Mark Levin says that there are no constitutionalists in the places of power in the Republican Party, that we are governed by statists (Democrats) and neo-statists (Republicans) and many in Congress think it’s their job to get in line with the Speaker instead of getting in line with the constitution and their constituents. Levin refers to a New York Times article yesterday where Boehner told the Republican House to fall in line via a conference call so that they could avoid “nasty showdowns that marked the last two years”. According to the article many of the GOP on the call “took their dose” of the bitter medicine instead of revolting like they had in the last 2 years.

Levin believes that Boehner and his leadership team are a huge problem in the House, calling Boehner an intellectual lightweight who is constantly outmaneuvered by Obama and the left. He says that Boehner is constantly drawing lines in the sand only to go out and take a swim in the ocean.

Levin says a lot more and you can listen below:

I'm sorry to say Almighty Mr Levin, great protector of freedom and the Constitution, the republicRATS have been working hand and hand with the demunists for years and you discover this now?

They are all working off the same playbook. One is allowed to be more extreme than the other. Both have the same goals.

Control

Power

Wealth

We actually had a Conservative Senator from Illinois before obama. When he was going to run for reelection, he was told by republicRAT leadership that he was to conservative, and he was on his own financially. He lost.

Rotten to the core. And so is his crew of minions- in- training, republicans in name only Mr. Boehner speaks in gibberish and garbled gibberish at that. What does he say? Who knows? Does Obama have "something" on Boehner? Is that why Boehner is so intimidated?

I still remember the Boehner--Biden fist bump as Barack was giving a speech a couple of years ago,after he was named speaker.That was all I needed to see from this so called Republican.

BOEHNER is a BONEHEAD OBAMA LACKY!!! He always has been! How often did he cave and raise the debt ceiling? He did nothing to help DEFUND OBAMACARE! He just keeps kissing O's royal A$%!!! He is pathetic! He shouldn't be speaker, he should be water-boy!!!

Exactly right Mark Levin! Boehner has been a huge disappointment as Speaker of the House. Wish / Hope that Michele Bachmann gets selected or Allen West for the Speaker position. They need to roadblock everything that comes from the Senate, and the White House, and they really need to expose the B.H.O. / Benghazi, Libya debacle.

There's nobody like the Great One to say it as it is.

Maybe Boehner is smarter than everyone thinks. Consider the following:

1)The economy is like a runaway train: It is going to crash and nobody can or could stop it. Not even Mitt. The Leftist/Liberal/Progressives, starting with Teddy Roosevelt, have set it on this course and by all that is Holy, they should be the ones at the throttle when it hits the cliff. Who better to take the blame?

2) Margret Thatcher: “Socialism is fine until you run out of other people’s money”. Tax the rich is preposterous. They just pick up their marbles and find a more equitable game. If the top 5% of earners (who pay over 60% of taxes) decide to close up shop and live off their off shore accounts in a country that is cheaper than the US for the next four years where will the money come from to support the government give-away programs? Remember, it’s an INCOME tax. No income. No tax.

3) The top three government expenditures are social welfare programs, the military and government salaries. Cut any of these and you will be voted out of office. Also, without the government give-aways, the 47% will do what the Greeks are doing: rioting. Which means this government will be fighting in the streets against those who elected them.

By voicing a bi-partisan effort, the Republicans cannot be blamed for obstructionism by the administration (as they did for the last four years) when their Marxist/Socialist policies fail. In other words, the fault for failure will fall entirely on Obama and the Democrats (where it belongs).

As conservatives, we understand the principle of ‘building our house on the rock and not the shifting sands’. So we will hunker down in our communities and work to elect good conservatives to local offices, support our churches and educate our children. And when the storm has passed we will be there to pick up the pieces and rebuild and get the train back on the right track.

I think Speaker Boehner has the leverage. I think the House GOP needs to put together a bill of everything they want and wait to until the last minute so the Democrats would have to pass it and Obama sign it without reading it. Inside the bill averting the fiscal cliff is the repeal of Obamacare and Dodd-Frank. Once Obama signed it I would say, "congratulations on repealing your own health care law and Dodd-Frank". Boehner and the House establishment don't have the stones to pull that off.

You know, the Repub party may not be winning the presidency at the moment, but at the state and local level they are doing just fine. Don't they control at least 32 of the governorships? They just got another one here in NC. They also control the House of Rep by a good sized majority. They didn't gain control of the senate this time, but they aren't that overwhelmed there either. At the local level, at least in NC, they have control of the state legislature starting in 2010 and gained a few more seats this time (first GOP control in 100 years) and we gained at least one congressman. So, why the big hoopla? The problems are arising when you get to Senate and Potus because urban dwellers and students vote DEM and they have been showing up and voting so able to out vote rural, but that could change. I don't think things are as bad as being portrayed.

I came across the following comment on an article on WND by a Mr 'Vox Day', "http://www.wnd.com/2012/11/obama-and-americas-end/#comment-708681811", much of whose content I agree with. In the context of Levin's statement here, I think its relevant. Wonder what anyone elese thinks.

