January 5, 2015 | Self

LibFreeUSA suggested this on the thread linked below, but didn't see one in my search.

Starting a thread to keep a running total of those Republicans that have publically stated that they will not vote for Boehner for Speaker.

I hear many more members are working on statements to oppose Boehner as we speak...[and Stutzman]

When it really matters we’re leaderless because when it really matters the regime tells our hostage leaders they can’t lead us without losing their jobs/livelihoods.

That’s why Sharyl Atkisson gave up her job. As long as she depended on a paycheck from compromised people, she could never really be a reporter. As long as ClearChannel depends on FCC approval for its existence, its on-air personalities will always be told to stand down WHEN IT REALLY MATTERS.

Rush is really frustrating me. I turned him off an hour ago. I’ll go with your explanation.

republican rep McSally saying because she won by only 170 votes, this is a signal to her that “we want” her to go to DC and compromise.

This is the swill that poured from Harry Reid's filthy sewer on election night. Someone ask her if she campaigned on compromise.

And if her opponent who got almost 50% of the vote campaigned on compromise.

My bet is that 100% of the voters voted for a candidate who DIDN’T campaign on “compromise”.

It reminds me of Solomon saying that since he couldn’t know who was the real mother of the baby, he should cut the baby in half and give half to each woman. Seems like McSally is saying since the country can’t decide what direction it wants to go, it should be cut in half so each side gets a little bit.

Trouble is, Solomon never said the baby SHOULD be cut in half. He only used the prospect of “compromise” to reveal who was the real mother - the one who really loved the child. The one who was willing to compromise in order to be “fair” was NOT the one who really loved the baby.

No, I don’t, but initially I thought they didn’t have any allegiance towards Boehner, so would feel freer to vote for someone else, especially since at least of them are supposed TEA Party nominees. However, I read something on a FR thread in which Mia Love didn’t outright say she’d vote for Boehner, but it didn’t sound like she would vote against him (the post indicated that Boehner campaigned and/or raised funds for her, so she probably feels she “owes” him). That REALLY disappoints me! I’ve heard her speak on TV and in person and always thought she was great and more of a Constitutional Conservative. If she votes for Boehner, I won’t be very happy because what she says and how she votes (like others) isn’t always the same thing.

I went to the store and am back now to see what Hannity has to say. Who cares if there is a black James Bond or white James Bond. He spent an ordinate amount of time on that.

Hannity’s also telling us to call our Representatives. And he's giving the background on the spending bill.

It gets worse...she went on to spend a lot of time talking about
Sylvester Stallone reprising his Rambo roll...that took precedence!

Sorry to burst your bubble. (Long time now I’ve seen her think she, and her opinion, are more important than any guest or caller...)

Lessee, it takes 26 to deny him the office, right? How many with the testicular fortitude to pull that one off? Not enough, I'll bet. Well according to the pundits at FOX there aren't enough. And of course they'd have to hold fast under successive re-votes while keeping their arms from being dis-articulated between votes by the RINO coalition.... I can't wait. Popping my Kettle Corn now.....

I just called Walter B. Jones (R) office and they said he wasn’t going to vote for Boehner. I don’t see him on the list as a public yes. Has he announced?

I don’t know, but the fact that the list is bigger than 14 gives me some hope.

Solomon, wrong mother, right mother—in that order. Not the best version I’ve heard but moving nonetheless, especially the real mother:
