At 45 I’ve already paid in for a long time… it had damn well BETTER be there. John can bone himself!
But Ted, aren’t those – fighting more wars and giving more money to corporations – the typical, indeed, signature priorities of all US governments the last six decades or so ? Were Mr Boehner to oppose them, he’d put himself in danger of having to make the long version of his birth certificate publically available in order to prove himself a citizen of the aforementioned country – and even then, many would doubt !…

Why do so many Republicans have such cool names like Bush, Dick, Colin, Boehner? Is it a prerequisite or something?
