After 25 Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives embarrassed Speaker John Boehner by voting against his re-election bid, the newly re-elected Boehner has begun to exact his revenge on those that opposed him.
According to a Politico source, conservative House members Daniel Webster and Rich Nugent, both from Florida, will lose their spots on the highly coveted House Rules Committee.

” Of course how do you fix 300 million people?”
Well, one thing you don’t do is RECRUIT poor hispanics from multiple countries to come here. They have no allegiance to anything but a welfare check, free medical, and food stamps.
I believe Obama SOLICITED the kids last summer to see if he could get away with it without deporting them. He got away with it, so I expect a 12 month STAMPEDE to begin this summer, and of course, never end.
Maybe nobody survives... God never promised this world would be anything better than a waystop to hell.
” In the long term, Obamacare will stop up what had been the fountain of the best health care progress in the world, namely the market driven USA.”
Yep
Talk to a few doctors....it already has.
I’m not surprised at the behavior so much as the open admission of the behavior. since the election they don’t even try to hide that they’re nothing but gangsters.
BOEHNER... SQUISH TO HIS ENEMIES, BULLY TO HIS FRIENDS
He’s a winner that can work the system. And as he’s showing, the rules strictly enforce the boundaries. The gave it a try, their hearts were in the right place. But they lost, their fates are set. At least they won’t actually get executed, only their careers.
Sad to hear the comment about how the denizens of the parrot cage figure they don't need - why don't we just say it? - the Tea Party types. They do, of course; at least they do if they intend to conduct a principled opposition to the radical progressives. They'll need every vote they can get.
If, however, it's going to be politics as usual and give the administration everything they want, being rewarded with a little media stroking as "statesmanlike" and "bi-partisan", then no, they don't need the distraction of somebody actually calling them to their ostensible jobs. This is not a principled opposition, it is neither principled nor an opposition.
They have been quite open for several years now. The problem is people refused to take the blinders off and made excuses for all of it. And FR is a chronicle of that as it documented people, daily, posting one excuse for the GOP’s actions after another. Every day. E V E R Y D A Y.
Now, we are at the point that even the blindest can no longer deny it. And yet every day we have posts like this...

So the logical conclusion is that many people WANT it.We are Far Far beyond the time that lightbulbs should have turned on. It’s nice they still are, but it’s too late.
But of course, a rank loser from the point of view of the constitutional duty he has.
squishbully.
By ‘angry’ I assume Boehner means ‘so cross I’m a tell your momma on you!’
So mad that he will quit sharing the spoils.
Squishbully.
I don’t do rhetoric, I do practical reality because that’s what actually matters. And in that world he ain’t a squish, he’s a skilled power broker that just crushed a coupe. All the rhetoric in the world doesn’t change the fact that he won the right of retribution.
And all the rhetoric in the world doesn’t hide the fact that the world does not end there and neither does “karma.”
Squishbully. Should be shamed from coast to coast.
spot on...this image is the heart and soul of satire... better watch out though, Boner might want to take out the cartoonist who created this image...
It’s openly us vs them now. I KNOW I KNOW it’s been that way for quite some time but before they at least put some effort into making a show of giving a damn about the people that voted for them. I find that escalation disturbing.
It’s now openly the DC elites vs us and how dare any of DCs own special people vote against Boner! As tho it’s all about Boner. It’s openly all about their power and F us little people. They don’t give two hoots that voters wanted Boners ass canned. THEY want him in! They are the important people.
This is a new attitude from them. openly hostile to the people.
And what do you want to do, wallow in hell’s cheering section? That is a squishbully.
