After historic win, Boehner complains 'we're behind'
wnd.com ^ | 1/1/15

Voters across America gave the GOP one of the biggest ever election victories in November, expanding its dominance in the U.S. House, giving it control of the U.S. Senate, dozens and dozens of state legislative chambers and governors offices. All in response to the constitutionally doubtful agenda on immigration and Obamacare pursued by Barack Obama.

So now the GOP is complaining about being behind the Democrats.

And that’s why, according to the man who started a “Dump Boehner” campaign to encourage GOP House members to remove Ohio Rep. John Boehner as speaker, that very campaign is needed.

A recent email from Keith Davis at the National Republican Congressional Committee stated plainly: “Friend, we’re already behind the Democrats – unless we receive your 2015 membership renewal of $50 or more today.”

A subsequent email from Boehner said: “Did you catch Keith’s note about your 2015 membership renewal? President Obama is pushing ahead with a reckless ‘my-way-or-the-highway’ approach and we need your 2015 membership commitment to stand strong in our fight for your priorities. Please renew your membership at $150, $100, or even just $50 and receive your exclusive 2015 NRCC Sustaining Membership Card. With your support in 2014 we won a new Senate majority and we won the largest conservative House majority in nearly a century. Our new American Congress is eager to get to work, and we need your help.”

Joseph Farah, WND founder, explained that’s the very reason for the Don’t be Yellow, Dump Boehner Now! campaign, which encourages constituents to let all 247 GOP members of the House majority know they need to pick another speaker for the coming Congress.

Get to your phones and call both your local offices and the DC office of ALL of your reps. Senate and House.

Sick to death of “it’s his turn as he’s senior.... BS... BS...BS...”

Dump these bonehead, usually drinking and no chin, no spine Mitch.

You can’t stop Obama until you DUMP THIS MISERABLE BASTARD!

I IGNORE phone calls and appeals from the Republican Party because of him. McConnell is NEXT!

Will neither forgive nor forget what the RINOS pulled on McDaniel in Mississippi.

Maybe Boehner was using the “royal ‘We’”.

This would make sense as he is far more interested in covering his own a** than doing the right thing.

Southern Democrats control not a single governorship, US senator or legislative chamber

You forgot about the popular "Bill" Nelson of FL.

Everyone knows the “A” hole follows the rear.

Denny Hastert was a crook but Boehner is just a total sell out. The worst I’ve ever seen.

Don’t be surprised to see the GOPe rhinos start asking democrat voters for money to fight the “Tea Party”.

They will create a straw man party to fight against, name it the Tea Party, and ask the democrat money men and voters for help.

Shameful!

That’s my guess, too. I know that there are two states, AZ and OH, however, I’d likely not visit or want to live in based on exactly this. Something seriously wrong in both.

Democrats act like moderates to get elected and then govern from the far left.

Republicans like Boehner act like conservatives to get elected and then govern hand-in-hand with the far left.

...I realize that’s a slight overstatement, but I’m very tired of watching the Democrats act like moderates to get elected and the Republicans act like conservatives to get elected.

Well in all honesty this happens in most states. We have a total RINO Johnny Isakson in GA and we cannot get rid of him. He has the Atlanta business crowd in his pocket and they keep him in office. I refuse to vote for him anymore.

Yep Isakson is dug in like a tick.

If John Boehner had any intention whatsoever of fighting for our priorities rather against them he would not have passed the 1.1 trillion dollar funding bill giving Obama everything he wanted for an entire year thus crippling the new Republican Majority.

John Boehner has to go, or the RNC does. Why on earth would we want to fund a man who’s priorities are quire obviously the same as Obamas?
