BOEHNER-MCCONNELL JOBS PLAN

4. I had to stop the video after the second breakdown. Tell me he didn't get emotional a third time.

Seems like using the phase, American Dream sets him off all the time. Maybe we should use this to our advantage.

5. Remember that old Dana Carvey SNL Poppy Bush "Peration Desert Storm" bit?

Poppy's in front of the cameras and says "Operation Desert Storm" and gets a standing "O." As he continues his speech, every time audience response lags, he says "Operation Desert Storm" again and gets another standing "O," until he just WEARS IT OUT.

Regarding Boehner and the American Dream, I'd just show a clip of him crying about it and run a "crawl" of text over the screen showing the numbers behind the two-year Bush Tax Cuts "compromise" and what they're going to cost our kids and grandkids, asking "Where does this fit into the dream?"

6. LOL about the Carvey bit, and real good idea on the 2% tax cut for the wealthy. n/t

7. Boner is another spoiled brat

I saw the 60 minutes show last night. Interestingly, when the interviewer asked him about how he made a living, he said (only a slight paraphrase): "I did it all on my own. First, I got a job in my dad's bar..."

Lessons for repigs:

1) make sure you have a dad who can employ you
2) start your alcoholic habits early
3) always claim you did it on your own no matter how many handouts you took