The comment was as follows (I've edited it somewhat):

"My last post via disqus before the sham elections of 2012

was on an opinion piece by Mr Vox Day. It seems only suitable that my first

post after the selfsame sham elections should be on an opinion piece by Mr Day.

What was my post to weeks ago?

"Thanks for sticking to your guns till the very end

Vox.

For those partaking in the fraud of 2012, enjoy:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=9j7EWBuQ13E&feature=endscreen"

I would like now not only to thank Mr Day for sticking to his guns, but also

the three million 'Republicans' who did the same, failed to blink and dared the

sham that is the modern day Republican party to do its scummy worst.

Because of them and the many others, who realised the sham a lot earlier (say, for example, those that didn't turn out for McCain or Bush), while many are saying the

conservative movement in America is dead because Obama 'won' the elections, I

say conservatism is very much alive. Why do I say this? PPrecisely because of this:

These prospective voters who sat out the elections clearly show that more people than first thought have caught on to the lie they are being fed, from the likes of Rush

Liimbaugh and Glenn Beck (who do nothing save for being purely posers, mercilessly co-opting and profiteering the conservative cause) to the Karl Roves (the less said of him by me, the better for Mr moderator) of this world.

What is the crux of that lie? It is that we are not strong enough or have a winning

majority to resist the socialist/Marxist agenda being pushed on us by both

heads of the sham party system: Democrats and Republicans.

With all the bullying; fear-mongering; badgering of conservatives who refused

to fall for the lie that to vote Romney was the best option at hand for

standing up against Obama, these 3 million and more Americans refused to give

up on the truth. They would not buy the lie that Romney was the best their side

could offer America at this crucial hour. They (I imagine) were preparing, if

need be, for a time when they would have to seriously consider and rediscover

the real meaning of the statement:

"When

in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve

the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among

the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Law of

Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of

mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the

separation."

They, I imagine, understood that an election against a usurper and a subversive (Ba**ck Hussein O**ma) not only validates the usurper's perfidious claims to de jure authority in the past, but that, even if such an election did not do so, the man/woman to represent them against the alleged usurper could not be a person who for all intensive purposes had empowered, enabled and catalysed the atmosphere that saw the rise of such a usurper(ie Mitt Romney (and friends)).

And yet, instead of seeing this truth, all the post mortems of this fraud election just gone by fail to properly hone in on this point. The point? To wit, not only do we, God-fearing Americans have a winning majority in this nation but that majority can no longer, WILL no longer, be manipulated and coerced by those ostensibly on their side into rubber stamping a fatal course for the nation and her posterity.

Much has being made of voter fraud (as if the elitist in the Republican party do not dabble in it themselves or at least turn a blind eye to it when it happens to their favour); the 'changing demographics'; the 'youth vote'. Every phony post-mortem talking point has been hammered to death by these Mark Levin and Michael Savage types (who are at best glorified cowards not prepared to take the enough-is-enough

stand needed, and at worst, faux conservatives shrewdly monopolising the conservative entertainment market), everything but the fact that conservative Americans are finally saying no and jumping off the R ship, roaming about, waiting for the next best ship (ie a truly conservative party) to dock so they can jump aboard. I suppose it is because their conscience (these 'conservative' pundits and columnists) pains them too much for them to probe this area to deeply. With just half of that three million who stayed at home, it must pain them to know that their beloved Romney would have beaten Ob*ma. They feel like a Henry V who musters all his oratorical energy to rally the troops only to find that the emptiness of their oration is revealed by the five men out of the tens of thousands that respond. And so they pretend not to see the thousands that deserted them.

Mr Day, I hear you concerning the matter of the flooding in of these dissolute immigrants. But that is nothing compared to the real lesson of these elections: the fact that constitutionalists are now more comfortable with voting

at their local gun stores rather than at the ballot box, stuffed, metaphorically, with serpents and poisonous arachnids, preparing themselves for a day they hope never comes but would rather it come than that they be slaves once again to despots.

It now remains for those that did go to the ballot boxes on November 6 (to no avail) to rubber stamp the Republican head of the sham to learn this lesson also; stop backing lies and wake up!

If not... "In the blue corner is Hillary Rodham Clinton, and in the red corner is Jeb Bush; Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, its 2016; lets get ready to CRRRRUMBLEEEEEE!!!" "

Unfortunately, Mark, Sean, and Rush have to take matters into their own hands. They should all three lead a full-throttle effort to replace Boehner with Paul Ryan.

Guest1776rcp

Paul Ryan? Seriously? Have you ever looked at his voting record when it really matters. Sure he is good with gimics like the Ryan budget plan but the GOP knew it would never get to the Presidents desk. Examine Ryan's record when the vote actually matters and more often than not Paul Ryan is an establishment yes man big spender. My goodness WTFU and DO NOT allow the MSM, Dems and RINOs convince you Paul Ryan is a TPer. He is not TP and is establishment Yes man.

You mean like they went full throttle against a Romney nomination as our candidate.

They think sitting in their ivory towers speaking to the choir and writing books is all that's needed to save America when what we need are real patriots.The kind who are willing to pledge their lives, fortunes and sacred honor.

If they truly believed that our country would never recover from another four years of Obama and would change forever, there efforts in their positions were, to be kind, self-serving.
