A different take on Boehner....
Think his actions are "mickey mouse"? You may be closer than you think. Recall the little rat's action in the "Sorcerer's Apprentice" segment of Disney's Fantasia...

An inexperienced youth (Boehner) is being taught by a great wizard (Carl Rove) to use magic (politics) to reach his ends. While the wizard is busy elsewhere, the apprentice decides to use this power to his personal advantage to avoid hard work. He conjures a broom (Tool/tea partier) to do his bidding, but when he finds the task has been accomplished he is unable to stop the broom and his attempts to stop it actually causes it to multiply and cause him ever increasing difficulty.

In the movie, of course, the old wizard returns to save the foolish apprentice from his folly. But in real life I believe John Boehner is fucked.

1. I agree. This poor orange drunk is in way over his head and I predict
that his term as Speaker is going to be a disaster for him. Cue the tears. :cry:
