House Speaker John Boehner joins CBS' "Face the Nation" to discuss his recent resignation from Congress, Pope Francis' visit, and the divides in the Republican party.
This interview, documenting an unprecedented event in modern history, was amazing. We are seeing a man unburdened, speaking honestly. Every person, Republicans and Democrats alike, should pay close attention.
You are referring to two completely different things. I absolutely agree with you on the deficit. What I was referring to when I said, unprecedented, is the Speaker of the House stepping down at this point in his term and how the change will affect the legislative process. Pay close attention.
+Spacecoastz - Well, the next one is far more rabidly conservative than Boehner. Let's see what his success will be - and by "success" I mean growing jobs and not shutting the government down like a Sissyphean idiot.
+Spacecoastz can you explain how we'll have trouble paying off this debt? Those are big numbers but we have a very large economy and that debt doesn't need to be paid off for many years. I think if you crunch the numbers you'll find it's not a lot to handle, especially in our low interest environment.
If I saw John Boehner on the street I would go out of my way to shake his hand and say "Thank you. Thank you for being a real human being, not some slime bag creep like other members of your Republican Party." I admire him for his decency and honesty.
He also called Cruz “Lucifer” in an interview 😂😂😂 and Trump called Cruz the secret son of the Zodiak Killer. Love of him or hate him- you gotta admit, a LOT of people hate Cruz
cant say i agree with everything John Boehner has ever done. but I do appreciate him recognizing that it's time to go. Let this be someone else's problem. Can't blame him for moving on to greener pastures and a happier life. Hopefully the next guy will be firmer with these extremist. at the end of the day, it's up to us to vote these people out of there. so get to the polls everybody, let's get these crazies out.
I am really sorry to see the Speaker Boehner to leave his job. His leaving is the greatest sacrifices for our country and he has done the best and most he can already. I also felt sorry for the former majority leader Eric Cantor lost on his electons. Because I believe that it is just not easy to form and accumulate the good and real governing leadership experiences. It takes time and effort and practice. This is why we shouldn't behave by our own emotions and anger, but by the facts of the leadership experiences, America's patriotism and loyalty and principles as well as the overall result. We also should learn how to appreciate each other's services by our own generous mind of appropriate forgiveness. The Speaker Boehner's position is never easy. He spent much of the time to help Republican party for the fund raising for the election. Often things must work together for the better results and not easy to turn around just by his own wills. This is why I believe we shouldn't squeeze out the more experienced ones and replaced by one's with no governing leadership experiences at all or less governing leadership experienced ones. Because no one can be 100% perfect and no one is intentionally bad to really screw up our own country. Everything is the matter of the governing leadership experiences. Because the great governing leadership experiences like President Reagan, President Bush 41, President Nixon, President Bush 43 and...etc, they were all worked with the Democratic Party leadership together to get things done by their own America's patriotism and loyalty and principles of America's foundation of the Capitalism system of the freedoms and entrepreneurship and constitutions, by their own convincing skills and negotiations capabilities, by the understanding of the importance of surely achievement of the negotiations by giving up something in order to get something one party want. Because no one can have everything he wants. This is why the principals are the everything. This is also why I believe Gov.Bush will be a more than qualified President for our country's goodness, safety, security issues, prosperity and America's own foundation of the Capitalism system of the liberty and entrepreneurship and constitutions by his own America's patriotism and loyalty and principles to America's own foundation and constitutions and prosperity, by his own proven successful governing leadership experiences which created massive jobs for Floridians to enjoy and left over 9 billions dollars of the surplus for his successor's raining days, by his own responsibility and humbleness nature, by his own strong recognitions of America's own foundation of the Capitalism system of the liberty and entrepreneurship and constitutions...etc. Gov.Bush will be a great President for America's prosperity and foundations and future.
If you didn't follow politics before Trump, this is an example of how things were. Civility meant something. Maybe they both were acting. But I doubt it.
If there hope for the Republicans, it looks like this guy. Can't believe Boehner managed to earn my respect, but damn if he didn't. If the republicans don't get the extremists out of their party, they will never win again... but for now: GO BERNIE 2016
I would rather see our leaders cry than push the red nuke button. I just hope this Planned Parenthood isn't the ninth beast. The irony of pro-choice creating no choice.

i'm guessing he drinks wayyyy too much hence the crying and over emotionality. not hating on him just odd. i suspect he's going to be able to hit the bottle hard now
I mean they’re all drinkers. Lindsey Graham is always sloshed, then Kudlow, Jeanine Pirro, and Stephen Miller was absolutely high off his rocks on his Tapper interview, they cut it short
