My representative Tim. Huelskamp was one of the brave souls who didn’t vote for Boehner. We need more people like these guys in power. Not to bring gender into the discussion but where are the women representatives on this list?

I call these guys brave because Boehner will strip Florida Reps. Daniel Webster and Richard Nugent of their prestigious spots on the House Rules Committee. These are the other guys who ran against Boehner. I guess Boehner doesn’t like competition. Instead of uniting the party Boehner does this. A real class act. Another example of power corrupting.

One other thing. Representative Brian Babin from Texas voted present. Coward. Couldn’t even vote for or against.  That’s exactly what Obama did when he was in Congress.
