John Boehner Embarrassed: His Whip Team Couldn’t Find Votes To Reelect Him Speaker Last Week

Breitbart ^ | 8/2/15 | Matthew Boyle

[jimbo123]

House Speaker Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) had been planning to call up on the House floor last week a measure from Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) that would have removed him as Speaker of the House if it succeeded—intending to embarrass Meadows—but abandoned the plan after his entire leadership structure learned that they did not have the votes to re-elect him as Speaker before the August recess.

“[House Majority Leader Kevin] McCarthy was making phone calls—he was whipping it—and so was [House Majority Whip] Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA),” a senior conservative movement leader who’s had many personal and direct discussions with various House GOP members about this told Breitbart News in an interview last week.

“I know members personally who were called by Steve Scalise. So they had the entire leadership whip team frantically making phone calls to members to whip the vote because they wanted to attempt to embarrass Meadows and call the vote [on Wednesday last week] so it’s not hanging over Boehner’s head.

“What they found out was the exact opposite. They found out bad things would happen, that literally they would be calling the vote without knowing what would happen. Therefore, they did not call the vote and now they have this issue hanging over John Boehner’s head for the next five weeks.”

“Oh wait .... he’s a polidiot on the presstitutional sugar tit.””’

He was part of overthrowing/ousting Gingrich. Thou reapest what he has sown.

"Here’s hoping Rep. Meadows doesn’t ease up one bit in trying to oust the Weeping Boner."

LOL! You owe me a new monitor.

[Zenjitsuman]

That must have deflated his BONER, needs to pop a few ED pills. Ain’t it a Cryin Shame.

[Rexie]

Drunk and a crybaby.

I know our politicians were drunks way back when, but how can boner get away with it in the information age? Photos and videos can be taken by caddies and bartenders everywhere. Why don't drunken binges leak out?

[Norm Lenhart]

They told me they don’t care what I have to say. I’m simply following their instructions as to not upset the little dears.

[Slambat]

“Time for boner to step down!!!”

That would be nice but I sure would like to see him slapped
down just to watch el borracho cry like a little girl.

[Joe Boucher]

Yeah,
Mr.crybaby will get right on that.
Worthless is all you can say about boehner, simply worthless.

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Well, don’t cry about it Johnny.

Too late:

A special Thank You to the FReeper who alerted me to the ABP plug-in that allows me to read BREITBART articles without being inundated by the copious advertisements.

[BlueMondaySkipper]

Too bad the good guys are not quite smart enough to lie when asked and say they support Boehner and then vote to oust him once the vote is held. Instead, they tip their hand and he finds out that he might get canned so he refuses to bring it up for a vote. Even the morons on Survivor understand the art of blindsiding your opponent

[Hardens Hollow]

“Him being booted from leadership would be the best news I’ve heard since Republicans took the majority”

I quit the Republican party last year when they reelected Boohoo.

They ran as conservatives, promised to rule that way - and the first thing they did was reelect the same old RINOs. I knew they were going to stab us in the back again.

As long as you’re still willing to rip into them when they push the liberal-republican screed “But if you don’t vote for Jebby Hillary will thank you!”

[hoosiermama]

Time to activate your people and give them the truth. Most people these are well educated and many have dealt with drinkers who don’t believe they have any issues in their own families.

“As long as you’re still willing to rip into them when they push the liberal-republican screed “But if you don’t vote for Jebby Hillary will thank you!””

One of the true joys in life.

[Darksheare]

I’m betting that somewhere in there is an attempt to veil and positive spin Planned Parenthood’s ghoulish activities.
Probably in regards to: “ and change the federal government’s role in biomedical research and funding.” and “Accelerating the discovery, development, and delivery of life-saving cures”

August 2, 2015

The new Congress is getting things done for the American people, and in this week's Republican address, House Republican Conference Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA) ticks off some of the progress made in the first seven months, including:



• The first real entitlement reform in nearly two decades, which is on track to save taxpayers $2.9 trillion;
  
• The first 10-year balanced budget blueprint since 2001; and
  
• New tools to fight human trafficking; improve veterans' care; and advance free trade and American jobs.
  
  She also ticks off some items Congress is working on, saying that “we are just getting started”:
  
  

• Fixing the VA to help veterans get the care they need it when they need it;
  
• Accelerating the discovery, development, and delivery of life-saving cures; and
