John Boehner Calls Sen. Ted Cruz a “JackA$$” at Colorado Fundraiser

Speaker John Boehner held a fundraiser this week in Steamboat Springs for Rep. Scott Tipton. Boehner referred to Senator Ted Cruz as a “jacka$$” during his speech. The Daily Caller reported:

Speaker of the House John Boehner stunned audience members Wednesday evening at a Colorado fundraiser by referring to Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz as a “jackass,” two people in attendance tell The Daily Caller.

At a Steamboat Springs event for GOP Rep. Scott Tipton, the Ohio Republican quipped that he likes how Cruz’s presidential campaign keeps “that jackass” out of Washington, and from telling Boehner how to do his job.

That remark rubbed some attendees the wrong way.

“I don’t think it’s terribly speaker-like, and I think it kind of goes against everything that Reagan ever said about disparaging Republicans,” said Ed MacArthur, the president of Native Excavating, who attended the fundraiser.

We lived in the DC area for about a decade,

That was a standing joke, to stay out of bars and whore houses to avoid drunk $inators and Congre$$its.

Boner will resign to be with his family when Trump/Cruz win next year.

Boehner and Pelosi differ, for all practical purposes, on nothing of which I can recall.

Doesn't reflect well on Tipton.

They all make Thomas Dewey and William Scranton seem “conservative”.

Tipton is no Scott McInnis, sadly.

“Boner needs to go, he is a disaster as Speaker. Perhaps with more free time he could play some golf with hid butt buddy Obama.”

Preferably on a Japanese course that’s just crawling with mamushi.
