Update: Boehner elected Speaker, loses 25 votes
Hot Air ^ | January 6, 2015 | Allahpundit

If you took the over on 19 votes, you won! There were 25 defectors on the Speaker, a number tantalizingly close to the 29 they needed. But then, that makes sense:

Your RINO made a “mistake” and couldn’t make it to work on time. Yeah right. Linda 2.0 (thanks ObamahatesPAcoal) is only fooling the slow ones. Well I guess it doesn’t matter since he and his amnesty loving self would just have voted for Boehner anyway. RINO twins — one House (Gowdy), one Senate (Graham). I don’t know how SC stands itself or those two traitors.

I wonder how many of the posters for this subject are really Democrats sewing dissension.

I just wonder.

But I saw the picture of Boehner kissing Nancy Pelosi. This is revoltingly bad taste on several levels.

Ughh! Does he think that this will make her his friend? How could he do that. Barf.

Do they just pull the wool or the whole sheep over your eyes to get you to support that amnesty loving RINO.

Yes, my rep is a true conservative: Bill Posey (Fl).

It will do you no good. He believes that the liberal way is the path of the future.

Boehner cries again: “Boehner, who contemplated last year not running for reelection, left the chamber before the tense roll call. But when he returned as Speaker once again, Boehner was visibly emotional, mentioning how he teared up when he saw his biggest fans outside the chamber, the young daughters of Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.).”

Here’s the primary difference between you and I.

I’ll bet I’m MORE conservative than you.

I get pretty angry with the lack of courage in D.C. and would love to go play smash-mouth there.

Since that’s not a realistic option, I have to be a realist.
That means understanding what’s possible.

You’re not there yet.

What are YOU going to do to fix the GOP and Washington politics in general?

Stay home?

You are right I’m not there yet.
In fact, I’m heading in a different direction.
I no longer believe the GOP is fixable.

To those that do, I wish you good luck and success.

Let’s not stop calling Gowdy, Boehner, etc. Let’s keep calling after a few days, too, as they haven’t cleared their voicemails. I’m sure they’ll just delete w/out listening. We need to leave them messages similar to, “Traiter, Woosie”.

Gowdy is a weasel, liar, punk.

RINOs continue to rule and I continue to refuse to the top of my head to rejoin the RINOcrat party. NOT ONE DANGED PENNY of my money. Go it alone. I ain’t giving to these hookers. That is what they are, Obama’s hookers.

Same thing I’ve been doing for years. I’ll write in the name of a real conservative, whether they are running for the office or not. My gigantic lying, amnesty traitor, RINO Rubio, is up next election cycle.

:: Our numbers are significant enough to end the GOP. ::

Think about this factoid, Freepers. I mean, really think about this and then take action.

hmmm....seems equally effective as staying home.

Are you writing letters to Rubio?

Are you active in local/county GOP, trying to change them from the inside?

Are you active in the most honest and effective Tea Party group in your area?

We have no representation in government.

Calls to mind some thing about "No taxation without representation..."

Ah, never mind. Look, a new iPhone!

Writing to Rubio about amnesty is about as effective as writing to dem Sen. Bill Nelson about amnesty. I’ve written them both, but I know the best I can expect from RINO Rubio is another set of lies.

There are too many libs who have discovered they can have their cake and eat it too if they just pretend to be conservative. People with blind spots to their fraud just let them go on. These RINOs complain that real conservatives are extremists and do all they can to destroy them. They spend their time reaching across the aisle to make buddies with the commie democrats and govern by compromise which actually means surrendering to go along with the other side.

They took an oath to defend the Constitution and they’ve turned their backs on the constituents they are purposely deceiving. Some people just want to give them a pass.
