Boehner's big lie.
Yesterday he said that Pelosi's statement caused his tenous GOP coalition to "go south." Yet, nobody has been able to produce even one name of anybody who changed his/her vote on the bailout due to anything Pelosi said. Nobody "went south." Several Repubs have admitted it already. Boehner lied, pure and simple, probably to deflect blame away from his own ineptitude as minority leader.

3. Good summary.
He's just passing the blame for his own failures, in true Repuke style. He's the leader of his party in the House but couldn't deliver the votes for his president.

And ironically, the Repukes who were supposedly so angered by Nancy dissing their president claim that they retaliated by dissing their president -- by rejecting his legislation!

6. I like the leadership squabbles and dizziness in the Repub camp.
He lied. And his Eric Cantor lied. And McLame was supposed to Saaave the Daaaay again and didn't.
So who is in charge of those idiots?

Glad to see them squirming.

Rotten of them to do their usual lying and be running lots of Blame Dems ads on TV in certain states.
