Better vote the way Boehner tells you too. Throw a little water on Boehner and maybe he'll dissolve like in the Wizard of Oz.

It’s amazing, this guy is such a wimp. All he ever does is back down and concede. But all the sudden he is Mr. Tough guy with his own base.

Everyone that voted to enable the GOP and their liberal candidate is responsible for this and what is to happen.

The enablers will be around in a bit to excoriate people with 'principles'.

The conservatives in the house need to band together and refuse to vote for Boner as speaker...even if that puts Pelosi back in.

Time to play hardball with this ahole!

Nazi Bonehead can’t let some conservatives stand in the way of his Grand
Bargain with Obama. You know the deal that raises taxes and doesnt cut spending...So this jack booted thug starts his purge. What goes
around, comes around Bonehead.
If this hack is willing to raise taxes, is amnesty far behind?

Did voting patterns every NOT determine assignments?

Seems to me this is how it's often done.

Unless you have an extremely popular and well-known Rep (which these four are not as they haven't been heard of until this week).

Bonehead is a school yard bully. After Zer0 kicks his ass again, he 'll go back to crying.

As Levin says, Bonehead is a munchkin.

It will be good when 'how it's often done'... is history.

I'll be glad when the GOP has gone the way of the Whigs.

So now voting patterns should not be considered in future.

Got it.

That's what GOP apologists have brought to the party.

Call the Boner’s office and tell him his influence, and his Party, is getting smaller by the day. Republicans better pull the plug on him before they all go over the political cliff.

Bonehead needs to be kicked out of the leadership ASAP. If the rest of the republicans in the house don’t remove this jackass then they too are just as complicit as he is with the obozo in the sinking America. Oh, what am I saying, the NDAA was passed over whelmingly by these same folks.

Thanks for the link Mike.
Interesting that it would only take 16 conservative votes against Nazi
Bonehead to keep him from leadership. Are there 16 conservatives who
are willing to send Bonehead a message?

I hope so.
