Useless complicit, enabling, treasonous EXEMPT RINO:
"It is good to be king, my most beloved Master."

A day after he took swift action to punish two allies who crossed him in Tuesday’s vote for speaker, it looks like he might backtrack.
Some of the House conservatives who betrayed Speaker John Boehner might escape immediate retribution after all.
Boehner is in a familiar jam: Many of his closest allies want him to pummel members who defy him. The rank and file think retribution is a step too far. And Boehner’s style deters him from punishing people, even when they publicly embarrass him.
His allies could be disappointed again this time, even after more than two dozen House members crossed Boehner in Tuesday’s speaker election.
Some lawmakers and aides close to Boehner say Rep. Richard Nugent (R-Fla.) might win back his prized seat on the elite, speaker-appointed Rules Committee, and Reps. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) and Scott Garrett (R-N.J.) may even get to chair subcommittees on other panels, even though all three voted against Boehner. Senior GOP leadership aides say no final decisions have been made, but the prospect of letting the dissenters off easy is galling to some of the speaker’s closest allies, who want blood — and seem angry he isn’t willing to spill it.

So he'll likely back off his heavy-handed, oligarchic, dictatorial tactics.
But I'm not naïve, Boehner will get back at these people in other ways.

welcome to our world!
The bone head needs to get out of our house.
Look what happened with the budget. Instead of standing firm, they used Ryan to circumvent conservatives.
“welcome to our world!”
No kidding!!
Poor Boner, what a predicament. He is totally in the tank for Obola and his regime, but when it comes down to actually slitting throats, he doesn't have the guts to draw the knife.
To both sides, he's effeminite.
“who betrayed Speaker John Boehner”
betrayed? Man that kinda spin belongs in major league baseball.
None of Boehner’s closest “allies” are even in the House. They are the billionaires and America-hating globalists.
Maybe take a close look at Ohio—those were the only voters he thanked. Wonder where the bodies are buried?
Well IF he looks at his facebook page, although the POS doesn’t have a “comment” button, you have to comment on one of his stupid posts,he is being ripped to shreds! I love it. I was one ripping him up.
No. They will OWE HIM. (He surmises)
Exactly correct. OUR House; not Boehner’s.
Useless complicit, enabling, treasonous EXEMPT RINO:
"It is good to be king, my most beloved Master."
Boehner is a tyrant that has usurped the representative power of the people for himself. He is no different than Obama
If Boehner was a grown up, he would have resigned the speakership like he promised to do 4 years ago.
How benevolent of him.
If he were serious about making things right, he’d kill himself and spare us his Obama cuddling idiocy!
