What A Leader

John Boehner, last seen crying on the House floor for no good reason, thinks that OTHER people are wimps:

Rep. Heather Wilson (R-N.M.) called for comity Wednesday during a meeting of the Republican Conference after House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) referred to Senate colleagues who have begun to favor a change in course in Iraq as "wimps."

Wilson declined to comment directly on what Boehner had said during the closed-door meeting, but she noted that "Senator [Richard] Lugar’s (R-Ind.) speech was one of the more thoughtful speeches [she had heard] in the Senate in a long time."

The lawmaker added that the war and the thoughts of her colleagues about the conflict "should always be taken seriously."

See, some things are more important than American kids dying. Like not being a wimp.

Fucking 6th-graders run our country.
