#1 Maybe Hillary was smart enough to send a few juicy emails to Boehner. And he was dumb enough to respond embarrassingly.

#2 We don't call it the Beltway Party for nothing. All to keep the rubes in line believing that old canard about 'democracy', just so you'll fork over your sons and daughters to bleed for them.

#3 Highly partisan? A third party such as the IG is the proper way to examine this issue? The IG is like turning the fox loose to investigate the murder in the hen house.

For crying-out-loud Congress is the third party. We elected the Pubs to control Congress to address this kind of problem. Who gives a flip whether or not you offend Queen Hillary. Go after the truth wherever that takes you. Take the gloves off and start swinging or the Pubs will be sucking hind tit again and again. This guy is a huge disappointment. Both parties are trying to protect their mutual admiration and beneficial elite society in Washington. Better start worrying about the constituents and not the special interests. Hillary and Bill along with "O" have paved the way for the Russians to take over control of our nuclear resources.

#4 Weak kneed? More like dropping to his knees for the dhimocrats load again.

#5 Sorry, folks. I can't keep voting Republican. I just can't do it. I know, I know. If I don't vote Republican then Hildebeest will get elected. But with Republicans like Boehner in Congress and Bush in the White House it won't make any difference anyway.

#7 I'm with Ebbang. Vote in the primaries, but don't feel any obligation to vote for RINO's in the general just because they have an 'R' by their name.

Conservatives are to the Republican party what blacks are to the Democrats. They take us for granted because they can.

#8 I'll vote. I'll cast a protest vote to one of the third parties. I'd consider voting Republican in the general election if they nominate somebody beside Bush. But they'll have to convince me. I'm just not automatically voting for the R candidate just because he or she has an R by their name.

Boehner's had eight years to resist Obama's recklessness but he's done nothing. Boehner and McConnel might as well be a couple of Donkeycrats themselves.

I look back at W Bush's two terms in office with remorse. He got caught flat footed on 9/11 and then again with the mortgage meltdown. Sorry, but those hijackers got into the country on his watch and they were allowed to roam freely. And now nobody in either party shows any sign of keeping their kind out of here yet. I want them all out of here. Bush's response was to go after Saddam Hussein who had nothing to do with 9/11. It was all the Soddies and the Paks and he did nothing about them.

Then there was 2008 and the collapse of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. It didn't take a genius to see that coming. It was Bush's job to see it coming and do something about it. He failed.

Finally, when he said we need illegal immigrants to "do the jobs that Americans won't" that was the last straw. I don't see a dime's worth of difference between the Bushes and the Clintons.

The problem in California for the past several elections is that the primaries are all over before they come to this state so we have no influence in the nominating process. Then in the general election the state goes blue no matter what. So it won't matter how I vote anyway and if that's the case I might as well protest.

It has nothing to do with eating. Fatback and grits suit me just fine.

#9 I'm with you. By the time the primary gets to Washington the nominee is already decided. By the time our general election votes are counted the winner is most likely already declared.

I held my nose and voted for McCain. Voted for Mitt because I thought, with all his faults, he's a decent guy and successful businessman.

I won't vote for Jeb Bush I'd rather my vote was wasted on a third party.

At least then, When the Sh*t hits the fan a democrat is standing front and center in front of it!

#10 Boehner and others will go with the flow. The only way to make things work is to change the flow. That means a landslide. Don't get wobbly yet, there is plenty of time for that.

I see a number of decent candidates this go around and have some hope.

#11 "That means a landslide"

So, a bigger victory than the historical wins in 2010 and 2014?

#12 A landslide of man-mayonnaise that the Republican leadership keeps queuing up for you mean.

#13 #6 Does this mean you will also stop eating because you don't like grits and fatback ?

I think it's more like, "I'll have cracklin', instead."
