That would be a good thing. The problem is the rest of the 233 are worthless idiots to. Is there a single good House member?

[chris37]

Yes, there’s a few, Gohmert for one.

If they grew some balls and did this, I would consider supporting them in 2014.

Right now, I’m not going to, because there is no reason to.

Tom McClintock is a piece of gold amongst the dreck.

[X-spurt]

Louie Gohmert, for one.

Congressman Allen West would be perfect. Talk about a shot across the bow!

[joesjane]

Oh and BTW, even though he was defeated in his last campaign...

The Constitution does not require that the Speaker be an elected Member of Congress, but no non-member has ever been elected to the office according to Article I, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution states, “The House of Representatives shall chuse (sic) their Speaker and other Officers.”

[Hildy]

Yes.

Yes there is and his name is Tim Huelscamp. Tim is in his first term from Kansas and was one of the top four guys removed from their House committees!

Boehner disliked Tim precisely because Time openly stated on Fox News and anywhere else he could speak that, "He wasn't sent to Washington to do the bidding of the Speaker, or the rest of the RNC leadership. He was sent to Washington to do the will of the good people of Kansas that sent him to do what he promised he would do!"

Of course, Tim couldn't be elected as Speaker as one has to kiss too many backsides of the other RNC toadies but if the House desired to elect a man of principle, they wouldn't do worse than elect Tim Huelscamp as Speaker.

[wku man]

Chafetz of Utah sounds like he's got his head screwed on straight. Labrador of Idaho is relatively new, but has shown he has b*lls and brains, plus, he's a Tea Party guy. He's too new to be Speaker, but he should be given a committee, to see if he has leadership potential.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
