  • Boehner dodged all those questions by talking about random bullshit,

  • The wealthy Americans have a big dildo up the ass of the working class. Rich people lie all the time. Why is that so hard to believe? They know most Americans aren't critical thinkers and that we get stupider every day.

  • Boehner should have started crying

  • Boehner gets more idiotic everytime he speaks . He won't answer because he can't admit that he and his republican minions are wrong!! I wish every American could see this moron in action.

  • Who is this Orange asshole. Boner + contempt = GOP

  • Fuck this guy, and fuck the people who voted this clown in office, this is facts Bush tax cuts from 2001 -2008 cost this country 2 trillion dollars and it didn't pay shit back.

    These fucken republican are going to run this country into the ground.

  • With more taxes, I have no choice in where my money goes. Let me choose what I want to put my money into.

  • Why give money to people who have worked their whole life who have arthritis now and can barely walk? XD Those disabled people in wheelchairs should get it either. Those legless bastards! XD

  • Could it be more obvious that CRY BABY BONER goes to a fricken tanning salon????

  • @dcaff330 So do I. What's the point? If you don't like guy, fine. But don't judge someone by physical appearance.

  • Hehehe. Boehner.

  • He doesn't answer the question, you're right...please, millionaires can AFFORD to pay THEIR FAIR SHARE!! Please!! This as-s wipe makes me physically ILL!

  • what kind of idiot elects an idiot like this

  • boehner is a fuck'n idiot...he never answered the question...this is the House Leader???...he should listen to economists who have overwhelmingly said the Bush Tax Cuts have been a horrible decision and have never paid for themselves...there was a net loss in jobs during W Bush's 8 years...Americans wake up!

  • Boehner has no idea what he is talking about

  • JOHN BOEHNER, is a weepy..weak kneed drunk from SOUTHWEST OHIO, better known as HICKSVILLE.. this guy has never seen a happy hour..a golf course or a lobbyist he didn't like..here in NORTHEAST OHIO, he's known as BOURBON BOEHNER..

  • Boner is such a Douche Bag !!!!!

  • It would be hysterical to watch this idiot barely tread water if it weren't so tragic...answer the simple question MORON!!

  • Cancel the tax cuts. Take all that money and spend it on hiring people to rebuild the crappy infrastructure. That will put people to work, lower unemployment insurance, and help businesses for giving them the better infrastructure and a customer base who can purchase more products. It will then improve the economy and recover much, if not all the spending through income, sales, and business taxes.

  • Fuck this Drunkard pile of shit!

  • my god. Boehner wont answer a simple question. Are the tax cuts not paid for? a simple yes or no will suffice.

    The Bush tax cuts are the stupidest and most selfish tax cuts of the past decade. We should be living in a country where everyone pays an equal amount in taxes.

  • Let the government keep borrowing so we can give the rich their continued Bush tax cuts.

  • This guy is an idiot. How come America votes the idiots in? Oh ya, CUZ VOTERS DON'T KNOW SHIT! people should have to take a test before they are eligible to vote.

  • John Bonehead what a drunken idiot

  • How did this evil nut job mad man from Ohio get to such a high powerful position very dangerous and destructive to America in Washington DC?

  • You know Boehner is really nuts when even Bill O'Reilly from FOX calls for his resignation. He is committing Republican suicide and sending US to complete catasprophic economical hell along with it's credibility with Europe and the rest of the World.. I dont know who are bigger idiot nut jobs---The Japanese Komakasee Suicide Pilots in WW2 or John Boehner?

  • tax the rich and end the debt. Why are republicans so retarded?

  • @Bestmoviealive I don't agree with Boehner or the republicans, but I also don't agree with your strategy.

  • Thank you Mr. Greenspan. Boehner needs to sober up. Too much time in the tanning booth. He can't answer any questions....freakazoid.

  • John Boehner is idiot, I want to bust him up!!! they are only acting like this because, blacks, latinos, and asian people are starting to do what they (white/wealthy) have always done now they trying to change shit. I'm a tell you these people act like they want to fight, but they can't fight they are going to loose!!!

