Congressman John Boehner wrote a column at Townhall chastising the Democrats for the troop funding bill because they included a timetable for troop withdrawal which is well and good. What offended me was that he criticized them for the pork in it. This is after he, according to the Wall Street Journal on January 12th of this year, canned Congressman Jeff Flake of Arizona from the Judiciary committee for the high crime of porkbusting. Congressman Flake apparently was airing Republican dirty laundry in regards to spending on "60 Minutes" which ran the program on the election eve. Is Congressman Boehner so unaware of his surroundings that he thought that the country wasn't already aware of runaway spending by our Republican controlled congress? We have been complaining about for years! If Boehner want to blame someone for our losses on election night he might start looking in the mirror.
