this have to do with John Kerry? nt

[bluestateguy]

2. Nothing. This is the OFFICIAL JOHN BOEHNER SCANDAL THREAD

[New Earth]

3. LOL

this is so hilarious. i have been arguing with people all night on another forum about the Kerry shit, now this. i can't wait to go over and post it :D

[Cosmocat]

25. The fact is ...

As much as these freaks jumped around like a bunch of primates over this thing the last two days, the republican party has spent well over a year finding ways to blame the military for what is going on in Iraq ...

[David Zephyr]

4. Shouldn't there be two hundred threads?

;-)

[kestrel91316]

5. Can somebody explain to me why we have to hide all out

anti-Boehner comments here on this thread, but there wasn't one for all the anti-Kerry threads?

Why shouldn't we paper the front page with anti-Boehner stuff???

[NoPasaran]

6. Boehner is a republican

And we prefer to criticize Democrats here.
:sarcasm:

[kestrel91316]

27. I am pretty much convinced that most of the criticism of good Dems here

is by a bunch of IVANS. They sure are earning their paychecks lately, too!

[texasleo]

7. Boehner hates our troops

[alfredo]

9. Yeah, he says it is the soldier's fault not Rumsfeld.

[stillcool]

8. cat got everyone's tongue?..

goes to show you how co-opted we are by the spectacle. Hello...hello...is anybody in there?

[JDPriestly]

10. Boehner is the worst Representative left

now that Delay, et al. have left. Boehner betrays his constituents. He throws tidbits of bacon to his district and saves the honied ham for the big corporate supporters of the Republican party like Halliburton.

We all know why Boehner defended Bush, Rumsfeld and friends and criticized the real heroes on the ground in Iraq -- because Bush, Rumsfeld and friends control the Halliburton, etc. money bags. It's just a scam on the voters. Boehner is just hopeless. The voters in his district who vote for him election after election are fools. Unfortunately, the whole country gets stuck with the stupidity and corruption of Boehner and his ilk. C'mon, Oxford Ohio and environs -- you can do better than Boehner. Please -- for the rest of the country -- boot the guy out next Tuesday.

12. I demand that Republicans distance themselves from him

and cancel appearances with him. By not condeming him, they are condoning what he said.

[ClassWarrior]

11. Heh-heh... Heh-heh... You said Boehner...

:evilgrin:

NGU.

[phiddle]

13. To be known as "Boehner's Boner".

[DaveJ]

14. Boehner has nothing to apologize for...

He blames the troops and claims Rumsfeld and Bush are not responsible. That's apparently what Republicans stand for.

[Bluebear]

15. Our troops deserve an apology! Also families of those lost!

Immediately!

[KittyWampus]

16. No no no, it's obvious DU'ers are happier rehashing the Kerry crap than

trying to get this onto the news.

[Renew Deal]

17. Boehner throws the troops under the bus for political reasons.

:argh:

[Cobalt Violet]

18. So when will this make 3-4 news cycles?

Some liberal media we have.

[OzarkDem]

19. Has Boehner apologized yet?

Why is there no leadership in the GOP who can deal with this mess?

[Coexist]

20. I think its disgusting that he REALLY thinks that the blame for Iraq

does NOT lie at the feet of Donald Rumsfeld.

What the fuck.

[radfringe]

21. so exactly why is it the General's fault?

bush is the decider, he's the commander 'n chief, he's the leader, he's the boss of generals...

that boehner is blaming the generals is not surprising. bush has been doing it for months in his Presidential dolittle routine.. i.e. "I walk with the Generals, talk with the Generals, Grunt and squeak and squawk with the Generals, And they could squeak and squawk and speak and talk to me. "

Setting them up to take the blame when Iraq goes up in flames...

[Pacifist Patriot]

22. Oh so tempting! But I'd probably get my hand slapped.

I would so love to start a thread with the headline...

23. anyone got an Olbermann link to send this to?

[bluestateguy]

24. Discuss some more

Impacting....

[wicket]

26. It's hitting google news:

[OzarkDem]

28. MSM still not picking it up

should we make some phone calls?

[wicket]

29. Absolutely!!!

:kick:

[Warren DeMontague]

30. Has he apologized yet?

What is the pundit class saying? The American People NEED TO KNOW!

[Warren DeMontague]

31. I think the question is, what do his comments indicate about the mentality of the

Republican Party, and their commitments to the troops.

And what level of apology will be enough?
