Only the Strong Survive

On the July 5 edition of Fox News Sunday, Democrat Stenny Hoyer and House Minority Leader John Boehner appeared to discuss the stimulus and healthzilla. While Boehner did get a few decent shots in (pointing out that Obamapromised unemployment would not rise above 8% and it has in fact risen to 9.5%) he practiced the same tired “new tone” of Republican blather, refusing to go after Hoyer and all the false presuppositions that the Democrats have built their talking points on. Boehner is a huge part of the problem for the Republicans; never has a political route been followed by the election of the same leadership that caused said route, yet here we have mild mannered Clark Kent with no superhero alter-ego being put right back where he botched the job so egregiously.
