the CORRECT pronounciation of "boehner" is "BONER"
i don't give a RAT'S ASS how HE pronounces it.

if the banana republicans refuse to get the democrat/democratic thing right, then why the hell should we defer to them when it comes to pronounciation?

1. And I think our representatives...
should call him "Boner" and then snicker every time they refer to him. And if anyone complains...remind them how often we get refered to as the "Democrat" party instead of DemocratIC.

6. In German it's closest to "Bayner"
Not that I have any intention to pronounce it that way!

9. That's the way they pronounced it on NPR
I guess if they said it the correct way, more money will be slashed from CPB.

12. Umlaut . . .
'oe' would be pronounced my making your mouth as if to say O but say A.

But I'll say Boner just to irritate the righties. :)

15. I used to know someone named Boehs...
and he pronounced it "Bays", but ya know..."Boner" does have a pretty nice ring to it when coupled with Bush or Dick. :shrug:

22. BONER it is! What's Blunt gonna do about that Boner?
Edited on Thu Feb-02-06 05:44 PM by in_cog_ni_to
Does Boner ever "leak"....information?

Was Boner's erection, err...election fixed?

Boner's one STIFF dude!

Wasn't Boner ejaculated, errr...ejected from the House once?

Is that a Boner in your Congress or are you just happy to see me?

30. Every time I see that name, I think of Jon Stewart

Never mind. You had to be there...

33. someone told me Boener looks like Cary Grant,.i don't see it at all.Blunt
looks very Claude Akins-esque,though.Except I'm sure Claude Akins is taller than a broom.When they told Blunt he lost he was very surprised.you could tell because his eyebrows were on top of his head.

34. I think Democrats should just start calling him "Boner" anyway.
Sort of like the way they call us the "Democrat party".
