Sucker!
I can tell you that the Fraud, Marsha Blackburn is catching hell on her Facebook page.
No amount of Kabuki dances, show votes or grandstanding will erase
the stench.
Week 1.
Has the EXEMPT GOP gotten rid of THEIR RomneyCARE/ObamaCARE
from which EXEMPT Boehner (and the other EXEMPT)
have made millions?
NOT a chance.
Has the EXEMPT GOP done one thing to stop the Tyrant
before whom EXEMPT Boehner bows low?
NOT a chance.
So they are using their ignorance as an excuse for their Boehner vote? Perhaps by primary season in 2016, conservatives can find smarter candidates.
Boehner and his supporters, especially his ostensible tea party supporters, should familiarize themselves with Dan Rostenkowski’s fall from grace. Things may get a little hot before ‘16 primary season rolls around if they don’t get right with the base.
Bonehead has put too many knives in our backs for us to trust him. The GOP congress has way too many sellouts and low information legislators.
“”It wasn’t the Republican votes against House Speaker John Boehner that truly rattled the GOP leadership, it was the phone calls,” Ferrechio wrote. “There were hundreds of them, jamming the phone lines of the district and Capitol offices of dozens of House GOP lawmakers.””
Is Breitbart accurately reporting? Were there truly only hundreds of phone calls? If that is all the phone calls the conservatives could muster, then we are doomed.
...and John Boehner is one of Obama's "liberal friends" - no matter WHAT he told you in your "man to man" talk with him.
And Boehner told Mr. Palazzo exactly what he wanted to hear, I'm sure.
Boehner is a glad-handing country clubber and not much else. He's obviously not a patriot.
Squishy Boner needs to understand:
a- Unlike himself, the conservatives who voted against him are responding to the voters who elected them
b- Without the Tea Party/ conservatives, Squishy would NOT be Speaker of the House, nor would Republicans control the Senate
Boehner is the wrong target. Better to go after his support base in the House rank and file. He’s only Speaker because they want him there.
Palazzo is in for a major effing disappointment.
Brooks said conservatives need to bring more members into their tent and work on electing more conservatives to the House, so that something like this effort could be more successful next time around.
Kind of hard to do when they change the districts to get rid of people like West.
First in 2010 it’s we only have the house, can’t do anything to stop Obamas agenda.
After taking both house and senate, it’s the above excuse.
How many of us would put up with these excuses from anyone else that we hired?

Making matters even more interesting was a statement that newly elected Rep. Mia Love (R-UT) had originally issued to the Washington Examiner. Love—who had not promised constituents ahead of time she’d oppose Boehner—had told the Examiner’s Ashe Schow that she believed a vote for a Republican alternative to Boehner to be a vote, in essence, for Pelosi.
“There were no qualified or notable campaigns for speaker within the Republican Party other than John Boehner,” Love said. “Casting a vote for a candidate who has not actively campaigned and does not have the support to be speaker is an indirect vote for Nancy Pelosi, and I will not vote for Nancy Pelosi.”
Love has been hammered by conservatives in the days since not only for voting for Boehner but also for the argument she made to an Examiner reporter who previously labeled the coup effort against Boehner as “farcical,” which essentially accused the 25 who stood up to Boehner of indirectly supporting Pelosi.
In a lengthy statement since provided to Breitbart News, Love admitted that her original comments to the Examiner were inaccurate and apologized.
On Tuesday, my vote for elect John Boehner as Speaker of the House was a vote for Republican Party unity, plain and simple. I don’t agree with everything Speaker Boehner has done or said, just as I have differences with many other colleagues. But I still have faith in our party and the American people who elected us to be in charge of both houses of Congress. Coming off a historic election that sent a strong message to Washington, I believe that now is the time to unify our party and our message around a positive reform agenda, not expose unnecessary division with symbolic votes that allow the Democrats and the media to divert the country’s attention away from our accomplishment. Republicans have substantive differences when it comes to policy and I look forward to having those debates. But I see greater benefit in using our first step to put our best foot forward.
I regret I misspoke when I said a vote against Boehner was an indirect vote for Nancy Pelosi. I understand now that is not the case. But I take serious issue with those who have hastily claimed I have ‘sold out’ or ‘broken my promises.’ On the contrary, my promise was to give a voice to the issues that are important to Utahns. And I have every intention of keeping that promise, and making them proud.
I will fight make this country more free, secure, and prosperous no matter who stands in the way – Republican or Democrat. I will spend every day in Congress defending hardworking taxpayers who want Washington to get out of their way. And I will work tooth and nail to make this government more efficient, effective, and accountable to the people. We can do this as a party, we can do this as a country, and I want to make sure we are all doing it together.
In Texas I was very unhappy with Ted Poe and was not surprised by the Piece of S*** Kevin Brady (my wife will only refer to him in this term!) Both went and voted for the Cheeto, crybaby, squish, wimp, drunk.
No, they are feeling the heat from their constituents. Gelded Old Pansies.
I don’t respect a single member who voted for Boehner. They always fool the uninformed Republican primary voters.
If you are elected as a representative of a district and your constituents are opposed to something or somebody, why are you voting YOUR way?
This is the major failing of our government. They talk; but they don’t listen. They make laws for others to follow, while exempting themselves.
I'm not for wasting perfectly-good Tootsie Rolls on those a**holes! If I box up anything, it'll be after my next trip to the bathroom...
And I'm saving the biggest, smelliest one for 'I-don't-like-being-called-squishy' John "Orange Is the New Yellow" Boehner.