  • Comment removed

  • So when will Boehner start actually responding to the question directly?. Never, because he know that his ideas have been disproven by 8 years of bush, and 12 years of Republican administration under Reagan as well as Bush senior.

  • Wow. "And so you favor raising the retirement age? Simple, simple question, Tan Man. And you can't look the camera in the eye in answer it? Really? It's a yes or no question, dude. Yes or no. Simple. And you can't answer it.

    Or you just won't because you know that you don't want to honestly answer it.

  • Weeper of the House John Boehner:

    Notice John Boehner fails to directly answer 99% of questions asked of him. How in the World did he ever get elected to the House?

    The day the 211 Congress convened and Nancy Pelosi handed Boehner the twice the size standard gavel, but pointed out (Boehner selected this to be his gavel and gave it to me before the symbolic handing over of the gavel) The phallic size gavel left me laughing so hard, maybe Boehner blew his way into office.

  • members of congress, both Senators and the House of Representatives, don't pay into Social Security but do have a special retirement plan that continues their active salary until death.

    The email encourages pulling "...the Golden Fleece retirement out from under the Senators and Congressmen, and put them in Social Security with the rest of us."

  • THUMBS UP!

  • this guy (Boehner ) is one of the biggest clown in history. as european i find it unbelievable that how the hell can ANYBODY vote ppl like him... and even worse how the hell can he be speaker of GOP

  • You people that voted Boehner in shall be chastised for it! What a fucking idiot!

  • Boehner is the quintessential example of a sleezy politician never giving a straight answer to a straight question.

  • TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH ARE NOT PAID FOR.. THEY ARE CHARGED TO THE NATIONAL DEBT.. BOEHNER CANT ANSWER A STRAIGHT QUESTION.. I AM NOT WORKING TO 70 its my money and i need it now...

  • Yeah tax cuts, that is exactly what the majority of americans need. The trickle down effect is bullshit. If the rich paid taxes it would cover most of the taxes collected from everyone else. Taxes have to raise with the population, this is an obvious and direct relationship. If you don't pay taxes everyone suffers.

    Lets say you do give everyone tax cuts, what will we do to raise money? What can be cut? MILITARY SPENDING. Subsidies for corporations. You have to cut something!

  • Boehner do you really believe the crap you are saying or are you just a lying corporate puppet with a good tan.

  • obtuse and not to the point = John Boehner

  • same old ... same old...

    more for the super-rich

    less for the poor & middle class...

    his message hasn't changed

  • "I don't wanna get the cart before the horse"

    Translated:

    "I don't wanna take an unpopular position until after I'm elected and don't have to care anymore."

  • Can someone please tell me what planet Boehner is from, because when I listen to him talk, it does not sound like he is talking about any reality here on earth. We have a 2.5 trillion dollar surplus on the books for Social Security. Giving tax cuts to billionairs does not create jobs in America. So if Boehner and his buddies would stop giving money away to crooks and start acting like an American, everything will be OK, then we can suport SS when the time comes as needed, Wake up Americans

  • @dalecampbl6 THUMBS UP!

  • I wonder if thats a spray tan, bed tan, or a good ol' beach tan... Are the beaches in Ohio?

  • What a tool. If he had a clue he would misplace it. He now is after A 20% social security cut just after getting another tax break for his rich owners. It really does baffle me how this guy and his party has been able to con the american voters.

  • He spoke for almost 5 minutes there and didn't say one fuc*ing word. Useless useless useless. It's all "Obama bad, Republicans Good". Way to grind the country to a halt.

  • Listening to this guy is WORSE than listening to Sarah Palin try to answer a question. This guy is SO OLD SCHOOL politics and Washington yet he berates "Washington speak". He's useless.

  • LMAO... That MFer is so slick... so far I have not heard any answer from him... Aren't we already SLAVES to the GREED ENTERPRISE...??? Now, that MFer wants to raise the retirement age...??? Many ways to solve the problem...??? WTF were you doing for those 8 yrs...??? Sucking the RICH MFer's DICK...???

