John Boehner: “Violence and threats are unacceptable. They have no place in a political debate.”

Let me just be clear here. A debt limit increase without any reforms to lower our deficit just isn`t going to cut it.

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

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.

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.
