Mullin in Boehner’s Pocket Already?

[Bob Russell]

 

Newly elected Rep. Markwayne Mullin (R-Ok 2) was on KFAQ radio’s Pat Campbell Show on Tuesday Jan. 8 to “explain” his vote for John Boehner as Speaker of the House of Representatives (http://www.1170kfaq.com/podcasts/patcampbell/186021332.html). His explanation of why he voted for Boehner seems to be “business as usual” in Congress.  I thought we sent him there to oppose the business as usual mindset.  One explanation he gives is that he was told at the freshman orientation that he could only vote for someone who was nominated, and naturally Boehner was the only one nominated.  His other position is that not voting for Boehner is the same as voting for Pelosi.  That is the same lame crap we heard from the Republican establishment in the 2012 general election (not voting for Romney is voting for Obama).  It didn’t take him long to cabbage onto the establishment lingo did it?