  • why the fuck can't he answer the goddamn question?

  • @rjholling because he doesnt have one.

  • tHIS MAN IS A PIG STICK AN APPLE IN HIS MOUTH.

  • When someone like Boehner makes the claims he does a proper journalist would DEMAND that he shows the figures supporting this; research, real facts from past tax years, and the arithmetic that verifies his assumptions. To do otherwise is just inviting him on your show to enable him to lie.

    Shame on you Dick Gregory.

  • I think that Boehner ought to listen to Alan Greenspan. Greenspan, afterall, was Chairman of the Federal Reserve for almost 20 years! If Boehner fervently believes that tax cuts pay for themselves, wouldn't it be prudent for him to challenge Greenspan's statement instead of going silent? Isn't that what a thoughtful leader would do?

  • the elitist rich however, can go ahead and invest in China just so they get enough goods in return to maintain a good life in USA while the rest of us dies off...that's the way of the GOP...allow the top 1% to hoard all money, get rid of all sense of urgency or incentive to create jobs for Americans, allow the top 1% to freely "trade" with slave-rate countries so they can create the rich can use...NOW HAVE I OPENED UP YOUR EYES? Look at the facts of today, look at the facts and tell me they fit

  • here is what every american needs to understand to shut up the GOP once and for all...YES: WEALTH is what generates jobs...BUT WEALTHY PEOPLE in America today HAVE NO INCENTIVE to generate jobs so more TAX CUTS to these filthy rich will not create an incentive for them to create MORE JOBS...and u know why??? Because they have no fear of getting taxed...once estate tax/ invetment taxes and all other taxes are abolished...the rich can keep their money without any reason to "reinvest" in USA

  • @ihategopwithpassion Youre a 100% correct. They get tax incentives to ship jobs overseas. Middle class GOP supporters are the most misguided people I have ever seen. They support a party that is working towards their financial detriment and supports the rich who lines their pockets. These folks need to stop drinking the FOX News kool-aid and do their research. Conservatives are more easily swayed than liberals. repubs have already shown what they stand for but folks keep voting for them.

  • i don't know if it's more 'misguided' or willful ignorance...when a democracy fails it's the people who fail, not necessarily the politicians, because we voted them in in the first place, we are too blame....the fact that GW Bush isn't burned in effigy every single day means we the people have become fat complacent sheeps....sheeps for slaughter and to be taken advantage of

  • Furthermore, all you flamers who only want to insult and bash without a valid argument are showing your true colors. Boehner didn't answer the questions because they were loaded. Interviews are partially scripted... if you follow the script then you'll constantly be on the defense.

  • @cccboothguys "Boehner didn't answer the questions because they were loaded"

    This wasn't a loaded question. It was an argument made my Greenspan that Boehner could argued against, but instead chose to ignore. All he did was describe what a good economy is. If he had an argument, he would have given it.

  • He WAS answering the question. The question posed was "Are these tax cuts paid for?". How do you pay for a tax cut? A tax cut simply means the government is receiving less revenue. The money never belonged to the government. The more shocking revelation is that if a tax cut extension will INCREASE the deficit, then it means that the administration had already accounted for the revenue AND spent it.

  • just answer the fuckiing question dickcheese .this fucking douchebag looks like he's on permanent vacation.

  • who,s hurting in cinncy not bonehead thats for sure.how the fuck could people vote for this bag o shit..

  • Fuck republicans... It's proven time and time again, they are all about themselves! Campaigning on for the rich and big corporations. I mean, the guy is asking a SIMPLE answer... The Tan Man can't even answer that! What a fucking JOKE!!!!

  • Liberal Democrats hate the rich more than they love economic growth or tax cuts for the middle class. Democrats find it is more emotionally satisfying to punish the wealthy than it is to assist the non-wealthy.

