(14,558 posts)You would THINK that people BOTH took offense to that bullshit AND EVEN MORE SO took notice to these assclowns not doing their job and punished him personally and his party in general.
Sadly, past the greater portion of people who simply aren't giving a shit, far too many people actually think like this themselves.

Of course he does virtually nothing in the House, but vote on the "repeal health care" bill over, and over, and over...

(9,214 posts)There is no longer a need and in fact it is a deterrent that they work in Washington. It would cut down on the amount of time lobbyists can influence them and the people in the home district can see when they are at work and who they are having appointments with. They only need to meet in Washington once or twice a year for ceremonial stuff. Too much money is spent on transportation and housing for these useless bags of excrement. The savings could be substantial and the people in their districts need to see just how much they actually work for them.
One other option is to cut them back to what they really work which is part time, with an appropriate wage adjustment.

Let the constituency see the true person they hired to represent them and watch their retention rate drop into the cellar along with their approval ratings.

I asked her if I could build on of John Boehner. we could us a pumpkin as the head.

(4,033 posts)They figure their real job is campaignin' so's they can get reelected so they can keep on passing the Koch Agenda and that don't take no time a'tall. Just a couple of votes, then back on the campaign trail. Oh, an before they hi'tail it outta Washington, senators gotta file a couple of filibuster notices for anything that Obama ever even thought might be good for the country.

(3,426 posts)are called to attention in public domain. His father you see was a bar tender. When an alcoholic
is trapped in alcoholic denial ,it is a sad state of affairs to witness.But it is the bar tender and the proprietor of the establishment;s denial that alcoholism is a disease and further claim it is just a choice to drink or not to drink.
So, denial as their crutch they will stand to the opinion that as a matter of choice it is their own damn fault they are the way they are and are in the situation or category they are trapped within.
And so the bottom line is all about profit and gratuities.
If you think Boehner is on vacation ,think again.
At the end of the day the bar tender adds it all up in the till and marks it all down. so the bar tender took in a good amount for the proprietor is paid a wage and lines his or her pockets with the gratuities laughing all the way to the bank.
The bottom line is this, you don't have to drink alcohol to be an alcoholic .Boehner was born over the legal limit. His vacation home is in the bar where all the business is conducted.and that is just where he goes to work.
Profit and gratuities is what he works for. As far as the patrons go, it just doesn't matter how drunk you get or are,just so long as you have a job.Those that don't,are on the outs and should just stay there or stay out.and you can bet that point of view was drilled into Boehner very early on.
Boehner's constituency loosely connected as it may be. Either in with it,or in the outs .
It a fairly simple equation really, although it's roots run deep through historical passages.
So yea, it was a crappy thing to say-and in fact it stinks, but what would you expect form his type ? Boehner is what he is and he was born that way.And as a matter of choice he will not change the way he thinks or is.

(5,275 posts)I'm sure he doesn't get his hypocrisy, and the fact there are still some wingnuts who think Colbert is on their side, show that in large part wingnuts aren't in reality the sharpest tools in the shed - and are iron-y deficient.

(165 posts)This old man, doesn't understand those unemployed. He is screwing the voters and those who elected him by collecting a paycheck and doing nothing. He is the typical freeloader if there is an example. When will the voters wise up and defeat this drunk. He is just laughing at the people thinking how foolish and dumb the voters are that elect him. All he does is blame Obama for doing work, while he stands in front of cameras and mics and does nothing.
I think Boehner is the real ISIS and one the people need to be afraid of. He lied to his voters election after election. Wise up voters.
