“John Boehner is the ultimate Beltway hack, a man whose unmatched and self-serving skill at political survival has made him, after two decades in Washington, the hairy blue mold on the American congressional sandwich.”
Matt Taibbi beginning his profile of Boehner at Rolling Stone
One more:
“Boehner, in short, has for most of his career been a Bush Republican, i.e., a corporate schmoozer and a remorseless spender of taxpayer money for whom the notion of small government is just something to say when the cameras are on, or when the public money in question might go to poor people or immigrants or other such unlikely golfers.”
Boy, Lee Harvey Taibbi really presses his Manchurian candidacy!
One has to take his writings with a shot of vodka because his ‘mission’ colors ALL his drivel.
