Do you think Boehner still thinks he's a shoo-in for the Speaker vote in January after these tactics?

He's acting like he's already secured the seat, but he doesn't have the official vote until January, right?

Maybe the caucus will remember that. It's not too late to put someone else forward for Speaker.

Boehner better watch out.

Can’t say what the membership will do. However if he kicks off 12 or 13
more members off committees, he won’t have the votes to be re-elected
speaker.

What boner and other rinos don’t get is that for the most part the Tea Party got promises from their candidates that they would not raise taxes.

OK, so you are a Tea Party candidate who won due to their efforts.

Maybe 500,000 people voted for you. If you follow boner, you have 500,000 who think (know) you are a liar.

Remember Bush and the “read my lips?. What happened to him?

The Tea Party got them elected, and what does the Tea Party stand for?

Taxed Enough Already.

Remember that chant at all of the early meetings?

Any Tea Party candidate who votes for any tax increase deserves to be tarred and feathered and ridden out on a rail, the way we did things 100 years ago.

Not because it is a good strategic move, or is not, but because of that thing called integrity.
