The original orange-man, former House Speaker John Boehner, was definitely a serial pain in our ass after his elevation to the Speaker-ship in wake of the teaparty slimewave election of 2010 (after which, in response to a question about correcting his tri-cornered hats compatriots’ conspiracy fueled Obama Birth Certificate derangements famously said "It's not my job to tell the American people what to think,") was nonetheless a small improvement over his predecessors, serial adulterer Newt Gingrich and serial child molester Dennis Hastert.
In one brief shining moment of sanity in 2013, Boehner extended a tobacco stained middle finger to his own party, joining with House Democrats to pass a funding bill to avert the teaparty’s efforts to shut down the Federal Government.
That’s a short walk down accomplishment lane, but still…
Last month Boehner called with near perfect prescience the all together enjoyable fiasco that was yesterdays attempt to repeal the ACA.
"This is not all that hard to figure out, except this: In the 25 years that I served in the United States Congress, Republicans never, ever one time agreed on what a healthcare proposal should look like. Not once," Boehner said.He said lawmakers were too confident in how easy they thought the process would go."All this happy talk that went on in November and December and January about repeal, repeal, repeal -- yeah we'll do replace, replace -- I started laughing because if you pass repeal without replace, first, anything that happens is your fault. You broke it."Boehner said he warned GOP leaders about repealing Obamacare without a replacement ready because the members "will never ever agree what the bill should be."
I hope you are enjoying the little shit's fail as much as we are, Orange-man.
