How Boehner Gets His Tan: His PAC Spent $83K On Golf Outings!
Mika and Joe have a great time bashing John Boehner after finding out the House minority leader's PAC spent almost $83K on golf outings.
Scarborough compared him to Evita Perón, who would show poor people her jewels so they would have something to aspire to. "Think about the people in his district who are out of work right," he said. "Thirty thousand dollars on one golf outing!" He noted that was more than most of the people in Boehner's district make in a year.
"Howard, you wouldn't do that, would you?" Mika asked Howard Dean.
"I don't play golf," Dean replies. (See why I love him?) He said it was difficult for Republicans to hold themselves up as the model for fiscal responsibility when they spent money on things like this.
A viewer wrote in to say Boehner's tan "was proof that global warming is real."
I don't think Boehner's "tans" come from the sun. They come from a cosmetics counter.
Notice how that douchebag Scarborough tries to slam the Dems by saying they can get away with the whole big spending meme? What he's not telling you is that the economy has ALWAYS done better under Democrats?
If you're not rich and still a Republican, you are simply a stupid mother fucker.
Wow. The ego between "Morning" Joe and his lady. Howard Dean, and others, are just ignored for most of that clip.
The name is Evita Peron not Person. Natural enough typo.

Oh, the humanity.

$30,000 dollars for a game of golf. What, does this piece of shit think he's Tiger Woods...Not even in a nightmare. Wasteful! His synthetic orange discoloration is a skin reaction to his pills and booze and consistant crap. Women say he's no good in bed, other than for the money?
That was entertaining, except that Dean goes way too easy on the GOP when he says "it's [meaning their lavish personal lifestyles/lobbying/fundraising junkets] why they don't get traction on a core Republican issue, which is fiscal responsibility and all that stuff." No, the reason why the GOP doesn't get traction on their "issue" (really, their talking point) of "fiscal responsibility" is because they don't practice fiscal responsibility when governing. One only need to look at the GOP-controlled Congress under GOP President George W. Bush from the beginning of 2001 to the beginning of 2007, when, even in the words of GOP Senator John McCain, they "spent like a drunken sailor."
Just wondering......does this get into the papers and get local media coverage in his district? Or are they intimidated? Or are they like most people who don't really care?

This will get as much traction in Ohio and in Boehner's district as my senator's golfing habit and expenditures on golf got in GA. When an article came out in the local paper detailing how much Suxby Chambliss spent on golfing to raise money for his campaign fund, the majority of the posters felt it was justified. IOKIYAR is the belief in states and districts that continue to vote these bozos into office. Never mind that they themselves are not as well off as they could be, the (R) behind the names of politicians they vote for makes everything A-OK. I don't know about other states, but here in GA the MSM is afraid to bring the faults of these failed politicians into the public's conscious mind because it fears the backlash.
You are kidding right. Boehner and mean Jean never get bad press from the Cincinnati Enquirer. If you took a poll, you would find that only the few Democrats in his district even heard about this, rest live happy waiting for the next tea bag extravaganza or Becks 912 party, unless Barbie Palin is signing books in the area.
I'm sorry - that is NOT a tan - the man is orange - he has to be using bronzer.

I'm supposed to see why Susie loves Dean because he doesn't play golf? Wow, that's deep.
Boehner is greedy, but not dumb. From Politico...
The FEC reports don’t list the attendees at these golf events, the cost per person or any other details. Don Seymour, a spokesman for the PAC, said the expenditures are “related to events that have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to help the Freedom Project support Republican candidates for Congress."
$83K was spent on golf, but I'll bet the participants had to cough up some serious contributions in excess of $83K to tee up with the bronzed, blubbering, boner.
Boehner is a tool.
Can't argue with that.

Spending $83,000 on golf while the country starves. And probably justifies it as, "I earned it."
What is this? A knitting circle?
A little stitch-N-Bitch session about tans and golf...??
And I mean, Jack Nicholson Joker on the Batman movie. Now, don't take me wrong, I love the guy and I believe we could use more people like him. It was just the smile on this particular show.
Because I refuse to.
Gotta love Howard, too: It's "Marie" Antoinette, not "Mary", Howard!
