Before the news of Mr. Boehner’s decision had even sunk in, conservative knives were out for the heir apparent, Kevin McCarthy of California, the House majority leader.

Mark Levin, the conservative talk show host, called Mr. McCarthy “Eric Cantor with 10 less I.Q. points,” a reference to the last House majority leader, who lost his seat to a Tea Party insurgent in 2014.

No, NYT. The sense of dread will come following CW-II, when we start building the guillotines. Don’t worry though, you will mosr certainly be there for the opening (heh) ceremony.

Resigning the Speakership is one thing, resigning from Congress entirely is another. Has Boehner fallen so badly in his own home district to prompt this, or is something else at play? It concerns me, what is in store, if Boehner has nothing to lose, and now he doesn’t.

A whole lot of sound & fury going on, signifying nothing. By hook or by crook they'll install another bum on par with the Crying Cheeto, back to business as usual. They don't fear us enough to do otherwise.

The sense of dread started when we took out our Congressman in a primary, the weasel Eric Cantor, even though he was Majority Leader.

There should have been many more weasels Cantorized last cycle.

ICYMI: Breitbart Exclusive: Governor Palin on Boehner’s Resignation

Posted on September 26 2015 - 9:36 AM - Posted by:

Over at Breitbart, Governor Palin remarks on the announcement of Speaker John Boehner’s decision to resign.

From the exclusive:

Palin noted, “The silver lining for the political establishment is that with all the time John Boehner has in the next year before he can legally become a lobbyist for special interests he represented as Speaker, he can work on his golf handicap.”

She also said:

Bold, independent Congressmen in Washington prove they’re to be reckoned with now, and they deserve voters’ thanks for doing what we sent them to do – shake up the status quo and get the country back on track. These Congressmen are in it for the right reason, and they ought to celebrate another victory for the grassroots! Thank them!

Governor Palin has been at the forefront of holding members of Congress accountable for quite some time now.  As you may recall, SarahPAC sent a message earlier this year when funding the "Bold, independent Congressman" who opposed Speaker Boehner previously.

Uber RINO McCarthy is not acceptable as Speaker.

If we get the Boehner Mini Me, nothing will change.

The GOP needs a fresh leadership team in the House and we also need to send the GOP Senate leadership packing as well.

Isn’t it strange that there is never any
democrat turmoil, no splits, no chaos,
no chasms...it’s all lock step and no one
questions why?
