Boehner: GOP Policies Are Politically Harder, Dems Offer Free Lunch

By Eric Kleefeld - February 25, 2009, 4:30PM

The Wall St. Journal reports that John Boehner made an interesting observation about the Republican Party's problems: It's simply harder to sell their own ideas to the public, compared to the easy answers offered by the Democrats.

"We have a tougher job than our friends across the aisle. They've been offering Americans a free lunch for the last 80 years, rather successfully," Boehner said, at a lunch hosted by the Christian Science Monitor. "Those of us that believe in a smaller, more accountable government, we have a tougher time making our principles relevant to the American people. But it's our challenge, and we've got to do it."

A note about free lunches and small government: Boehner voted in 2003 for the Medicare drug bill, a mega-expensive expansion of entitlement spending with no method laid out on how to pay for it. And the modern GOP's platform is based largely on tax cuts, with the constant claim that they'll result in even more revenue.

1. You have a tough time making your principles relevant, John, because you are full of shit.

"Smaller, more accountable government?" Where were you, John, from 1-20-01 through 1-20-09? John is the whiniest "leader" I've seen in a long, long time.

13. I don't know how they fix their face to say some of the shit that comes

out of their mouths. It's like you say, they are acting like the last 8 years never happened. Unbelievable.

2. It is still a shit pie, and shit pies are always DANG hard to sell

you really cannot fool people too long with shit pies. They catch on after a bit, and run to the other side of the street when they even SEE you coming. "Hey, that guy ia trying to sell shit pies, let's get the hell outta here before he sees us."

Sorta like that.

3. Sorry, Boehner... we don't need no stinkin' undercoating!

[Left Is Write]

4. The Republicans always say they are for smaller, less intrusive government...

until it comes time to decide what a woman should do with her own uterus.

[Infomaniac]

5. The GOP's Version of the Free Lunch is a Shit Sandwich...

and a glass of toxic waste. They can't sell it. Tell Boehner to reduce government spending by cutting some Republic staff instead of insisting on more money for staff despite there being fewer republics in Congress. Practice what you preach, asshat.

6. He's so full of fucking shit!

No John, we have spent the last thirty years watching you and your misguided, inept, greedy, intolerant, misogynist, and fundie friends successfully sell YOUR shit sandwich again and again.

Last November, we rose up and spit out that shit sandwich.

And if that upsets you and your misguided, inept, greedy, intolerant, misogynist, and fundie friends......... great!

10. Poor Boehner.

12. On free lunches

On the other hand, Republicans take your lunch money and give it to billionaires.

14. He's a lying piece of shit. Free lunch? Where the hell is it? n/t

[Drunken Irishman]

15. Anyone else have to laugh at his comment about free lunch coming at a free lunch?

I doubt he had to pay to eat.
