OUR CONGRESS in a soundbite.
“Go f*** yourself.” – Speaker of the House John Boehner
It came upon Speaker Boehner entering the White House, where Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell were sitting on a sofa.
The f-bomb was directed at Reid, who recently labeled Boehner’s leadership a “dictatorship.”
I’d like to see Harry deal with the Tea Party caucus. Walk a mile in Speaker Boehner’s shoes, Mr. Reid. Harry would have blown a gasket a long time ago.
Classy. Gotta hand him that. But what can you expect?
Well, to be fair, I am no fan of Reid and I found is use of the D word way off the mark. Boehner has no control over his caucus in the House, so not only was the original name-calling childish, it was not even accurate.
So I give Boehner a pass on this one, because little Harry started it. Good for John. Harry had it coming.
