On Monday, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin called for House Speaker John Boehners (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 Newss Hannity. Ill 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 dont 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.

YES!
Maybe he needs bodyguards or a posse to find him, protect him and get him there......
Give Boehner a real reason to cry again.
We hear ya Sarah ! I’m good with that.
Louie Gohmert Louie !
Thank goodness we have Sarah Palin who is willing to make an example of throttling Boehner right down to the wire.
LOUIE GOHMERT LOUIE !
“Time to vote out all of the GOP-E incumbents!”
Uhhh, because that’s been such a successful strategy to date?
Emailed my Rep, this AM. Dropped a political name that let him know his vote on this is being held to account. We shall see...
GOPe = Small Tent Republicans
If Boehner retains the Speakers gavel after the deceptive means he had the crominbus approved, and after telling our elected representatives that they weren’t allowed to read a 1000+ page bill, then I am done with the republican party. I’ve said it in the past, and I’ve taken steps, and then they pulled me back in at election time.
This time I have no alternative. The lies of a campaign becoming evident after the election isn’t new. What’s new is that they’re following the policies of the people I opposed for the most part, so that one way or another I end up with one brand of socialism or another.
I can no longer in good conscience continue to do the same thing over again.
Has Ted Cruz called for a New Speaker? If not, then why not?
Lee? Sessions? Rubio? Perry? Gingrich? Santorum? Anyone?
Only Palin? If Cruz does not, then I have problems with that.
I am disgusted with Boehner and his ilk.
The only thing I am hesitant about leaving the party is that here in Maryland, independents can not vote in the primary elections.
Cruz is a Senator. He doesn’t get a vote in the House.
She's not going to win this one. Just because Gohmert and Yoho can get 29 people to vote against Boehner that doesn't mean they can get 218 to vote for them. In the slim chance the vote for speaker goes more than one round, Boehner will make deals with some of those who voted against him and he'll be elected. It stinks, but that's just how it is.
Just sent a missive to my rep - Palazzo - urging him to vote Gohmert and to refuse to support the backstabbing Boehner.
Something has got to be done to get a message that their will be consequences for whoring yourself out as a member of the Party of Government.
Even the fact that we are even talking about this shows that the GOP voters are tired of this crap.
Many non-GOPer's have started to vote for them recently, on BOTH sides of the Political Spectrum, Liberals and Conservative Non-Republicans.
For differnt reasons of course.
But I am still inspired and rejuvinated by this, because the establishment will now have to win every single battle.
While we only have to not loose.
Offense V.S. Defense, keep your enemy reacting to YOU.
Good for Sarah!
Cruz is a Senator. He doesnt get a vote in the House.
Same goes for Sarah but at least she is being heard.
