Here's the list of House members with a spine. I wish there were more, but today proves that most go along to get along.

It was all kabuki theater designed to give certain representatives cover.

One problem I see right here is lack of unity and purpose. It seems that people were off in all different directions. The outcome therefore was never in doubt and hardly surprising.

I'm not convinced these members weren't authorized to vote against the speaker as some kind of ploy to ingratiate them with their voters.

I do not believe anything I hear coming out of DC anymore.

Boehner is a Traitor. He is dangerous because he is either:

1. Ignorant/doesn’t believe 0bummer is ruining the country OR...
2. Does know 0bummer is ruining the country and is ok with it.
3. Third choice does not exist.

The voting was staged to pull in the patriots to vote against Boehner to give him and McConnel a reason to punish them.

We need to not stop calling Boehner’s office.

Pelosi hugged Boehner. Nuff said.

I just moved across town here in Orlando. My new Congresscritter is Dan Webster. Glad to see he ran against Boner, even though he didn’t win.

Just to clarify, #8 “Duncan” is Jeff Duncan (S.C.), and he voted for Trey Gowdy.

Apparently Jimmy Duncan Jr. (TN) voted for Boner.

Frankly folks, we’re kidding ourselves. Either we’re as marginally right as they think, or they have nearly joined the Democrats on the far left of the spectrum.

Our values being what they are, it’s obvious who is out of line, but how do we convey that to the populace?

Is it out of line to support:

1. Our Founding Documents, the Constitution of the United States among them
2. A strong defense
3. Reasoned Trade policies
4. A secure border
5. The protection of our own culture, so it survives
6. Reasoned spending
7. Reduction of our national debt
8. A return to sanity regarding the Welfare State, and all it includes
9. A return to reasoned interior policies, that balance protections of our forests with reasoned uses of them
10. Support business and employment in the United States of Citizens of the United States
11. Support of our allies, and firm policies against our enemies that block them and offer them a way to enter the civilized society
12. Policies that build up the United States and do not diminish it
13. Policies that treat all citizens by the same set of rules in all walks of life
14. Policies that seek to block terrorists and disease from entering the United States

The Democrat Party and the Republican Party want very little of this.

They are anti-American. There’s no two ways about it.

So everybody was afraid to buck the traitor establishment. It’s more proof that we the people have lost control of our government. It’s going to take a lot to restore the republic and end the dictatorship of the elites.

Tom McClintock (R-CA) I thought was a good pro American conservative but his vote for the bonehead says otherwise, a huge disappointment

The Fact that most of the Republicans reelected this rat that pushes the Administration agenda..... when the Administration was overwhelmingly defeated in the election last November tells us everything we need to know about the Republican party.

I am DONE with the Republicans. They will never get a single vote, penny, anything from me this day forward. In the past at least I supported the conservatives candidates. The conservatives left in the Republican party CANNOT get the votes or any job done.

All Boehner is going to do to push the Leftist Agenda. He is a Democrat with an R by his name. That just got reelected by the majority of Republicans. That clearly tells us everything we need to know about the Republicans.

Oh and that “Brilliant Strategy” of the defeat the party within has been a collisional failure.

The only way this mess will get straightened out is through another party. The Republicans are a joke!

Why did I not see Mia Love and Jason Chaffetz on the list?

I really expected at least one of my congress critters to vote for someone other than Boehner...Raul Labrador used to be considered a conservative.

I was also surprised that Mia Love voted for Boehner.

Tom McClintock was not on this list.

And, he's about as conservative as it gets.

WTF? What motivates a real, genuine conservative to vote for Boner?
