NationalJournal: After going after outside conservative groups Wednesday, House Speaker John Boehner is digging in.
At a Thursday morning press conference, the speaker was even more biting over budget disagreements, saying that the groups are "misleading their followers, they're pushing our members in places where they don't want to be, and frankly I think they've lost all credibility."
The Democrat's Republican clown has the gall to question ANYONE else's credibility? And on top of lying about these groups supposedly 'never seeing' this deal to boot!
theRightScoop: Mark Levin said last night that Boehner’s own people were calling media people over the weekend to talk about the pending deal. So when he wonders why they criticized it before they saw the agreement, it’s because these groups already had an idea of what the deal would be.Just as Levin suspected, the man who feigns outrage and ignorance as to why conservative groups would oppose it, is the same man whose office leaked it out! Something familiar about that, no?
NJ: One of those conservative groups responded questioning Boehner's credibility. "When it comes to 'credibility,' actions speak louder than words." FreedomWorks President Matt Kibbe said in a statement. "And right now, it looks like the Speaker is leading the charge for spending increases and recruiting Democrat votes in the House to help get it done." Dan Holler, communications director for Heritage Action, found the speaker's comments to be "bizarre." "Everybody in town knew what the deal looked like," at least in part due to leaks out of the speaker's office, he told National Journal. "Everything we warned about...is all true."We've heard chatter for years that 'both parties are the same'...well, this Speaker and those who go-along are fundamentally transforming the party to solidify that belief.
As an aside, Boehner seems to be carrying Obama's water in respect to deviating the narrative away from his broken Obamacare disaster, while simultaneously paving the way for an amnesty showdown. And this guy has the audacity to even call himself a Republican? Before Boehner questions conservatives' credibility, he needs to take a hard look in the mirror and determine where his allegiance lies.