  • @BlackRepublican2010 You think tax cuts for the rich creates growth.Where have you been the last 10 years. Tax cuts for the rich has created debt and no job growth. Please do your research.It is not about punishing the wealthy,it is about them paying what they are supposed to pay prior to the Bush tax cuts.It is not a tax hike,it is about paying what they owe to keep the country functioning.They can still live in the lap of luxury after paying their taxes.Cry me a river, for pete's sake!

  • Answer the fucking question john! Jesus.

  • annoying orange.

  • Hmm...Boehner can't seem to defend my ambitions to take money from the middle class and buy my 7 yachts, 40 cars, 5 mansions, and 2 islands. I think I must replace him with another puppet...ah yes I still have my tea party minions...

  • Who's the Friggin Rich? People that make $250,00 a year are Rich now? Thats a couple making 125,000 each, take out the tax they pay, whats left? These rae the people that donate and employ people. Tax them more and they will spend less & no longer donate & u will need to rely on the Govt for help & they will say, "We Are Broke" because we stimulated GM and Banks. I donated to a lady who has cancer, did the Govt help her? NO. Go after Billionaires who have their money around the Globe

  • Bhoner looks like the kind of guy who would sell cigarettes to children.

  • @brokencountry123 haha . looks like we both made our youtube screen names in the same spirit of things. my last youtube account was called helpamerica12. Boehner is such a pig I cant believe he brought back the bush tax cuts. What a pig..

  • Do BILLIONAIRES really need tax cuts when we have such a massive deficit?

  • Boehner is treasonous.

  • This tax cut drama is just a black mail. Playing good guy/bad guy ritual is just a measure to open up the Social Security account policies for political manipulations so the public will have no saying. Be cautious how those impulsive gamblers collapse all assets of a family.

  • Unreal. The republicans are saying to the middle class: You get noting until the rich have their tax cuts. The rich worked hard they deserve the tax cuts, the middle class has been lazy, they bought houses they didn't deserve, they are at fault.

    Stand up citizen. Your being enslaved.

  • GW's tax cuts HEAVILY favored the rich. They received the lion's share and bought property in the Cayman's - and obviously didn't CREATE JOBS. They got those same tax cuts this year - where are the jobs? They got bailout to the max and then gave themselves nice multi-million dollar bonuses. Where are the jobs?

    Boehner is a capitalist pig who serves only the rich. Period.

    I sure hope middle-class Republicans are finally getting the message. It don't trickle down, folks. It's simply a gift

  • you know you're in trouble when the guy is ignoring the question.

  • Bush Tax cuts made us lose $2.5 trillion in revenue, and Bush only created 3-5 million jobs.

    Clinton had higher tax rates, and created 26 million jobs.

    Sickening that they want these tax cuts.

  • The Tax cuts need to end as well as spending cuts.The Boehner/Republican mantra on Tax cuts is nonsense and that has been proven in the last ten years.

    Job growth during the entire G.W.Bush years was pathetic.If the Rep. Don't want to give in on some taxes they are really gonna cry when we are forced to return to a 1950's era tax rate on the wealthy.

  • The commentator thinks he zinged Boehner. He knows he can't answer straight up. Here's the deal... NO the tax cuts are not paid for because of the liberal spending sprees of Bush and the congress of the past 40+ years starting with Johnson. But here is the big BUT, NEITHER ARE THE BAILOUTS. Why do you think the moneys we are getting from China are called loans! Why are we printing more money which devalues the dollar so that it buys less? Because we are 12 trillion in debt. We're broke.

  • @real012 The point is that the tax cuts are NOT paid for and adding further to the debt already there Republicans swore up and down that they would do something to stop more debt and cut spending.They lied to those who voted them back into office! they care only for the rich and not the middle class, dont you guys get that yet?They dont care about the 9/11 responders,the middle class.. Only the rich.Tax cuts do not create jobs.The rich hide money not taxed!Middle class repubs need to wake up!

