No Replacement, No Vote February 11, 2014J. Robert Smith

The GOP Mulls Seppuku January 31, 2014William Sullivan
Conservative American principles might just be at risk of becoming culturally irrelevant or extinct with the GOP.

GOP Establishment's war on its base December 26, 2013Thomas Lifson
A political party blessed with a large, enthusiastic, and active base is planning a war against that very base. They don't call it "The Stupid Party" for nothing.
Boehner's Self-Defeating Outburst December 17, 2013J. Robert Smith
Politically the Speaker is all left feet. Or he's let his frustration spillover, leading him to foolhardiness. Perhaps both. Revealingly, the Speaker's words won the praise of conservative nemesis Harry Reid.
Big Government Zombie Survives Shutdown October 7, 2013Geoffrey P. Hunt
Big government is on autopilot with no means for anyone to pull a kill-switch. Isn't that the zombie-esque nightmare scenario for limited government believers?

Tragedy and Comedy at the SOTU February 13, 2013Sally Zelikovsky
I couldn't help but think of the "tragedy and comedy" Janus masks as I watched Joe Biden and John Boehner dutifully sit behind President Obama as he delivered his painfully long State of the Union speech.
Barack does not Play Well with Others February 4, 2013William L. Gensert
Let the president do what he does best, give campaign speeches and pretend to be a leader. There is no reason to include him in negotiations between the Senate and the House.
Fights Worth Having February 2, 2013J. Robert Smith
Republicans need to better communicate. This isn't climbing Everest, either. It takes determination and some smarts.
Fiscal Cliff: Yeah, It's Coming December 29, 2012Warren Beatty
So now the House of Representatives has adjourned for its Christmas recess until after the New Year. I guess that Boehner (and Obama) thought the Christmas adjournment was more important than the country.
GOP Strategy and the Fiscal Cliff December 24, 2012Michael Bargo, Jr.
The GOP should give up on trying to negotiate with the President. He shows no interest in doing anything but portraying them as the party of the rich. The GOP should instead turn their attention on post-cliff strategy.

Boehner's Boners December 12, 2012J.T. Hatter

Boehner Orchestrating the GOP's Demise December 7, 2012J. Robert Smith
It's a contest of wills and guess who is winning? President Obama, of course. And that's because the president is up against the GOP's equivalent of Churchill's "Boneless Wonder," Speaker John Boehner.
