Boehner beats Pelosi any day

Friday's editorial "Boehner holds the key" (July 15) admonishes the Republican leader to "remember that he is speaker of the entire House not just the tea party wing."

I don't recall reading a heading like that when Nancy Pelosi was speaker of the House. She excluded Republicans from meetings that were held behind closed doors. During the Obamacare debate she told them to vote on the bill so they could know what was in it!

She ruled with a iron fist.

John Boehner is concerned about the welfare of our country and its people.
