Speaker Boehner is right, there are three:
- Use constitutional powers to protect the Constitution and abide by the oath of office
- Falsely claim that Republican hands are tied and that there are no effective options
- Recycle oath’s about stopping Democrats “next time” but only if you just reelect us again — while surreptitiously giving Democrats what they and crony capitalists want
We can predict for Speaker Boehner that picking from the wrong ones will induce many conservatives to explore their options.
Sinking ship? Charles Hurt writing in the Washington times:
GOP sinking on a ship of timidity, squandering historic win
The article is pointed and correct. Excerpts:
“Limited options?” “Limited abilities?” We have an unbridled madman in the White House right now taking a machete to the U.S. Constitution and the leader of the opposition party that was just thrust to power in a historic rejection of the president and his cleptocratic policies is now talking about “limited” options and abilities? . . .
I mean, seriously? What kind of traumatized headcase thinking is this? Republicans are afraid that if the president issues his first veto over a significant bill that funds the entire government except for his lawless amnesty, somehow it will be Republicans’ fault that the federal government shuts down? . . .
Remember the last government shutdown when Republicans got totally blamed. They got blamed so bad even they no longer tried claiming it wasn’t their fault. They were running around like a bunch of screaming weenies just heaping blame upon themselves and apologizing for the reckless, dastardly and unnecessary shutdown of the federal government.
And my goodness, look at the drubbing they suffered in the very next election! Oh wait! That was just last month! When they seized control of the Senate, reached historic levels in the House and annihilated Democrats coast-to-coast! . . .
If not now, when? If not right after winning a landslide election, when?

Mark Levin pulls no punches
Criticism of predictable Republican fecklessness if not pretense on the matter of Obamacare after recent House hearings:
Excerpts:
Levin said he refuses to “make heroes out of these members of Congress who asked great questions, who made great arguments — and then they are actually going to vote to fund this crap!”
“They hold a hearing to show further how outrageous this law is, how abusive its architect was. And they can’t even persuade themselves to step up to the plate and do something about it,” he added
