I should know better than to watch political programs while at the gym. This morning, while watching Ohio Congressman John Boehner being interviewed by George Stephanopoulos on “This Week,” I caught myself saying, “You’re an asshole,” to the television. Of course, given where the television was in relation to my exercise bike, I was staring right at the woman next to be when I said it. And, as I had earphones in, I know I said it loudly… And Boehner is an asshole. If you don’t believe me, just watch this clip. I defy you to watch it without blurting something out.
Is this really the best the Republicans can do? Do they really not have a single constructive idea to contribute? It’s pathetic.

When I taught adult ed government classes, I had them memorize the names of Congressional leaders and the Supreme Court. Whenever I wrote this ass munch’s name on the board, most of the students thought the last name was pronounced “Boner” and just were tickled. Then when I taught more about him, his name just stayed “Boner”, they remembered the name for the test and everyone went home happy.
Unlike him, boners actually serve a constructive purpose.
The Republican party needs to implode and be replaced by something else.
That’s the closest to sober I’ve ever seen that guy.
Translation: “I fully intend to begin to discuss the possibility of maybe doing something about small parts of what might be considered a problem to some people perhaps. Now we just have to figure out how to keep cows from farting.”
