The NO VOTES: 22 GOPers Who BALKED Boehner
:smoke: :smoke: :smoke:



Speaker John Boehner pushed his debt-ceiling bill through the House Friday night with the support of 218 Republicans.



Here are the 22 no votes:



Justin Amash (Mich.)

Michele Bachmann (Minn.)

Chip Cravaack (Minn.)

Jason Chaffetz (Utah)

Scott Desjarlais (Tenn.)

Tom Graves (Ga.)

Tim Huelskamp (Kans.)

Steve King (Iowa)

Tim Johnson (Ill.)

Tom McClintock (Calif.)

Mick Mulvaney (S.C.)

Ron Paul (Texas)

Connie Mack (Fla.)

Jim Jordan (Ohio)

Tim Scott (S.C.)

Paul Broun (Ga.)

Tom Latham (Iowa)

Jeff Duncan (S.C.)

Trey Gowdy (S.C.)

Steve Southerland (Fla.)

Joe Walsh (Ill.)

Joe Wilson (S.C.)



CORRECTED: Rep. Tom Price (R-Ga.) voted YES on the Boehner bill. That was incorrect in the initial list. Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) has been added to the list.

3. Bachmann has vowed to not increase the debt ceiling. Period.
What can I say, she's fucking nuts.

4. She didn't think it was extreme enough.
That's her twisted mindset.

8. If only....
The four recently-elected nutbags, including my so-called "representative" all voted against it because it wasn't extreme enough. I really wish I could find a way out of this fucking hell hole.

2. They come from nutter districts, don't they?
Once the pass number is attained, they always let people go who have district problems. And Bachmann, of course, can't flip flop as a presidential contender.

9. Jim Jordan's district is right next to Boehner's
and is gerrymandered right down the middle of some towns. That'll make for some interesting chit-chat among the neighbors.
