Guess I'm missing some drama tonight, huh? Unfortunately, I've somehow find myself watching this new Joran Van Der Sloot interview with Greta, and that's about all I can take for tonight.
Yes, the "she gives interview while a turkey is killed behind her" story was real. She didn't know what was happening behind her, according to her people. Personally, I think the guy set her up. You could see him at the edge of the screen smirking and laughing, IMO. I mean, I know
why it's being made into a big deal, but my naive mind still can't comprehend why when people are confronted with the facts of the situation, they still carry on. Silly me and my silly facts.
As for Michelle Obama, I personally don't give a hoot what she wears, how she looks, etc. The only thing I concern myself with for any public person is what they say and do. I don't like a lot of the things she says or a lot of what she stands for. That's the only relevant stuff to me.
Anyhow, has anyone else seen this article about the recent Republican House leadership vote? Did I say we needed to chuck Boehner or not?

Here's an excerpt and link to the full article:
Boehner Says House GOP Not Shifting to the Right; Other Leaders Disagree
"House Republicans are not shifting to the political right, House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) told CNSNews.com on Wednesday, just hours after two of the top three GOP leadership spots were won by conservative lawmakers in an internal leadership election.
Members Reps. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.), Mike Pence (R-Ind.), and John Mica (R-Fla.), however, told CNSNews.com that they think the conference is shifting to the political right.
But Boehner said, “No, I don’t think it’s right or left. It’s what are the issues Americans are concerned about, and how do we build solutions on our principles? It’s not left or right.
“That’s minimizing and marginalizing the situation,” Boehner told CNSNews.com when asked if he saw a trend towards conservatism in his conference. “I think our members are trying to avoid that.”
Boehner spoke to CNSNews.com after a press conference announcing his reelection to the top House Republican post.
But Pence, who was unanimously voted in as the Republican Conference Chairman on Wednesday, told CNSNews.com that conservatism is the current trend among House Republicans."
...
But Both Mica and Flake noted that though the conservative voice has grown in strength in the aftermath of the Nov. 4 elections, conservatives likely would not have been able to replace Boehner as House Minority leader with one of their own.
“We [conservatives] could certainly have mounted a more formidable challenge” towards Boehner, Flake told CNSNews.com. “But I don’t know that it would have been enough. We thought we mounted a pretty good challenge last time, and we got socked.”
“I don’t think conservatives would have had the votes,” said Mica."
