An open letter to John Boehner: The Benedict Arnold of our times.

Dear Mr Boehner,

You stated last night that the President created this crisis [quote] - "the 'crisis' atmosphere he has created will simply disappear."[unquote] Do you really think for one moment that people are so stupid that you can insult our intelligence with that kind of bold faced lie.

 

You made up numerous other lies, to mislead the American people—but the point is:

 

WE KNOW WHO HAS ORCHESTRATED THIS CRISIS. YOU AND THE TEA PARTY. BUT THE PARTY IS OVER. WHATEVER YOU WERE HOPING TO GAIN IS ALREADY LOST. YOU'VE OVERPLAYED YOUR HAND. AND EVERYBODY KNOWS IT. YOUR BETTING THE FARM AND YOU DON"T OWN THE FARM. YOU ARE JUST A HIRED HAND THAT WORKS FOR THE PEOPLE.

 

In the end you will be held accountable for this grievous wound that you and your party have inflicted on this nation's honor. You have jeopardized it's financial stability with this outrageous scheme and in the process it's National Security. This Nation was founded on COMPROMISE. Something you never knew or have forgotten.

 

How dare you hold this Nation hostage in a game of political one-upmanship. You are playing a very dangerous game, on behalf of your corporate masters—and frankly you're not smart enough—you are fooling no one by your mendacity.

 

Great harm has already been done and if it continues and this ends badly for this Nation —you had better find a very deep hole like Saddam Hussein did, because there is no where you can go, no where you can hide, that people will not curse you and revile your name. You will go down as a modern day Benedict Arnold. You and your tea bagging colleagues. You are on the wrong side of this fight and you know it. In your heart of catholic hearts you know this is wrong. No one is going to thank you for this debacle. You've pushed this nation to the brink and NO ONE LOVES YOU FOR IT.

 

In my opinion—the harm you and your party is doing and have already done, is more than al qaeda ever could dreamed of doing to damage this country's stability. 

In opposition to all that you stand for

Michael Weber
