Speaker (R) John Boehner: 'Some Of The Dumbest' People In America Are Members Of
Congress
Great
news, America! Some of the dumbest people in the country are leading your
nation, according to Speaker of the House John Boehner.
"We
got some of the smartest people in the country who serve here, and some of the
dumbest. We got some of the best people you'd ever meet, and some of the
raunchiest. We've got 'em all," he said in an interview with the Wall Street Journal.
He
also touted his own achievement in Congress
"There's
nobody who tried harder last year with the president to do the right
thing," he said. "There's nobody who walked further out on a limb
than I did to try to get him to do the right thing."
Boehner's
comments referred to last year's contentious debt talks. The months-long saga resulted in
a bitter struggle between Democrats and Republicans, as well as between Obama
and GOP leaders. Obama once blamed Boehner for the talks falling apart
after the Speaker walked out in the middle of a meeting.
As Politico
reports, Boehner has been facing serious backlash from fellow
Republicans who have recently vowed to kill his massive highway bill.
Way to go Mr Speaker, you are so right, you guys spend most of your time raising money for future campaigns and the rest on vacation. Someone from your office was calling on the President to come back to Washington to go to work. Just for your edification the White House travels with the President but of course you knew or did you? How does it feels residing over a "do nothing congress". You guys should return your checks because you are not working for the Americans people.
