Boehner: House Speaker Calls Presidential Candidate Ted Cruz 'Jackass



House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) apparently isn’t the biggest fan of Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), making that abundantly clear during a fundraising event for Rep. Scott Tipton (R-CO) on Wednesday evening.

According to a report by Alex Pappas of The Daily Caller, Boehner spoke candidly about the Texas Senator, saying he’s happy Cruz’s presidential aspirations have kept “that jacka**” out of Washington.

like a 12 yr old child.

Boehner knows this, even though Boehner is himself a borderline moron as well.

Teaparty is children in adult bodies.
