That's ALL it ever is for these Pieces Of Shit. He wants to sell books.

He's still a worthless repub.

Back in 1998, he was all for impeaching Clinton. In his book, he says that was a mistake.

Back in 2009, he demonized Obamacare. In his book, he says that was a mistake.

... so he is rehabbing his image, of course to make oodles and oodles of money! Perhaps he has laid off the alcohol and found Happy Herb!

"In April, Acreage Holdings said it planned to sell itself to Canada's Canopy Growth — the world's largest cannabis company. The deal is expected to create an $18 billion organization, according to an analysis by the Times. Boehner holds 625,000 shares in the company and stands to make millions through the sale."

I am sorry, I can't help but thinking of a strain named after him... and so what if they mispronounce his last name when coming up with the name.

There is a mathematical relation describing the angle of the Boehner, but I do not believe it to be appropriate for this website.

Of attacking Democrats. I told my husband I might want to read that book but the statement he said pissed me off so much I remembered why I disliked him. And wouldn’t be buying any book written by him. Same POS as he always was and is.

So he hopes you will buy his book and pay for that scotch.

He is a drunk and a fool.
