The Honorable John Boehner ????
There is absolutely nothing honorable about John Boehner.
There is absolutely nothing honorable about the MAJORITY of DC politicians.
They are some of the most vile people on this earth.
They work for us.
Our tax dollars pay for their salaries, health insurance and endless perks.
They do not deserve our respect.
They have not earned our respect.
