“The false information about voting for candidates other than Boehner leading to Nancy Pelosi becoming Speaker was spread by my Republican Congressman Scott Perry of Pennsylvania in media appearances on local talk shows.
Perry was defending his support for Boehner last time.”
Thank you for this info. Typical RINO tactic.

Unfortunately, my rep is a RAT (Yarmuth), who won’t even answer phone calls. He has spoken out with stupid statements more in the last month than his entire time in office. I wonder if he is considering running against Rand Paul in 2016.

These articles....and calls/faxes/emails/tweets to Reps and family and friends, need to go viral by tomorrow. Tuesday is the day they vote, correct?

Absolutely!
We need the mainstream press to pick up on this also. Let's send the info to the mainstream press too!

What are the long shot odds Boehner would see the writing on the wall and withdraw his name? Zero? Snowball in H*ll?

texas has 25 R members - 4 of which are on in house liberty caucus... were any of the original 12 members of HLC or texas? If not....
12+25+36-4[if texas stands w/ Gohmert]= 69 or so....
add a few in Ga and it’s 60. Before long it’s real money.

From an old Roll Call

(For those keeping track, there were 12 Republicans who didnt vote for Boehner as speaker the last time: Gohmert, Huelskamp, Justin Amash of Michigan, Jim Bridenstine of Oklahoma, Paul Broun of Georgia, Walter B. Jones of North Carolina, Raúl R. Labrador of Idaho, Thomas Massie of Kentucky, Mick Mulvaney of South Carolina, Steve Pearce of New Mexico, Steve Stockman of Texas and Ted Yoho of Florida.)

"vote for an adult American citizen"That's a loaded requirement.
It's time to grow up.
I hope the next Speaker will be voted on also based on his ability to read and comprehend what he has read.
To: FR_addict
It’s encouraging that some republicans are now confident enough to make public statements of intent to become the new speaker. Of the two men, Louie Gohmert is more well known than Yoho, but we shall see. Last time we went through this selection, a Senator Labrador expressed interest in becoming Speaker. I hear nothing from him now, so perhaps his interest has now waned.
To: Jim Robinson
I'm going to be all over my congresscritter tomorrow morning to encourage him to support Louie ... and dump Boo Hoo. He's conservative enough that he just might do it.

Louie Gomert is a great American and also Ted Yoho.
Yoho just voted for the Obama-Boehner amnesty cromnibus bill. Don’t be fooled by his fake conservatism. It’s all for show.

It is certainly time to put up or shut up. Talk is cheap and I hear many congressmen in the GOP talk tough but act soft.
