There was a big sigh of relief in our nation's capitol today as John Boehner will stay where he is at and continue to do what he does. That sigh of relief came from Barack Obama and his comrades in arms and from the Jebusites. To the Republican House members who voted for Mr. Boehner, there may never have been a House vote on leadership in the history of these United States, as clear and easy to discern as this one today, and you utterly failed. Why did you go to Washington? How will you assuage your guilt when you see the picture in tomorrow's newspaper of John Boehner kissing Nancy Pelosi and realize that it wasn't a nightmare? Will you craft some patriotic verbiage for your Capitol Hill web site.....stand on the Capitol steps for a photo op in a show of defiance against Barack Obama.......or possibly summon all of your pluck to wait for the camera to be pointed at you in the upcoming Speech from the Throne and......frown.....vociferously?
Can we trade places? You can keep the salary and pension, the parking space, the secretary and the spa pass! I'll let others serve on the Joint Committee for Usufruct, Saxicolous and Abligurition while I defend our Constitution and our heritage.
Do you remember these words from the past... "Is life so dear, or death so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God!-I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"?
Or can you recall these God-breathed words as we legislate against Almighty God..."And if it is evil in your eyes to serve the LORD, choose this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your fathers served in the region beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD."
Some of you who let America down today may have simply got caught up in the intoxicating aura of Washington D. C.; you indeed have a passion for freedom and liberty and would give that last full measure in defense of our nation! You will have other opportunities to defend our Constitution and uphold our laws, for they are continuously under attack. That is if Jesus Christ continues to tarry and we do not suddenly reap the trouble and calamity that we have sown for so long!
