Will Boehner’s be the shortest Speakership ever?

[DainBramaged]

The New York Times passed on the story (if there ever was one; Page 6 of the New York Post isn’t known as the beginning and end of truth), but evidently Boehner hasn’t been successful in making the story go away. I was recently contacted by a reporter from the National Enquirer, and now I have confirmation that their story will hit the newsstands on Thursday.

Wonder how well Boehner’s zero-tolerance pledge regarding corruption will hold up when it comes out that several hundred paper-making jobs were lost in his district and he refused to do anything about it at the same time he was sleeping with a lobbyist for the printing industry that was very happy to get their cheap paper from China.

Gotta give it to Lyons though! She’s one hell of a lobbyist!

Just remembered that Rep. Bonner, just yesterday, trashed the National Enquirer when asked about the ethics process. I don’t believe in accidents.

Rep. Jo Bonner (R-AL) told a reporter for a newspaper in his home state that political realities kept House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) from shutting down the independent Office of Congressional Ethics, which he said would begin an investigation “out of the National Enquirer.”

1. If this turns out to be a true story, can you imagine the tears?

The not-so-nice part of me is grinning.

2. Tears of a clown

Rivers of snot. He'll probably get the huh-uh-uh-uh crying shudders. It'll be EPIC.

And at that moment, if any congress(wo)man says to him, "Dry it up or I'll give you something to cry about!", s/he'd get the fattest campaign donation I could muster.

I think that after Cantor, the candidates get rapidly worse, too...Hard to believe, isn't it?

10. The National Enquirer seems to get an awful lot right.

And the GOP loved it when they were covering John Edwards.

16. Judging by the size of that novelty gavel

I'd say "yes"!

[RamboLiberal]

17. I'm not going to get too excited about National Enquirer

Yeah they caught Edwards, but their Todd Palin affair so far has been a bust.
