THE QUOTE OF THE DAY

Ken Berwitz


Today\’s quote comes to us from Fox News Channel host Bill Hemmer.  Here is what he said to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, after the House voted solidly against against the nuclear “deal” and against lifting sanctions on Iran, but the vast majority of Democrats voted for the deal and to lift sanctions:

“People on the outside see this and think thatthat\’s just Washington doing what Washington wants to do. And, damn the laws.And, you know what\’s going on in the campaign trail, Democrat or Republican.That\’s why Bernie Sanders is getting 15,000 people at a rally. That\’s whyDonald Trump is at 32% of the polling right now. People do not like what iscoming out of Washington and they think the smell stinks.”

I award Bill Hemmer Quote Of The Day honors for stating exactly why Sanders and Trump are where they are in the polls.

If I had my way, Mitch McConnell would summarily be removed as Senate Majority Leader.  And John Boehner would be summarily removed as House Majority Leader as well. 

Why?  Because, whatever these two were when they started out in politics, they both are now hack politicians, whose behavior is 100% D.C.-backroom-deal quality, and who, I suspect, wouldn\’t recognize principles or courage of convictions if their lives depended on it.

The day that McConnell and Boehner are replaced with people who have at least some of both, will be a happy day for the Republican Party and a very happy day for the country.
