Roskam: Republicans Gather Enough Votes For Special Conference To Slow Down Speakership Election

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/09/27/roskam-republicans-gather-enough-votes-special-conference-slow-speakership-election/

Republicans in the House of Representatives have banded together to ensure a cooperative debate on strategy and party disagreements before House GOP conference chairwoman Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA){49% Liberty Score} can try to help House Majority Leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA){45% Liberty Score} take Rep. John Boehner’s (R-OH){35% Liberty Score} soon-to-be-vacated job as House Speaker, and instead force a special extended conference meeting that can now happen without McMorris Rodgers’ approval.

The debate is enabled by Rep. Peter Roskam (R-IL){56% Liberty Score}, who was circulating a letter to his colleagues calling for debate on the Speakership process. At least 50 fellow GOP members have signed Roskam’s letter calling for a special conference meeting.

Thank you. On the face of it that sounds encouraging.

Pardon my ignorance, but the “yellowstain” in the headline, does that refer to his teeth, his fake tan or his underwear?

It's a reference from "The Caine Mutiny." "Queeg is dubbed "Old Yellowstain" by the officers following the invasion of Kwajalein. Ordered to escort low-lying landing craft to their line of departure, the Caine instead drops a yellow dye marker to mark the spot, and hastily leaves the battle area."


The naval reference was thoughtfully chosen. Per Wikipedia:

Boehner attended Cincinnati's Moeller High School and was a linebacker on the school's football team, where he was coached by future Notre Dame coach Gerry Faust.
Graduating from Moeller in 1968, when U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War was at its peak, Boehner enlisted in the United States Navy but was honorably discharged after eight weeks because of a bad back. ... .

Great find!

Clearly Boehner’s principle-deficient life began early.
