Boehner's Speech Humble But Strong

It is interesting that after Pelosi's speech which was longer than Boehner's. And also contained material that is not usually in a loser's speech before giving the gavel over. Nancy finally ended and sat down!!
Boehner came forth with a humble but strong description of what he hoped to do in the next congress.

He started with "We gather at a time of great challenges", and did not fail to mention giving America back to the people. He also added  "American people want a congress that is accessible."

First duty to Cut Congress's own Budget.
Legislation will be more focused and scrutinized.
We will listen to the people.
      *Open Debate without being disagreeable.
      *Peoples will be done
      *Build trust
      *Common good is why we serve
      *Do what we say we are going to do

He continued to say America is an ideal. "We will not always agree on what is right." "We can disagree without being disagreeable." It was a clear, short and concise message.

It is said he is not a partisan person.  He has been  known to reach over to the other side. His one statement I really liked, "This is the Peoples Congress."

Yesterday was a turning point for our country. Maybe it took an Obama to make us wake up and realize how important our Constitution is and the freedom it gives us. It is a revival of love and concern for this Country God Bless America
