John Boehner: “When the time comes I will again insist. My simple principle of cuts and reforms greater than the debt limit increase.”

The modern Republican Party is filled with, as John Boehner put it, people who spend more time tearing things apart than actually building anything.

For a bill that was supposed to be about jobs, jobs, jobs, has turned into a bill that`s all about spending, spending, and spending.

I once met him in New York during the Obama years to plead with him to put a leash on some of the crazies he was putting on the air. It was making my job trying to accomplish anything conservative that much harder.

I want to work with you. But I`m just stuck.
