He nearly lost his speakership earlier in the year after more constitutional congressmen stepped forward to challenge his position. However, due to poor organization and lack of a unified front, Boehner managed to squeak by to retain his role.<\/p>\n<p>Congressman Paul Ryan (58 percent Freedom Index score) said he was taken by surprise by the decision and that he would not seek the role of House Speaker.<\/p>\n<p>So far, Daniel Webster (62 percent Freedom Index score) has stepped forward to say he is interested in the role and so has Kevin McCarthy (63 percent Freedom Index score).<\/p>\n<p>Based on these scores, we have to wonder what difference it will make to have another Speaker who is faithful to the Constitution just a little more than half the time.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, it&#8217;s business as usual with Boehner. He has already declared that the government will not be shut down during this week&#8217;s fight to pass a continuing budget resolution to temporarily fund the federal government at present levels, without any changing in the funding of Planned Parenthood.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/click.icptrack.com\/icp\/relay.php?r=51920698&amp;msgid=448944&amp;act=L2HM&amp;c=783829&amp;destination=http%3A%2F%2Fconservativeintel.com%2F2015%2F09%2F25%2Fboehner-exit-paves-way-planned-parenthood-funding-bush-advocacy%2F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">At least one conservative website<\/a> is also suggesting that Boehner will want to get the Export\/Import Bank reauthorized, a hard won fight by the grassroots.
