His face is the color of shoe leather. Maybe it's the light but Biden looks like he usually does; Boehner has the darkest face in the room.

He's leaning over to his left and is several inches lower than Biden. He reminds me of the high school guys who sit in the back of the class and act like they've turned off the teacher.
