Boehner always reminds me of the comedian Rip Taylor, a regular on the afternoon and evening talk shows. Rip would play an older drunk waving a handkerchief and boo-hooing the most minor of things while taking a swig out of a liquor bottle. At least Rip only played a bawling drunk and was presumably sober when not in the part.
I get Rip Taylor confused with Rip Torn.
One was on the $1.98 Beauty Show.
