Plans to Oust House Speaker Boehner Are Taking Shape

Following increasing dissatisfaction with House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), staffs of unnamed House members have developed a detailed plan to oust him as the first order of business when the new Congress convenes on Thursday, January 3. Matthew Boyle, writing for Breitbart.com, obtained a copy of the plan with its strategy and tactics laid out in detail. Provided by staffers who demanded anonymity in case the plan backfires, it will be the first issue the House will have to deal with when the Congress returns to Washington.

Initial rumblings of discontent with Boehner’s leadership appeared immediately after his “purge” of four conservatives from the House Budget and Financial Services committees: Justin Amash (R-Mich.), Tim Huelskamp (R-Kan.), Walter Jones (R-N.C.), and David Schweikert (R-Ariz.). A GOP leadership aide told NBC News that they were “clearly not team players,” and had to go. Specifically each of them strongly opposed the Budget Control Act of 2011 which set the stage for the current fiscal cliff confrontations.

That's great, but who are they going to replace him with?

[thoughtomator]

Someone with a clean slate to screw the GOP base with.

Yippee.

This is excellent news!

I might be mis-remembering but weren't all of the republicans carrying on like Boehner was the greatest thing since sliced bread when he became speaker? Seems like there was a lot of noise about in the media.

The real question is there 17 congressmen with the stones to do what is needed.

People who I know who are self-described mainstream GOP, who didn't vote for Ron Paul, keep mentioning to me about Rand Paul and how he is rising. The Dr.'s son, Dr. Rand Paul, is showing strength and popularity. This is the natural consequence of people becoming more involved with politics and who have had the good will to put the microscope over the Federal Government and hold the bureaucrats accountable to the Rule of Law. We as a nation are slipping into authoritativeness and dictatorship, a tyranny, while the rest of the world is either laughing at us or crying over us. If Rand runs for President, his first moneybomb should be EPIC!!!!!!!!!

We should call our Congressmen and tell them to support the ousting of Boehner and that you know many people who feel the same way (Indeed, almost every one you call a friend). Let them be aware that there is a whole community of citizens of this Nation who believe in fairness and justice and liberty.

The last go around, it was the Tea Party.

What will be this cycle's movement towards liberty and the Constitution be? It is time for us as a movement to own it.
