John Boehner is still an asshole.
From Salon:
When does scoring by the Congressional Budget Office count, and when should we just ignore those annoying numbers? If you’re John Boehner, the answer is simple: CBO data only matters when it agrees with Republican dogma, and otherwise its nonpartisan analysis cannot possibly be correct.
While there are partisans on both sides who tend to admire or despise the CBO based on its positions of the moment (and feel differently about legislative rules depending on whether they’re in the majority), the House minority leader has compiled a particularly blatant record of flip-flopping lately.
John Boehner is such a lying, scumbag asshole I don’t even know where to start. First of all, his own aid leaked a bullshit “memo” trying to claim the dems have talking points to lie about the healthcare debate:
From HP:
Democrats are charging that the GOP made up a fake messaging memo that purports to be from Democrats as a way to undermine the party’s message at the last minute. The memo was circulated to reporters — including this one — by a spokesman to House Minority Leader John Boehner. Politico reported on the memo and posted a story which the Drudge Report featured prominently.
“The memo is a fake,” said Kristie Greco, a spokesman for Majority Leader James Clyburn (D-S.C.). “It’s an under-handed and unethical attempt to distract from the health care debate. If opponents of health insurance reform had a credible policy alternative they wouldn’t have to resort to nefarious games.”
Beyond that, they guy is the worst kind of criminal politician this country has ever had. I remember him well during the lagging days of Clinton and the early days of Bush, always on Nightline being a prick.
Fuck you, Mr. Boehner. This healthcare proposal will make it through and you will be a dingleberry on the ass of history.

I work in the ad industry. I began as an Art Director, but unlike many I entered the business through the commercial production department instead of the bullpen. I was originally a Production Coordinator on commercials but yearned for more control over the creative reigns. My skills were in organizing productions and video editing, but I had also mastered PageMaker, Photoshop and many other digital programs early in the game just for survival purposes.
Sen. Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, and Maine Sens. Olympia J. Snowe and Susan M. Collins are the reason we have a stimulus bill - and thank God for them. While the National Republican Trust PAC has put them on their “hit” list for serving the country before the GOP, I suspect in the long run these three will outlast the spineless many that have become our Republican representatives.
