Garlic Aficianados Slam John Boehner For Insulting “Garlic Milkshake”


Uh oh. John Boehner has really committed a stinker this time.

Boehner today made a derogatory reference to garlic while criticizing the public option — and now organizers of the nation’s pre-eminent garlic festival, which is beloved by hundreds of thousands, are sizzling mad.

Boehner, speaking to reporters this afternoon, joked that the public option is “about as unpopular as a garlic milkshake.” Pressed by an intrepid reporter, who asked whether garlic milkshake is healthy, Boehner dug himself in deeper: “I don’t know. I haven’t tried it.”

That claim has now drawn a sharp rebuke from Brian Bowe, the executive director of the Gilroy Garlic Festival, an annual garlic celebration in Northern California that draws hundreds of thousands of people each year and donates proceeds to charity.

“I would invite him to our festival and would urge him to try the garlic ice cream,” Bowe, er, sniffed. “It’s the longest line of people at the festival every year. Everyone loves it.”

Bowe squashed Boehner’s doubts about garlic’s attributes as defly as a chef removing the skin from a clove. “That’s off base,” he told me. “Garlic is one of the healthiest herbs out there. It does wonders for the body and that’s proven. Whether it’s in a milk shake or not, you can’t go wrong with garlic.”

Developing…

garlic ice cream. Stinking rose.

I love the Gilroy Garlic Festival. And it's HUGE.

He admitted today he doesn't hear anything outside the narrow chamber of his tightly closed mind.

:applause:

...because being a prick is enough. Being named after one is just redundant.

I just got my bulbs in the mail todays. Nothing better than fresh garlic. Remind me to send some to Boehner the boner.

But how does it affect Boehner, who talks out of his ass?

Each winter I mash up cloves of garlic and swallow each day to fend off nasty germs. I used to get really nasty colds and bronchitis, but haven't gotten but a couple of mild head colds the past few years.

Anyway, the smell of garlic seeps from every pore...and yes...even from the "back door"

Sometimes I can't stand my own stink.

But...


you just never know.
