“In defeat, defiance.
In victory, magnanimity”

“Now don’t you ever do that again, Louie!”
Perhaps there is hope for Boehner after all. Any of the “conservatives” upset with Boehner for doing this would be upset because they have betrayed their supposed conservatives beliefs and have marked themselves for future handling by the base, a base they clearly despise and betray at first opportunity.
Maybe it's because because the challenges were such a joke its like it was planned by Boehner himself, like a setup.
Rep. Louie Gohmert never voted, IIRC.
I’ll wait to see what he’s given KS Rep. Tim Huelskamp, whom he had stripped of everything last year because Tim didn’t “play nice” with the establishment, before deciding Boehner’s showing magnanimity.
This is a putid attempt to placate the TEA PARTY. It won’t work. Boehner sucks. His is a pathetic rino liberal amnesty loving POFC. Go to Hell!!

They need to be slapped more.
Not that we didn't already know that there were Democrat infil-traitors in the GOP.
An anonymous Boehner loyalist serving in the House....
&&&
Tell us his name so that we will know not to trust his judgment.
The melted-down phone lines calling for Boehner’s ouster rattled him.
I wonder if the conservatives actually had enough votes to force a 2nd vote and Bohener negotiated with them to remain Speaker.
I prefer American Constitutional loyalists.
Is Steve King still on the immigration subcommittee.
Trey Gowdy almost cried when King made him look like a fool.
Here’s what these loyalists are really upset about. They sold their souls for personal gain and now they’re p-o’ed that people won’t craven aren’ being punished, that they’re getting some benefit without selling their souls. They’re angry at themselves for what they’ve become. Am I wrong?
Boehner loyalists... Is there such a thing as loyalty in the liberal GOP? ..
“We have your backs....” Not
Louis can't be bought with money, but the power of being head of a committee, that's just another kind of making nice, DC style.
I love Gohmert, but if he starts kissing boner butt, we'll know that the bribe worked.
I hope I'm wrong.
