Can We Get Rid of John Boehner? Please!

I got this email from Ken Cuccinelli today. Wouldn't be wonderful to get rid of that political crybaby wimp John Boehner. I'm embarrassed that the man calls himself a Catholic. His politics have always seemed to be his first priority. If he had to choose between a seat in Congress and a seat in heaven, I'm not sure he'd put Almighty God above the Almighty Republican Congressional caucus. I just called my representative in Congress, Bob Goodlatte. I hope you'll call yours!

My Fellow Virginians,

An amazing thing happened yesterday, although it hasn’t gotten much attention… yet!

Yesterday, North Carolina Congressman Mark Meadows courageously submitted a “Motion to Vacate the Chair.”  The “Chair” in this case is Speaker Boehner.  If successful, Congressman Meadows’ motion would remove Congressman Boehner as Speaker of the House, and allow for a vote on a new Speaker.

Maybe America can actually get a principled leader at the helm of the House?!  What a change that would be!  And what a step forward for America!

What Exactly Is It?

The Motion to Vacate the Chair is a privileged motion.  This means that – if Cong. Meadows forces it forward – it cannot be blocked by the Speaker or his leadership team using procedural tactics or the Rules Committee.  They will have to have a vote of the entire House of Representatives.
