LIKE so many others, I was stunned by Speaker John A. Boehner’s announcement on Friday that he would step down at the end of October. For nearly six years — first as Republican whip and then as majority leader — I met with John on a daily, sometimes hourly, basis as we worked to lead the House Republican Conference. (SNIP) We are in the midst of a campaign to elect the next president. After two terms of President Obama, an economy that is growing too slowly and a retrenchment of American power abroad, the conservative to-do list for the next Republican president is quite long. That president’s success will require steady, capable hands in Congress to move a conservative vision forward. Now is not the time for more infighting. Now is the time to come together and lay out a positive, honest governing platform to take the country forward. This is what my friend John Boehner fought for, and this is what we must continue to fight for to honor his dedication to Congress and the American people.

Cantor writing his op-ed in the NYT says it all.
I am proud to have played a small role in helping Dave Brat unseat The weasel Eric Cantor.
He was about to betray us on amnesty last summer and we dispatched him, thereby stopping Rubio’s Gang bill in its tracks.
Many more Cheap Labor Express owned Congressman need to be Cantorized
Senore’ Cantor is sooo very much yesterdays news.1st Cantor. Next John Boehner, and we are coming for you next there Mitch.
“Who is Eric Cantor?”
I think he is a lobbyist. He used to be in Congress. He betrayed the voters and they kicked him out.
Are the Establishment/Progressive Republicans listening?
Boner needs to put on an apron and get on his hands and knees to help Jim Backus clean the floor so that Conservatives don't have to step in any of his mess.
So Cantor, a fat cat K street Millionaire lobbyist now just happen to pull together this pathetic tribute to this Crook .Bonehead resignation is being was spun as Bonehead just woke up yesterday and quit ! Who believes this spin. Bonehead has the record for having more former Aides in charge of K Street lobbyist groups. K Street Fired Bonehead. Trump has them freaked out and scared that Amnesty, TPP disaster, H1 Visas ,and never ending crony capialist deals will be stopped . McCarthy is a younger ,nasty , abd devious creep who hates conservatives and K Strett thinks can get all there demands rammed thru before the 2016 election scare off the bought off Reps. Read this. It looks like Zuckerberg , the left wing SF Amnesty Pimp not only owns Rubio but a House Speaker too ! http://www.latimes.com/local/politics/la-me-gop-silicon-valley-20140908-story.html
“Had Boenher actually fought for something”...........
Meaning ANYTHING of a conservative nature, this country wouldn’t be in the mess it is and odumbo would be irrelevant.
I see another Boehner if Cantor winds up in that “empty seat”
No. They are not listening. Have you read about Operation Hummingbird at Conservative Treehouse? Google it and check them out!
Same ole’ bullshit......rhinos can never seem to do conservative stuff.....explain how we had the House, the Senate and the presidency under Geo. W Bush and had record spending, pushed for amnesty, and cut not one dept. budget?
I wish I could believe that but I see no indicators at this time!!
In a world rife with terrorists, in which a drone or shoulder-fired weapon can do major damage to a structure and when both the POTUS and VPOTUS are often in the same building, being two heartbeats away from the Presidency is a bigger consideration than has been historically true. It raises the urgency with which we should monitor the process of Boehner's replacement.
