The issue is with Boehner smoking, and Congress exempting itself from healthy workplace standards, not with an individual trying to clean up the resulting mess. (Not that I have any love for Ryan but this one isn't his fault.)

If we don't want taxpayer dollars used stupidly we should vote for better representatives. Any predictions on what voter turnout will be for Tuesday's election? Not that Congress is on the ballot this year, but local reps are important, too.
