Please, God.

And please let Louie Gohmert take the reins!

That’s just the problem: getting 40 votes against JB is step 1. Getting somebody else that can get 218 the other, more important bit.

Did Boehner not already say he was giving up the job at te end of the session?

If this is so, Maybe he knows that he doesn’t have the support he wants ...

IIRC, it would have only taken 18 in January 2013, and they were about to vote him out, but Bachmann wilted.

There has been talk that Boehner would not even seek the speakership after this current term.

A thread earlier today, indicated that Cantor was making moves. Several weeks ago, there were threads about Ryan being interested.

“...if you’re Boehner, it’s an incentive to pass agenda items this year, like immigration reform, that you fear might otherwise alienate the tea party. Why not, if you’re being pushed towards the exit anyway?...
********************************************************************

I believe that Boehner’s years of alcohol abuse, combined with various elements of his life situation, have completely corrupted/distorted Boehner’s mind. At this point, I believe he is actually in league with others seeking to destroy America. I hope I’m wrong on this, but we’ll see later this year (perhaps as late as the lame duck session after this year’s November elections) if Boehner with DemocRAT support starts bringing up and advancing things such as “Immigration Reform” (known as Amnesty for those who see through it).

Boehner and his wife recently bought an expensive condo in Florida.

If the EXEMPT tyrants in the GOP,
who pass “laws” for others
(excepting Moslems and felons, of course)
think 350 million Americans are going to wait for them,
while Americans die from Obama”care” and open borders,
and the US Congress arming al Qaeda and destroying
American security,
then they have another thing coming.

They are going to be voted out of office, and then
held accountable for their corruption.

ANY Congressman that votes for Boehner should be removed from office at the next opportunity...

Never. Gonna. Happen.

The GOPe is entrenched. We hear this kind of thing all the time but nothing ever changes. What, they turn wholesale against the Tea Party and they are going to put a Tea Partier in the post?

If Boehner wants it. Sadly, it’s his.

Boner will be using the lame duck session after the 2014 midterms to push amnesty through, once the anticipated election gains are secured.
