Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) visited Breitbart News Sunday to discuss why he initiated a “motion to vacate the chair” aimed to oust Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) as the GOP leader in the House of Representatives.
Meadows filed the request at the end of July to prompt a “family conversation” within the GOP on the future of the House leadership. “It’s really more about trying to have a conversation on making this place work, where everybody’s voice matters, where there’s not a punitive culture,” he said before congress broke for recess in August.
In the last 105 years, only once has such a maneuver been attempted. If he is successful in forcing the election of a new speaker it would be the first time in U.S. history.
Earlier in the year, the congressman, who Breitbart News Executive Chairman Stephen K. Bannon referred to as “one of the most courageous men in the House of Representatives and an American hero,” was at the center of a House squabble. GOP leadership stripped Meadows of an Oversight and Government Reform subcommittee chairmanship when he voted against the rule that allowed for consideration of President Obama’s request for fast-track authority (TPA) to negotiate the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP). Meadows regained his post as chairman after fellow conservatives expressed outrage, but ill feelings remain.
Meadows told Bannon, who hosts Breitbart News Sunday airing on Sirius XM Patriot radio, channel 125, at 7 pm ET, “ We need a change in Washington D.C., regardless of party. Most Americans know that the way business is being done is broken and we have got to change that. And I appreciate Breitbart for addressing the topic.”

You have an illness.
It’s an elliptical construction with the implied gerund “having” preceding both the phrase “the people [sic] at My Back” and “DC in My Pocket”, and thus the singular verb “is” is correct.
Stick to harassing blog pimps.
You don't actually know who butchered it do you?
Crawl back under your rock troll, people are getting really tired of your failed attempts at any relevance here.
Your petty and juvenile BS doesn't help the true purpose of Free Republic, Dumb-ass.
Nobody asked you, pop.
And nobody asks for your dumb-ass, juvenile comments either crackpot, in fact a lot of FReepers tell you to get loss on threads.
Do Free Republic a big favor and take the hint, deadbeat loser.
Your repetitious crap is getting old and tiresome.
You're the embodiment of a one trick pony, all hat/no cattle, little big man and obnoxious Internet barfly.
Oh, my.. such language!
I’m deeply hurt.
