John Boehner Purging Fiscal Conservatives From Committees

Post by ShotgunBlast »

FreedomWorks and Young Americans for Liberty youth activists dropped by Speaker John Boehner‘s office Tuesday to register their dissapointment over the removal of Representatives Justin Amash, David Schweikert & Tim Huelskamp from their committee assignments. FW & YAL are grassroots conservative and libertarian organizations dedicated to pursuing a course of fiscal responsibility. At the protest, a representative from the Speakers office dodges questions related to the events while armed guards surround them.

Speaker John Boehner has been purging fiscal conservatives from their positions on key committees. Representatives Amash, Huelskamp & Schweikert have been serving their constituents desires to limit government and FreedomWorks & YAL activists stopped by Boehners office to register complaints over their ouster. In this video, a representative from the Speakers office refused answer our questions over why the Tea Party leaders in the House are being persecuted by the leadership.
So is this the part where we say "we gotta hold these people's feet to the fire" or "the Republicans and Democrats truly are two sides to the same coin"?

Time to write to your Republican congressman if you have one, and urge him to vote for a different speaker. You cannot have a traitor leading your movement.

Indeed. Cantor isn't my congressman, but I'm sure this is the ammo he's been waiting for to make a move. I know he's been eyeing that position for awhile now.

I can't see how this will matter all that much. We all know that boo-hoo Boehner will fold like a cheap suit.

I am so tired of these guys....just makes me sick. Republicans eating their own. Boner does not serve his party well at all. It is almost like they are trying to split the party.....how do these idiots think that will end.

Cantor isn't much better! I cannot stand him either!

I'm screwed. Period. By my Federal Representation without a kiss, or lube.

But with Boehner crying all the time, I guess he thinks tears make the best lube.
