1. These people have no concept of the serf's of society and their struggles

Nor, most of all, these so-called leaders could give a crap less...

[SoapBox]

2. Boner...

What an arrogant asshole.

[KansDem]

3. I'd like to know who's using these gyms

I wonder if my "Rep" might be one of them!

[kurosagi]

18. FOIA?

I wonder if the gyms have a sign in sheet that could be seen through a Freedom of Information Act request. I bet half the Republicans and possibly a few DINOs are chilling, smug in the sauna.

4. Must not inconvenience a handful of millionaires that are inconveniencing millions...

...and killing tens of thousands.

[Kablooie]

5. Shutdown? What shutdown? I don't see no stinking shutdown!

[ctsnowman]

6. The tea party

must have made him do it.

[ffr]

7. Great way to share the pain.

Start the voter registration drives and get the GOTV machine going so we don't have to deal with this insanity and governance by selfishness after next year.

[Iliyah]

8. Another one that should go viral

As we know corporation media won't harp on it.

[Alkene]

9. Boner doesn't strike me as health conscious, despite his 'tan',

but the sauna and steam room might be useful in sweatin' out the previous day's excesses.

I apologize for any unpleasant imagery that suggestion may have evoked.

10. A news media worth a plug nickle would be reporting live from that gym.

The Daily Show will do it green screen style at least, I hope....

[blkmusclmachine]

11. The GOPee: America's Terror Organization.

And the DC DEMS still treat them like equals operating in good faith.

[Pachamama]

12. Disgusting

[kentauros]

13. Someone should rig the flatscreen TVs

so that they only play loops of Rachel Maddow berating them the whole time. No OFF buttons, and no Mute buttons

[LongTomH]

14. Wonkette is weighing in on this with their usual biting commentary

John Boehner Declares Congressional Gym Essential, Head Start Not So Much:

While Republicans hold pretty much the entire U.S. of America hostage until the Usurper-in-Chief agrees to defund himself back to Kenya and stop personally paying to keep that Museum o’ Muslims open with all that money he made from his autobiography written by Bill Ayers, we have an excellent opportunity to find out exactly what is and is not essential to keeping us USA! USA! No. 1!!!!!. Like, cancer treatment for The ChildrenTM? Nope, not essential. Head Start, the program that educamacates those same The Children? Also nope. The members-only congressional gym where you can imagine — if you are a masochist — Paul Ryan P90Xing to Stairway while Rep. Virginia Foxxxxxxxx gets her squats on? Why yes.

[progressoid]

15. This is going on facebook.

I dont usually post political things but this is too good to pass up.

[graywarrior]

16. Gotta keep that liver alive!

[formercia]

17. The Sauna is where a lot of deals are made

Microphones don't fare well in that environment.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

19. goddammit I hate him and all his little friends.

If only people KNEW ...well, the people who most need to know have cut themselves off from anything that theeatens the indoctrination.

[TBF]

20. Typical ... nt

[ConcernedCanuk]

21. Looking at the members of Congress

.
.
.

I'd say the flat screen TV gets most of their attention.

Hard heads they got, hard bodies?

I think not.

[Cha]

22. Sick lying fuck.

[lonestarnot]

23. I hope he gets his nut-sack hung in the treadmill

[bucolic_frolic]

24. GOP trying to make Boehner the Shadow President

This bozo is 4th in line? Frightening.
