Is John Boehner no longer orange?

I've been getting a lot of pictures of Boehner in the last few weeks, and he's nowhere near as unnatural-colored as he used to be.

seriously, I have been noticing that color change over the past few months. I am guessing he is really drinking heavy these days. His pallid skin makes me wonder.

I should just trash threads like this but I can't. Is the content of Boehner's character not enough of a target rich environment for you? Please tell me what it is about another person's skin color that is so foreign to you that it feels perfectly allright for you to discuss it on a forum, because I do not understand that.

Signed, another orange person from southern Ohio.

The prevailing theory is he was into cheap self-tanner, or cheap spray tans, that turned his skin orange. Whatever it was, he was seriously orange, and now he's not.
