Go, Louie, GO!! Dump Boehner!!

Louie Gohmert as Speaker is almost too much to hope for, but I'll sure keep my fingers crossed. Boehner has GOT to go.

Don’t worry about Louie. He can take everything that the progressives bring his way.

“If Pelosi’s caucus votes for Boehner...”

Do you expect to be taken seriously?

“You need a majority to win of your party’s caucus.”

That’s not even a coherent sentence.

Unless Boehner goes, a new party will be needed before I will vote again. People need to review what crooked ends Haley Barbour went to so they could defeat a Tea Party candidate in Mississippi. They are thug politians!

Ahh, but as another poster pointed out, if the ‘rats vote present, that reduces the number necessary for a first ballot win. Which is what is likely to happen.

But it’s really academic. This has been scripted and choreographed from the get go. I’d expect nothing less from the House of Kabuki. There will be a dramatic vote, but rest assured the uniparty candidate will win.

“I bet he is drinking a triple martini right about now, knowing his fate is sealed. Maybe he is sitting in a corner crying. Time will tell.”

More likely he’s laughing his arse off at the naive rubes who think the end result hasn’t already been decided.

Don’t worry, the powers that be tried to erode Louie’s percentage of the vote this time, and Louie who won last time with 75% got 78% this recent election.

It would be nice if Levin, Hannity, Limbaugh, Savage and Ingraham all endorse Louie. Freepers who regularly contact these radio hosts should contact them and urge them to do more than complain about boner.

Much of our media is just as corrupt as many running our government these days

Some might say that has everything to do with the fact that the media and those in the DC establishment are controlled by the same people. Check out the link below. Watch the trailer and then click on the link to the official film report.

I don't have any pull, but we need to send them email.
Anyone have the email addresses for these folks. We need to do this now so that they have it for their Monday radio show.

I've used these two emails before, but don't know if there are better email addresses:
rush@eibnet.com
hannity@foxnews.com
Maybe be one for Hannity’s radio show would be better.

“Do you expect to be taken seriously?”

All I have seen here for the past 3 months is Boehner is a democrat. He will caucus with democrats, he hates the TEA party. Why would Pelosi tell her caucus to vote against him? They do more damage to the TEA party voting for Boehner than against him.

If Boehner loses his seat to the TEA party, the rats are toast. Will Pelosi do it? Probably not, they are rats and will figure out a way to screw it up. All Boehner will do is throw them a lifeline and really screw it up.

The leadership vote should separate the men from the boys, if you know what I mean and I think you do.

Besides The Hill, and Fox News, the announcement is in the Washington Times, the Daily Caller, the Blaze, National Review, and the Washington Post. This is great for Louie and for us!

They would do it too, if they think Louie has any chance of winning. The RINOs would rather have Peelousy as Speaker again than have Gohmert.

CNN covered it too, but I had to search for the story on their site:
