I THINK I GET REP. BOEHNER'S (R) LOGIC

A few years ago I was in a online debate with a conservative about whether or not some claim was true. In the end, the conservative wrote that true or false would be decided by the election and I think that's what Boehner means in this exchange captured by Faiz Shakir at Think Progress:

WALLACE: Congressman — a number of top economists say what we need is more economic stimulus.

BOEHNER: Well, I don’t need to see GDP numbers or to listen to economists. All I need to do is listen to the American people, because they’ve been asking the question now for 18 months, “where are the jobs?”

All that really matters is getting the rubes to vote GOP.