  • He just can't get his head around the understanding that taking away something doesn't create something larger, the only thing that gets larger when you take something away is a hole. Voodoo economics are always going to be a political issue that Boehner and the rest of the G.O.P. won't admit is a lie. God, he spends a long time NOT answering the question.

  • Ever since Pres. Ronald Reagan administration we have been cutting taxes, with the Republican’s theory of if you cut taxes corporations will be able to keep and employ more Americans. If that is true shouldn’t we be at an unemployment rate of 4% to 5% throughout the country instead of an unemployment rate of 9% to 14%. With that said that shows you that Republicans are wrong about tax cuts for the rich and that they will put more Americans back to work.

  • wow greenspan is a hypocrite. how can he sit there and complain about people getting drunk off borrowed money when it was him who was supplying the alcohol? how the hell does someone who is so clueless about economics, become the same man who controls the entire money supply?

    also, i dont think people understand the relationship between tax revenue and tax rates. the more you tax, the less revenue you actually generate. taxable income elasticity!

  • One nation under god and one tax rate! the liberals scream about equality. Then they commit economic discrimination as policy! How do you "pay" for tax cuts? SPENDING CUTS!

  • Meanwhile congress split town today without voting to extend the tax cuts.

    Or finalize the budget.

    So they did nothing. And raised our taxes.

    Unreal.

  • Greenspan's "they do not" comment is true, if you look at nothing but tax cuts. Trouble is, we DO have runaway spending in Washington. Tax INCREASES support MORE runaway spending and we're getting SICK of that! We need to cut taxes and we need to STOP runaway spending so that businesses feel confident that they can safely begin spending their money on EMPLOYMENT. This isn't rocket science. It's common sense (which isn't very common in D.C.). 

  • @JHJennings Its common sense that tax cuts creates more debt. The Repub/Tea Party philosophy is to cut spending and reduce debt,right?This tax cut deal for the rich is creating more debt.This is unpaid for! During the tax cuts of 2001 to 2008, hardly any jobs were created.This repub talking point has been disproved and belongs in the circular file.Time for a new theory,ok?Middle class repubs were hoodwinked and you guys were warned about the repubs if they got back in power.

  • @jediknight0922 If we're standing side-by-side and only I have money, my not giving you any of my money does NOT create debt. Case closed!

  • Okay but dont you find it kind of weird how john literally doesnt answer any of the questions the interviewer is asking? Also you having more money has nothing to do with it. what It comes down too is who can afford too pay taxes and who cannot afford too. I think that billgates can afford it. But if your a millionare/billionare too I guess id understand why u'd support this jackass aka john boehner.

  • @whereisthesanity "from each according to his ability, to each according to his need", that's what Karl Marx said. Here in the U.S.A. most of us believe you should get to keep what you make. The freedom to do likewise is guaranteed to ALL. This is why we are great. Kill that and you kill the country. Boehner agrees with ME!

  • @JHJennings Sorry case isn't closed.The rich are not paying their share.Im sure you understand how the economics of the federal govt works,but,you cant see past the color red of your political ideology and conservative propaganda.Tax cuts for the rich CREATES debt.The rich are the biggest source of tax revenue for the country.There is a budget for the country to function(Defense,interstates,e­tc).The rich dont pay what theyre supposed to puts the budget into the red creating DEBT.

  • @jediknight0922 You're not entitled to the money of ANY American except yourself. It doesn't matter how much money anyone has. We are not Marxists where govt. gets to take from the rich and dole it out to the poor. This isn't the Ukraine. This is the USA.

  • @JHJennings Thank you for your reply, Glenn Beck..er JHJennings. Same old talking points.Say that when you retire and when and if you get that Social security check think about what you posted here because that is a check paid for by everyone else.If you cash it, that is hypocrisy.

  • @jediknight0922 OBAMA CREATES DEBT. NO ONE ELSE COMES CLOSE TO THE DEBT HE CREATES!

  • @JHJennings so? debt rises each and every year. Every dollar in circulation is a dollar of debt. This is the nature of the monetary system thanks to fractional reserve banking.

