2. Next election.
Choice and diversity may be separate concepts but in our electoral process they are inseparable.So what if the republicans go down in flames in the next election. We are seeing rather clearly what it means when the two parties look essentially the same.

6. Pretty hard to convince me that the Party of the Big f***ing Deal
is the same as the Party of "I apologize."

4. what is WRONG with Boehner?
seems like he's lobotomized or under the influence of something?

He doesn't seem to be able to put 2 sentences together....he seems totally out of it.

:shrug:

8. He was probably stopping by after a few drinks in his after-five bar-hopping
and was a bit blitzed.

Love how Rachel exposes him for the ignorant asshole he is.

13. I was thinking: "Have another drinkypoo, John."

It's not the 1st time he's seemed tipsy.


Maybe it's a reaction to all that orange #3 in his bronzer.

19. It is like he has to say things the teabaggers would like but he doesn't want to go that far.
It is certainly like he is under some sort of duress.

22. He was a bit more animated in part 2, if you watched the You Tube link . .
The part where he talked about cutting his own grass, washing & ironing his own shirts . . .

He was sparkling with energy then . . . (WTF?)

5. Boeshner looks drunk---or semi-sedated. A bit drugged up.
He doesn't seem sober.

9. You DID see the thread about morning Joke Scarborough accusing Boehner of
spending time after 5 PM bar-hopping around DC, didn't you?

12. Absolutely
Edited on Wed Jun-30-10 04:20 PM by marions ghost
he's in bad shape.

As he should be. If I were screwing the entire country over, I'd drink too.

15. Is there a video of Boner's performance somewhere on the net?
I could really, really put it to good use on some other message boards I frequent. *evil laugh*

Hey professor,

Did you ever do it with a pipe wrench in the conservatory?

(Had to ask.)

17. He was drinking heavily before the interview
Slow speech, uncertain grasp of sentences, confusion? Standard lush symptoms. Plus his eyes have numerous rings around them. Probably had a hangover and a recent tail of the dog that bit him.

Look for a full self destruct mode happening in the weeks/days to come.

Watch for it and remember where you heard this from first...

21. I will watch for that
As much as I have sympathy for anyone fighting alcoholism, it couldn't happen to a better guy.

Here's somebody doing serious 'Boehner booze watch' ---

23. The ignorance of republicans is simply astounding.
I'm amazed they can find their way to work every day.
