Former House Speaker John Boehner doesn't hold back when judging members of his own party in his new book, 'On the House: A Washington Memoir' He pushed Fox News Channel's Roger Ailes to stop with the conspiracy theories, only to realize Ailes had become 'president of the club' of crazies

'All of this crap swirling around was going to make it tough for me to cut any deals with Obama as the new House Speaker. Of course, it has to be said that Obama didn't help himself much either.'

'But on the other hand - how do you find common cause with people who think you are a secret Kenyan Muslim traitor to America?' Boehner observed.

Boehner complained about the tone of the new Tea Party-tied members.

'I had to explain how to actually get things done,' he explained. 'A lot of that went straight through the ears of most of them, especially the ones who didn't have brains that got in the way. Incrementalism? Compromise? That wasn't their thing.'

'A lot of them wanted to blow up Washington. That's why they thought they were elected,' he continued.

Boehner is still taking in several large shots of Whiskey every hour and spewing out mindless garbage, just like he was doing when he was Speaker. Nothing new here.

OHIO PING!
Please let me know if you want on or off the Ohio Ping list.

NOTE: There are dozens of old “Boehner Stories” posted by Freepers in the last few days. These point out the utter decrepitude of this groveling drunk. Rather than post them all, if interested do a KEYWORD SEARCH for OHIO.

He’s never been back in the Speaker’s seat if it wasn’t for the morons

[RC one]

He talks about compromise and incrementalism and reckless aholes while the democrats talk about eliminating the filibuster so they can pack the SCOTUS with partisan judges so they can control state elections and rule as dictators. This is the problem with Republicans, they don’t know how to attack, they only know how to surrender.
