What the Fuck Is Wrong With Boehner?

As speaker Boehner could bring a bill to the floor for a vote, let it be voted on open government. And in my thinking if I was Boehner, I'd do that and then resign. I would think "I don't need this shit" "You want my job, fuck you, you can have it." Then he could get a nice little pension, be a semi hero, write a book for a shit load of money and make a pile on giving inane speeches. To me it would be a lot better than putting up with the shit he's putting up with. Go out in style, live in style and maybe not descend into the throes alcoholism, which is what I am afraid he is getting to.

I can not imagine what it must be like to try to herd that many egotistical anarchists.

If I was the speaker the picture on TV would be me being carried around with an IV of morphine in one arm and a bottle of Crown in the other hand. And then to worry about one of the anarchists trying to put a bullet in my head.

Being the token sane person is probably driving him crazy, knowing he has no power in anything.

He seems to have reached his level of incompetence and his alcohol problem doesn't help. Frankly, I'm dismayed with the lack of leadership all around from those who hold the most power in Washington.
