The Boehner And Steele Show

Some hilarity from two of the leaders of the Republican Party, which I thought complemented each other nicely.

First, here's drama-queen John Boehner on the floor of the House after the stimulus package passed without one Republican vote:

And here's what RNC Chairman Michael Steele told Glenn Beck when asked why voters should ever press the Republican lever again:

STEELE: Yeah, no, Glenn. I'm not gonna, look, I'm not going to soft pedal this with you. I'm not going to try to blow smoke either. The reality of it is, you are absolutely right. You have absolutely no reason, none, to trust our word or our actions at this point. So, yeah, it's going to be an uphill climb.

Pretty much says it all.

John Boehner...It's like Newt without any brains and DeLay without any balls...

He has to be one of the lamest pols I have ever seen.

Steal the Steele Show and Tape It

His comments are going to make a treasure trove of clips for campaign ads, and he is the gift that just keeps giving.

Glen Beck borders on racism in most of his shows, but what is the context here?

Steele was hilarious! I never would have expected a neocon to be so frank.

Boner is pretty funny, too. His outrage is so, so phony it's like watching a B movie.

Re: The Boehner And Steele Show

Because clearly, John B, the entire bill was written in that 48 hours, and none of it could have possibly been read earlier and then just not rewritten.

Idiot. Chain-smoking idiot.

Todd, it's "soft peddle" not "soft pedal."

Peddle as in trying to sell you something?
