Boner needs to go as Speaker, even if if takes re-electing Pelosi in Jan.

Boehner needs to go. Can a vote for Speaker be called at any time during the Congressional session, or once he is selected as Speaker does that entitle him to sit in the position for the entire two years?

[haircutter]

It is time for the House to let Boners know he is not going to be re elected the Speaker...The house turned Republican in 2010 because of Tea Party Conservatives...
he better learn who butters his toast...because he could be burnt toast soon...

I wonder if the Orange Pussy’s little Stalinist purge was the last straw for DeMint. It wouldn’t surprise me.

[headstamp 2]

Who is replacing DeMint?

[mylife]

Good for DeMint

Now that he’s retired from the Senate, the House Republicans should make DeMint Speaker of The House. It’s my understanding that the Speaker doesn’t HAVE to be a sitting Congressman. I wonder if getting a non-Congressman would net them an extra vote as well.

Jim DeMint is the real thing.
May he have much success at Heritage.

[Mozilla]

DeMint could have stuck around till Boner was deposed. You know. But It seems he has plans outside of DC to help the conservative movement. He was feeling like being in the senate was not enough.

“This government doesn’t need any more money, this country needs less government.”

That should have been the theme of this election cycle. We could have earned a lot more votes with this message. Instead it was....the economy sucks. I can do better...and that just made it a battle of two personalities, not two ideologies.

Last paragraph of the article:

“After this last election it’s apparent that we need to do more as conservatives to convince Americans that our ideas and our policies will make their lives better,” he said. “I can do that better at Heritage.”

Jim DeMint: still serving up platefulls of awesomesauce.

Yeah, and on Limbaugh's show, he blew a kiss towards Harry Reid. Pelosi showed the true spirit of bipartianship, however.

They are ALL captured by the system.

A $800 billion tax hike would be the undoing of America’s economy. This is money that will be taken out of free enterprise. It will be money that would go to capital now being flushed down the toilet of big government. Democrats will never use new taxes to reduce the deficit. Instead they will increase state workers and more government waste. This tax hike will take away investment money to grow new plant and pay for new government regulations.

The direct consequence would be to slow economic growth which would impact employment. It would be our nations future when our sons and daughters cannot find jobs in the areas they were educated. Will it be one more reason for corporations to move their operations out of the country?

On Rush’s show today he had DeMint and the retiring president of the Heritage Foundation on the phone. When Rush joked, “Now, Boehner didn’t force the two of you out, did he?” The two guests laughed and DeMint replied, “No, in fact it could go the other way.”

Rush didn’t follow up (and maybe he didn’t catch DeMint’s reply at all) but I found it VERY interesting.

I know this may sound crazy, but I am convinced that Boehner has gone the way of General Petraeus.

The democrats most likely have something dirty on him, and they are blackmailing him into going along with Obama's crap.

I cannot honestly think of why else he would conduct such outrageous behavior lately.
