Why I am calling the incoming House Speaker "Congressman Drunky McOrangeGlo"

[johnfunk]

I'm doing so because it is completely appropriate. I'm not directly addressing his penchant for turning on the water works but instead the most probable underlying cause. And that perma-tan: can you say, "Gambling with melanoma, golf boy?"

Feel free to discuss amongst yourselves -- or come up with an even more appropriate name.

2. Get Stephanie Miller on the phone!

Since Tom Delay left office, she's needed a substitute for "Drunky McPukeShoes!" Barfy's Bar and Grill has re-opened under new management!

:rofl:

3. Jim Ward is already having a field day with the new Speaker Drunky...

... bet the best is yet to come.

And is it just me, or does this incoming speaker have "multiple forthcoming scandals not limited to his alcoholism... er, alleged alcoholism" painted all over him like spray-tan?

4. K&R it sounds good to me

5. He's the Weeper of the House

6. Buwahahaha! I like that! n/t

8. "Weeper of the House Drunky McOrangeGlo"... I like the way that sounds!

It rolls off the tongue with a poetic beauty that combines the delicacy of William S. Burroughs with the restraint of David Mamet, and has quite the ring of authenticity! Thanks, Happyhippychick!

9. I still like 'Agent Orange'.

10. I like Congressman Drunky. It's simple, plus I found out recently

that the orange hue is Boehner's actual skin color and not spray tan, so it seems a little weird to make fun of his natural color--as odd as it is.

[johnfunk]

11. The orange tan color looks about as natural as Naugahyde

And he does have the 'glow' of a cocktail party lush. Just sayin'...

13. I called him a "psychotic sot" in this video

Spray and wipe away those weepy tears! Heh-heh...

18. Thank you for providing this brief, yet concise explanation.

19. I call him "Weepy McManTan"

[Mz Pip]

Very good. :thumbsup:
