I think John Boehner should just give up and resign. He can’t lead his pack of fools. The White House has no reason to take him seriously. He can’t deliver a deal. You would think that a bunch of Wall Street head honchos and defense contractors and doctors could convince rank-and-file Republicans to stand up to Grover Norquist, but they evidently are not having any success.
And then there is Mitch McConnell. He couldn’t convince his caucus to ratify a treaty on the rights of the disabled. (Roll call here). Bob Dole showed up to try to convince his former colleagues to act in a sane manner, but he was ignored. McConnell should resign in disgrace.
