One can only hope.

Where, oh where, will the GOPe find a worse replacement?

Maybe they could draft Debbie Washerwoman-Shultz?

No matter the reasons, they still should remove him...

He's NOT doing the job, he's doing everything against our wishes...

People vote these people into office to represent US, not them, if they can't handle the pressure, then they shouldn't run or should be removed...he definitely should be removed....

Having the votes to remove him is one thing.

Having the votes to replace him with anyone who is any better is something else again.

Some commentators think he may have to cut a deal with Pelosi to hold on to power. The only problem with that is that he has nothing left to deal with — he already gives the Pelosi everything she wants.

The GOP Leadership report card has all "O"s for Obama policy.

Levin was right, GOP election victories based on lies.

The whole House votes on the Speaker and if it comes down to it, the dems will save Little Johnny. After all, he’s a proven lying SOB, to the left of most dems, and advances the kenyan’s agenda - in short a dem operative in the GOP camp.

Boehner is too useful to socialist agenda for that to be allowed to happen. I predict he squeaks by.

Boehner would then not have to worry about the appearance of golfing with Obama. But then he might just find out that Obama doesn't want to play golf with him anymore, for some reason.

Last night at Congressman Scott Tipton's townhall meeting in Grand Junction, he got repeated demands from the audience for Boehner to be removed from his position.

I heard a report that said just the opposite, that Meadows could have called for a prompt vote (it would be required within two working days of the House, something like that) but he knew he didn't have the votes and so brought it up as a "resolution" for future consideration.

In fact I just googled him and found these quotes:

Meadows said Tuesday that he was trying to force a "family conversation" among Republicans on the course of congressional leadership after a series of conflicts between Boehner's leadership team and a cadre of a few dozen conservatives.

"It's really more about trying to have a conversation on making this place work, where everybody's voice matters, where there's not a punitive culture," (Meadows) said. "Hopefully, we'll have some discussion about that in the days and weeks to come.

"What I'm hopeful for is this provides perhaps the impetus to have a discussion, a family discussion, where we can start talking about how we can make sure that every voice, every vote matters, and really about representing the American people," he said. "Ultimately what I want to is to make sure everyone is treated fairly."

Quotes came from Washington Post so.... But it all sounds like just more horseshirt to me.

In 2012, the insane GOP sought out the ONE person who
created ObamaCARE (RomneyCARE) to go against ObamaCARE.

Today, the insane GOP uses the ONE person as leader
who actually licks Obama a$$ every chance that he can
to golf with him, to make money off of ObamaCARE,
and to keep HIS family, and HIS Staff, EXEMPT.

The problem with this process is that if Boehner is removed, they will get the “next” in line, not the “best” in line.

All civil service, with the exception of the military (in some cases), is infected with the notion that the longer you are employed, the better you get. Colloquially referred to as the Peter Principle. It just isn’t so. Some are born to lead, some to follow and some to be eaten.
