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.

The GOP-e isn’t even attempting to hide their contempt for us anymore.

I think a hard rain’s gonna fall.

Boner: The only guy I know that is a drunk, a RINO, a bought-and-paid-for traitor, a liar, and a useless fool. Did I leave anything out??

“I don’t understand why Boener would do this. Does he not know that Trump is resonating with the public and that they are, in general, sick of him?”

Drunks and drug abusers and those who abuse both alcohol and drugs have zero self control.

That is why they say terrible and bad things about others and drive away the good people.

I remember this picture applying to the previous speaker, but it works for this speaker as well.

OK. So his motto is, “Do as I say, not as I do”?

People in OH are going to really get mad when Boehner endorses Jebbie instead of Kasich.

As stated in my tagline:

“Tan drunk and stupid is no way to govern Mr. Speaker”

Kudos to Dean Wormer for the idea...

Time is short Boner...time is short. My sincere desire is that Cruz and Trump FINALLY drain the swamp.

Boehner is the one who is the jackass!!! He’s spineless. Boehner has caved to obama on so many issues that I’ve almost forgotten that he’s supposed to be on our side!!!
