Dedicated to John Boehner.

When That Fullness
Waxeth Timely, Friend,
Why, Then, Fancy
Whispering The Formulation?

"Just for the sake of argument, let me posit that John Boehner is NOT a sellout, a tool, a double agent, a doddering buffoon, a sad little throne-sniffer, a spineless sycophant, a Ruling Class meat puppet, and an obsequious piece of work."

Damn, that's a good list, gotta keep that one handy!

Night Of The Dull Knives, heh. 
It could also be titled Knight Of The Dull Knives, the Dauphin's Squire.

A spokesman for House Budget Committee chairman Rep. Paul Ryan – the Republican Party’s recent vice presidential candidate – didn’t immediately respond to a request from Breitbart News about whether Ryan agrees with Boehner’s move. Huelskamp and Amash both voted against the Ryan budget in committee and on the House floor, arguing it didn’t cut spending fast enough.

And it didn't.  We don't have ten years to dick around and that's what Ryan's budget called for.  Some might say that is/was a place to start, but I absolutely expect a conservative House member to vote his conscience and beliefs on such even when they disagree with the "leadership".

So this purge is looking perhaps to have Paul Ryan's fingerprints on it?  Maybe he better speak up, lest he be lumped in with his leadership?

Now, back on topic.  From the comments section, some genuine WTF Haiku

What thoughts, froward,
were testily featured
within that fracas?
