Boehner: I've Been 'Changing A Lot Of Things In This Town'

From The Daily Caller: Responding to President Barack Obama saying Washington cannot be changed from the “inside,” House Speaker John Boehner labeled the comment “troubling” and the president’s “latest excuse,” adding that he has been “changing a lot” in Washington. Boehner also said House Democrats should be blaming the Senate for its sluggishness because Majority Leader Harry Reid and Senate Democrats have not passed a budget in three years. “Well, you actually can change Washington from the inside. It takes courage, it takes determination and it takes sincerity and it’s called leadership and I’ve been here for 22 years. I’ve been involved in changing a lot of things in this town. From my days as a member of the gang of seven, closing the House bank, trying to get Congress to run more efficiently and more professionally,” Boehner said Friday at the Capitol.
