The House repugicans are already fighting amongst themselves

Yes, the in-fighting has begun among the House rpugicans. And, some of them are already running to Politico to air their dirty laundry.

Have at it, repugicans:

Many of the critics are close to Speaker John Boehner (reptile-Ohio), who struggles more each day to keep his majority unified as a three-month spending showdown threatens to spill into April. The House passed $6 billion of spending cuts Tuesday, to bring the total cut to $10 billion.

“Yep, it is surprising,” Idaho Rep. Mike Simpson said of the difficulty convincing hard-liners that the leadership is cutting large amounts of spending. “I mean, this is three weeks; we’re cutting $6 billion. You know? It is surprising. This is the only time in my life where I can cut $6 billion in a three-week period and be called a liberal.”

Ohio Rep. Steve LaTourette, an appropriator close to Boehner, said repugicans are seeing a “constant tension” between “the Democratic Party that talks about cuts but doesn’t want to cut anything, and then you have my side, that wants to cut anything that moves.

“That creates this dynamic tension, and you have people in my party that are angry that we are not adding riders, or shutting down the government, things like that, but this is exactly what people expect us to do — find cuts and continue to talk,” LaTourette said.

Other repugicans are quietly complaining that a few bombastic members of their conference who regularly appear on TV create an outsize perception of pressure.

There are a lot of bombastic members of the repugican conference, but that Michele Bachmann (MN) sure gets a lot of air time, as does Steve King (IA). I'd rate them as beyond bombastic and further beyond - all the way to lunatic.

Aww, is there anything cuter that idiots and morons fighting between themselves to show who's stupider.
