WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner said on Thursday he doesn't like being called "spineless" or a "squish" by critics, and he vowed to prove his mettle to lawmakers who bopposed his re-election earlier this week.
Boehner was re-elected Speaker of the House on Tuesday even as 25 members of his own Republican party declined to support him, the biggest such intra-party rebellion against a speaker candidate since 1859. His detractors, many of them on the right wing of his party, say Boehner is too prone to compromise with Democrats.
Boehner said that portrayal is false.
"During my years here when I voted, I have the eighth most conservative voting record in the Congress. And it does pain me to be described as spineless or a squish," he told reporters.
Since becoming speaker in 2011, Boehner has faced a series of internal challenges to his leadership, particularly on his handling of budget matters in which small-government Tea Party Republicans have demanded a more aggressive confrontation of President Barack Obama's agenda.
In 2013, Boehner warned against a government shutdown, but Tea Party lawmakers pushed for a showdown over Obama's healthcare law that resulted in a 16-day closure of the federal government.

Boehner you’re spineless.
“How does he feel about A**hole!!”
That’s the first thing I thought of too. The second thing was closely related...(ass wipe). Boehner is a worthless disgrace to this nation.
The truth hurts John, but it needs to be said.
In a related note, jellyfish were complaining about being compared to Boehner...
Speak-easy is also a cowardly LIAR.
how about... a feckless, spineless, wimpy, sellout, crybaby, soft, weak-kneed, yellow-bellied, pitiful, feeble, gutless, cowardly, Obama loving turncoat?
Stupid should hurt, John.
he hasn’t heard what others have been calling him.

Good for you.
Your action as Speaker are what has everybody upset.
Dear John, don’t whine. Just show a backbone.
I wonder if he would be offended by, ‘Grandpa’?
Does he like being called a rodent?
Post of the Thread Award!!!
Do I have a Second?
Screw you, Boehner.
Is this guy a dumb effer or what?
He's been hangin with ratz for so long, he's developed that delusional way of thinking that all ratz have.
I'd go on, but why waste a good keyboard. Besides, everyone here already knows how ba!!e$$ he is anyway.
He’s NOT spineless. He’s a criminal.

You are so far up it there pal.
Don’t like it? You are what you are, nobody said you have to like it.
