Boehner’s announcement that he is resigning may explain his constant crying, but it’s really a sign of how insane the GOP in Congress has become. Apparently, the more extreme members were out to replace him as Speaker anyway.
He’s too “liberal” for them because after all, sometimes he actually will work with the other side when it produces a result that is good for America.
I am not sure yet whether this is good news or bad news. On one hand, the more extreme the GOP gets, the less likely they are to actually accomplish anything. On the other hand, the more extreme they are, the worse it is for America.
The system works best when both sides negotiate, work together, and accomplish goals. The extreme position of “my way or I’m shutting down government” serves no one.
So this resignation is a bit of a surprise. Maybe the Pope said something to him last night that made the difference.
In my estimation, the true “RINOs” are the Teapers. I dare to dream that this is the start of the actual GOP getting their party back. Of course, that’s just the first step. The whole crew, left right and center – with VERY few exceptions, is corrupt. Money out of politics needs to be the next order of business.
What are the chances.

The real GOP is all about money and only money. The Republican business faction fears the Tea Party because they know they are insane and will do incredibly stupid things that will cost them a lot of money. That is the price they pay for allowing the radical insane right to drive the sane Republicans out of the party.