  • @JHJennings Conservatives/Republicans wants strong defense, strong border security,efficient clean uo measures for natural disasters,etc, but you how do you think its financed. TAXES!You guys want everything under the sun thats makes the country function but dont want to pay for it.It wont work under conservative idealism of no taxes, no govt, and everyone keeps all their money, but, we want the perfect govt to protect us in times of need.This ideology is asinine, hypocritical,and illogical.

  • @JHJennings Republs worship the Constitution when it benefits them but tries to change it when it doesn't(i.e. the 14th Amendment to try to stop anchor babies). I dont know if you realize it, but repubs are trying to go back to the days of the Articles of Confederation prior to the ratification of the Constitution.A loosely knit confederation of states that does their own thing with no central govt.That philosophy is detrimental to this republic.We have to pay taxes for the country to function.

  • He can't answer the question, OF COURSE THE TAX CUTS CAN'T PAY FOR THEMSELVES.

  • the only way u can have tax cuts is if u take in more taxes than u spend then u can cut taxes if u don't use the extra tax income to pay debt or to spend on infrastructure..the lie that tax cuts on the rich make jobs..that is a lie the rich try to make the simple minded believe so they can get richer that is what happened the rich got richer and the middle class got poorer since they are taking the burden of the rich tax breaks

  • Greenspan is correct although he really has no credibility at this point.

  • "The only way to get our economy going again and solve our budget problems is to get the economy moving, get more people back to work..."

    In order to get the economy "going" we have to get it "moving." WTH does that mean?

    What a dumbass, he can't even answer a question...then he starts talking about how you can't get the economy going again by RAISING taxes!! Way to spin it you boner!

  • @jammoutlv hey jam boy thats exactly what your boy daddybush did in 1989 to solve the last recession you guys caused between 81-88. the rich are hording theior money and using it to buy companies instead of job creation. so now if you erase the tax breaks then they either create jobs to get tax breaks or the pay higher taxes to offset the fed costs for tax breaks for helping the unemployed.

  • @tbaarr Hey buddy, BUSH ain't my fucking daddy. I didn't vote for either Bush. Real it in, OK? I am against Boehner and every thing that comes out of his orange mouth. Get it? Reagan tripled the national debt, then Bushie doubled it. Now they want to give the richest people more money so they can drop it into their savings accounts. They're not creating jobs. The need to give small businesses the tax breaks but BONER and the Greedy Old Party are currently blocking that legislation in the Senate.

  • Comment removed

  • How a nation comprised mostly of people who can hardly afford to eat at McDonalds could EVER be sold on a bunch of millionaires and billionaires getting tax cuts at all is just insane. That they're expiring and there's even a debate that anyone with a bit of shame would take up for extending them is absolutely comical. No shame, meet no brain.

  • @john176900 you have to remember that zealot christians are the main supporters of this repunk loser. all you have to say is gay marriage or abortion and them losers will always vote repunk.. even though you can prove to them that the repunks caused 2 recessions in a row with their trickle down lie.. 81-88 bubble burst recession 2001-2008 same bubble burst and recession. the bank failures are a mirror image. 1986 lincoln savings failed ..2006 indymac failed.. yet them losers still vote Repunk

  • @tbaarr I agree. It is foolish borderlining moronic to vote for someone or a party based solely on social issues. I dont care about how someone feels about gay marriage or abortion, etc. Its what they do in their job performance that matters most.What people do behind closed doors is totally irrelevant to the country falling apart economically. Republican voters are extremely misguided. Religious views shouldnt be a factor for political choices.That why there is a separation of church and state

  • Boehner is pretty good at dancing around the question isn't he ... the Tan Man can't answer the question because he knows the answer is no. This man needs to be taken out and hung from a tree by his toenails until he tells the truth ... "cart before the horse" ... what a freaking buffoon.

  • I really hate this guy. I really do.

  • David Gregory is a corporate tool. You might as well have the pro corporate guest on by themselves.

  • Nice tan.

  • answer the damn question Boehner. DAMMIT! >:(
