Call on Boehner to Resign.

[MineralMan]

It's time, and beyond time.

1. If Boner resigns

does Cantor become Speaker of the House?

:puke:

[atreides1]

4. More then likely

I think Cantor is behind this.

[no_hypocrisy]

13. + 1

Very Shakespeare in the power grab.

[Doctor_J]

5. Yes, and thaat would be great for us

He's a crackpot who invested in instruments that would benefit from the economy crashing. I can think of no better poster boy for the loony right.

[MineralMan]

11. I think there would be a knock-down, drag-out war in the House

to replace him, frankly. Cantor probably isn't the prime choice. I want more confusion and disarray inside the GOP. The more the better.

[Poll_Blind]

2. I agree but at this late in the game is that more or less likely to result in default?

?

7. It is not looking good as it is. See this from Raw Story:

GOP fault lines deepen as Boehner says tea party seeks ‘chaos’ in debt deal

8. I doubt it would make any difference.

Seriously.

[tkmorris]

3. Much as I'd like to see him gone...

Who would be his replacement? And do you think it would be beneficial to we Democrats, or not?

[MineralMan]

6. Let the Republicans duke it out in an attempt to decide.

I don't give a crap, really. One's as bad as the other, for the most part. I'd just like throw the GOP into further disarray.

[DearAbby]

9. Cantor moves in.....n/t

[dgibby]

10. So you're with the Tea Party on this?

That's what they want, too. Personally, I think that would be a disaster. If you think things are bad now, what do you think it would be like if Cantor was the speaker?

[MineralMan]

12. No. I'm with anyone wanting the GOP to splinter even further.

I want total disintegration of the party. What the teabaggers want is irrelevant to me.

[dgibby]

20. Your answer makes no sense.

I asked you if you are with the Tea Party on this. You say, "no", then go on to say you're "with anyone wanting the GOP to splinter even further", which is exactly what the Tea Party is trying to achieve-a coup in the House which will definitely splinter the GOP, then overthrow of the govt. Make up your mind. Either you agree with them or you don't.

[still_one]

15. I agree, however, if that happens there would be no doubt in my mind that Obama would have to

exercise the 14th amendment

[dgibby]

16. Something I seriously doubt he'd do. n/t

[Raschel]

17. I agree with you. Plus I don't think it's wise to bring in a new player at this point in the game.

[Guilded Lilly]

14. Hell no, keep him where he is...he's horrible and that is better

for the Democrats. Chaos in the Republican ranks is good.

[Kahuna]

18. Uhhh Sorry MM. No can do. The thought of cantor as speaker

is a very scary thought. :scared:

[MineralMan]

19. OTOH, he's even crazier than Boehner.

It might be OK.

[dgibby]

21. As much as I'd like to see the republicans absolutley devour

each other, I don't want them to take the country down with them, and that's what's happening now. It's why we can't get an agreement over the raising the debt ceiling. The repubs who understand the repercussions of allowing us to default have lost all control of the Tea Party, who don't care-who in fact, welcome the chaos and see it as an opportunity to overthrow the govt.

[jberryhill]

22. If we put a tax on his tears, we'd have a trillion dollar surplus in no time /nt

[TNLib]

23. I really don't want a crazier wing nut as speaker of the house

I don't like the fact that he's ineffectual as the GOP leader but he's ineffectual because the GOP Congress is loaded with Bat shit crazy lunatics even more so than in past congresses. Like it or not he's the finger in the damn of absolute insanity.

[jberryhill]

24. Sticking a Boehner in the dyke may not be the best strategy, though /nt

[TNLib]

25. LOL
