[UPDATE: Wow! Rec list? I'm honored!]
[UPDATE: I'm not actually on the rec list, but why let facts get in the way of a good story?]
I've not seen this diaried yet, so apologies if I missed this. But I am so outraged I can barely type!
You know that tan that John Boehner has? It's costing America $200 million a day! Yes, I knew that such a distinctive orange hue doesn't come cheap. But never in my wildest dreams did I imagine it would be that high -- or that it was being billed directly to the taxpayers!
I know this, because I heard it from this guy. And he said it in ALL CAPS to emphasize how truthy it was. Because if it is in all caps, large fonts, or kreativly spelt, it must be especially truthy!
I also heard something about an India trip, but didn't really pay attention. But the next time someone brings that up, please let them know about John Boehner's $200MM tan. Repeatedly. Even after they beg you to stop.
Because it just might be true. I've not seen a tanning certificate (i.e., receipt), have you?
Finally, on a semi-related note, John Boehner continues to insist his name is pronounced "BAY-ner." It makes no sense, considering that we ALL know how it's REALLY pronounced.
But I've stopped fighting. If he wants to pronounce it "BAY-ner," then fine. I'll just simply start referring to erections as "BAY-ners." Who's with me?
