On Monday, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin called for House Speaker John Boehner’s (R-OH) ouster and said she is rooting for Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) to replace him. “I love Louie Gohmert,” Palin said on Fox News’s Hannity. “I’ll be rooting for Louie.”
Palin said that Boehner, in asking President Barack Obama and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) to get Democrats to vote for the CRomnibus spending bill, made a choice to make deals with the far left instead of consulting with conservatives and the base.
She said that Boehner is someone who has “gone along just to get along with President Obama.” Saying that Boehner has never listened to the conservative base, Palin said that it is “unethical” and a “turn off” when “you campaign one way and you govern another way.” “We don’t have to put up with that,” Palin said.
Palin said conservatives need to thank establishment leaders like Boehner for their service and then demand “new energy.”

ME TOO, Sarah. ME TOO!
TEXAS, by God!!
Called and Tweeted my Rep, Joe Barton today. He hadn’t arrived in DC yet.
“Louie beats Johnny” would be a good thread title
BTTT
Just contacted my Rep. Trent Franks of the 8th. He was one of the no’s to the CRomnibus, so I’d like to think he is good for a vote ousting the tanned one.
As usual, Sarah gets it right.
Franks is a good one too encourage.
Sadly enough, I fear that Boo-hoo Boner will remain Speaker.
Not enough Pubbies will dare to dethrone the Weeper for fear that it may negatively affect their ‘career’ in the event that they fail.
This vote will decide who is GOP and who isn’t.
It is a very good litmus test of who are men of principle and who are the cyphers, placeholders, and hacks. We should print and distribute the list showing who voted how, and take aim accordingly. We must not forget who voted for Boehner; not one of them is worthy of office.
On the other hand, if there aren’t enough principled congressmen in the GOP to vote Boehner out, then I’m not GOP.
Didnt she endorse about 20 such successful congressional candidates? Hmmm.
“Governor Palin endorses 22 candidates for various offices during the midterms finals including senators, governors, lt. governors, congressmen, and attorney’s general. Of those so endorsed an incredible 20 were elected — contrasted with, for example, Hillary Clinton’s record of 8 wins out 24 endorsed candidates.”

Down with weepy clown!
It’s a vote to determine whether there is room for conservatives in the GOP. If Boehner is reelected, the answer is no.

Looks like he’s a shoo-in no matter how much people protest! The GOP-E will do whatever it wants regardless of how people feel.
Time to vote out all of the GOP-E incumbents!
ME TOO, Sarah. ME TOO!
Yep I’m with her!!!
