“...offered up bills too large to read, used parliamentary tricks to bring bills to the floor and has refused to take swift action against the president and his administration’s unconstitutional actions.”

EXCELLENT summary, Rep Gosar!

Call your Representative and tell him he needs to be a patriot and NOT vote for Bonehead. Then call all the other Representatives in your state.

We can do this, but you can’t sit on your hands!

If Republicans don't get a spine now, they will be irrelevant in a few election cycles.

Martha McSalley is my rep and I definitely intend to call her office and make my views known.

“Great News! Does anyone have a count?”

It’s currently at five, Bridentsine, Massie and Gosar, and we can assume that Gohmert and Yoho will vote for themselves, thus five not voting for Boehner.

I would be surprised if Steve Pearce of New Mexico doesn’t join in. He was one that opposed Boehner in 2012.

Getting rid of Boehner would be a great start to the year.

I thought there were 24 on Friday? Are these 5 different than those 24? Does anyone have a complete list?

Thank you Pauk Gosar from a fourth generation Arizona native on both sides of my family. My great-grandparents, my grand parents and my parents would thank you were they alive.And now my children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren will thank you if I can dilute the destructive influence of the degenerate left.

Please model courage, integrity and concern for the whole of this state. God bless you and God bless America.

There may be. But these five are the only ones who have publicly said they will not vote for Boehner.

My guess is that others are keeping quiet until the actual election time. And no doubt EVERY republican is being called incessantly by the powers that be.

Well Boner removed Justin Amash from a committee and supported a challenged in his district Primary so I’d say his vote would be against The disfunctional Erectile.

Bone-us is nothing but a socialist republican, they need to get rid of him as speaker and elect a real conservative.

‘If Republicans don’t get a spine now, they will be irrelevant in a few election cycles. ‘

The republicans you refer to have a spine, it’s just that they are socialists just like the democrats

My faith is being restored. I believe this Congress is shaping up nicely.

I’m pleased. However...

If the next two years are to be a bloody-knucked brawl with 0bama, how’s that gonna look to low-info voters in 2016?

We’ll STILL be, ‘The Party of No.’

The GOP SHOULD kick Boehner to the curb, but they better d@mn well be ready for the fight and the fall out. They had BETTER stay on message and on point...something I’ve not seen since, Oh, 1984 or so. Doofuses!

I’ll believe ‘change’ when I SEE it with my own lyin’ eyes. ;)

The more that come out, the more the other Republicans will grow a spine. There’s got to be a lot more who want to vote against him if they see the momentum changing against Boehner.
