Is Boehner married? Everyone was shown with their wife, kids
but not a Mrs. Boehner. Was she there? Does she care? I just wanted to catch a glimpse of the poor soul..

2. Face it, if you were married to that guy...
...would you admit it, much less want to be seen with him???

3. I think having a pale faced wife next to him
emphasizes his Ommpa-ness too much so she's been hiding for the last decade.

13. Actually, she's so blue, the contrast with his orange-ness messes up the cameras. n/t

4. It's OK if he's a lazy drunk who only cares about tanning and golfing
He's a Republican with a free pass.

5. His wife was with him at the Obama inauguration
I really don't know if he has children or not. I don't blame her for keeping her distance from him, have heard a lot of rumors about his morals. They don't seem to be too close a couple.

9. She's as orange as he is, evidently...
From Wikipedia:

Boehner and his wife Debbie were married in 1973. They live in the Wetherington section of West Chester Township. They have two daughters, Lindsay and Tricia.
Boehner enjoys golfing and has a "taste for parties and fine wines",

GIS turns up this photo of a Debbie Boehner, real estate agent in West Chester.

17. Maybe she should sell her pearls...

19. Crime? It's not.
Something not being a crime doesn't make it morally acceptable.

Of course, this is just my opinion. It's a free country (at least in theory) and people can do what they want, but neither do I have to keep my mouth shut.

21. Spending your own hard-earned money isn't morally acceptable?
Please elaborate.

22. Why?
It's pretty clear there'd be no point in elaborating.

Different people have a different ethical compass. This is mine, and that's all there is to it.

12. Oh, certainly he must be married.
Singles are suspect, and the childless even more so. It's just not respectable among decent Murkins.
