Did anyone see John Boehner at the tea party today? He

[Thrill]

Pulls out some paper and says "This is my copy of the Constitution, and let me read some of it to you"

And then he proceeds to read the Declaration of Independence? Are you kidding me? How does the media let him get away with that? The idiot doesn't even know the difference between the constitution and the Declaration of Independence? And no one calls him on it.

Surprised no one has video up of this

1. I'm not surprised...

But I'll bet Stewart or Colbert will give it it's due..:evilgrin:

[seemunkee]

2. Olberman called him on it

[Berry Cool]

3. KO mentioned it on his show. Someone will post it.

I just want to go on record to say: I am from Ohio, and I do know the difference between the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Our public schools are not that bad.

Maybe there is a direct connection between overuse of bronzer and memory loss.

5. There's that..it could be

seeping in through his epidermis and messing with cognitive ability.

15. Actually he went to Catholic schools

and a Catholic university. So the public system is free of any Boehner taint!

[Cha]

4. NFW!

I know they don't have much going for them in the way of a developed frontal lobe but I thought he could at least tell the difference between the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.

The corporatemediaWhores are worse than useless..they're Public Enemy Number ONE.

10. Not at all surprised. Typical GOP idiot.

[Clio the Leo]

11. And he looked uncomfortable standing there.....

.... I would imagine he was there because of the political necessity of it all. He couldn't afford to not be.

13. well...

there goes another failed sobriety test.

14. What many of us dont recognize yet is that "they" do not care about accuracy, truth or fairness.

They are willfully ignorant hypocrites.

16. He couldn't exactly read the preamble of the Constitution

which is the foundation of Social Security and Medicare....

(Rachel blew it on that bit- claiming there is no preamble to the Constitution- oops).

My favorite was the idiot from Missouri who went on about how liberal hate the Pledge- then went on recite it- EMPHASIZING under God- and then stuttered...err... and could finish it!

(Those "indivisible," and "justice for all" bits probably caused psychological consternation). Call it a Freudian omission.
