John Hinderaker<\/a> reported this morning at Power Line<\/a> that Louis Gohmert<\/a> has announced that he will challenge John Boehner<\/a> for Speaker of the House<\/a>. I have no idea if Representative Gohmert can defeat Speaker Boehner, but I sure hope he does.<\/p>\n

The article quotes Representative Gohmert:<\/p>\n

You deceived us when you went to Obama<\/a> and Pelosi<\/a> to get your votes for the cromnibus. You said you\u2019d fight amnesty tooth and nail. You didn\u2019t, you funded it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2010, Boehner and other leaders said if you put us in the majority, we will have time to read the bills. That hasn\u2019t happened. We saw that with the cromnibus, again.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We\u2019ll get back to appropriating and we will go through regular committee process, so every representative from both parties will have a chance to participate in the process and not have a dictator running things.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The House of Representatives<\/a> is the legislative body that is supposed to represent the will of the people–all representatives have to run for election every two years. Unfortunately, in recent years, the House of Representatives has simply reflected the sort of autocratic rule that our President has exemplified. The voice of the American<\/a> people has somehow been lost in the shuffle in Washington<\/a>.The Republicans have been the majority in the House for a few years now, with John Boehner as Speaker. There have been no visible change from the time that Nancy Pelosi was in charge. It is time for a change in leadership.<\/p>\n
