How do you feel about Speaker Boehner's resignation from Congress?

MAJ Byron Oyler - Politics and governance demand compromise.

LTC Bink Romanick - I totally agree w/ that but the only problem are the checks and balances and suppression of the details about their motivation for doing this. The truth is out there, now to find it.

LTC Bink Romanick - I have no interest in vindicating Hillary since she was in on Watergate and is a hypocrite. That is my biggest rub.

LTC Bink Romanick - Yes Sir and I think we are going to find out he did compromise and those on the extreme right had heartburn over it.

MAJ Byron Oyler - There is no replacement yet. I think his resignation was somewhat abrupt.

The House is going to have to schedule an election for his replacement after he steps down.

That's going to be interesting to watch - there's no clear front runner right now. McCarthy might look like the obvious choice, but he's got the same baggage at Boehner. There's no one currently on the conservative side that can pull enough votes to be elected.

You can always get worse!

LTC Bink Romanick - I worry we will get worse as I believe he was willing to compromise with the Democrats and thus why the right pushed him out. I am not a fan of the left but a less fan of nothing getting done.

Right wing extremists are almost as bad as left wing extremists.

Not so much his own party but the various factions within the party with their own agendas, the tea party, libertarians, evangelicals, etc.

MAJ Byron Oyler - Key word: ALMOST

Tea Party, Libertarians, Evangelicals all pretty much have the same conservative agenda. Your point?
