I had to chuckle to myself when I read the Jan. 5 editorial, “Boehner finds his footing,” about House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, standing up to the Tea Party and how strong he is to do this for the Republicans. This is not a place to go for advice to run the Republican Party, namely a left-leaning newspaper. That will make sure that we elect more people like Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., and President Barack Obama to office and this country cannot afford any more of that.
As a Tea Party member, we need more people like Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, who are not afraid to stand up to the Democrat and Republican machines that currently invaded Washington, D.C. We need to dump the so-called “leadership” that Boehner provides.
I fear that the Washington, D.C., insiders are more concerned with lining their own pockets than doing what is right for the country. I fear we are heading down a path we can’t recover from and current voters can’t tell the difference between a Democrat and Republican.
It is time to listen to the “Mark Levin Show” and other so-called “right-wing” talk shows and dump the establishment “little r” Republicans and make some real change in this country, and not the change that our leaderless president is trying to implement either.
