Negotiations With Boner's Party

Given Boner and his merry band of Teabaggers are willing to fiscally burn down our country to the benefit of the gilded gated one percent doesn't that discussion with Boner run a foul of our national policy not to negotiate with terrorists? Just wondering.

But hostage taking, terrorists. Traitors to our country. They don't care about our economy they care about the billionaires in it keeping all their cash out of circulation.

They would abolish Democracy and institute a Plutocracy, if they could. They care about capitalism operating unchecked, regulated, and unsupervised. And that is all.

Cigs and his cocktails and his golf game. The PResident should tell Boehner, "I got a hundred million left in my campaign coffers and I'm coming after you and Cantor and Bachman and Ryan and another 15 baggers and we will put you in the unemployment line in '14.

Democrats can learn some lessons from this election too. The Republican Party is controled by the wealthy. Those CEOs, that threatened to fire workers in those red states should be a clue for Democrats, about why some of these workers vote Republican.

It reminds me of the Middle Ages and serfdom. Those workers seem to depend a lot on their Bosses. They don't have Unions either which you find less of in the South. What the Democrats need to do is educate these voters at the grassroots, who protects their real interests. Boerhner is working for corporate interests but he goes back to his District and pretends that he is working for the ordinary Joe. So the Democrats need to go around Boerhner and talk to his voters, to expose who Boerhner is really working for. It will be good to expose where Boerhner gets his funding from also, since he was elected to Congress. He seems like a foreman, that keeps people in line for the Bosses.
