Great Fuck. I'm truly sorry to hear that.

My own Congressman is a dick, but hardly a Boehner.

I think that pic of Boehner up top ranks somewhere between Steve Buscemi and Buffalo Bill from "Silence of the Lambs" on the creepy scale.

I never realized until I read those article comments just how adamantly against majority rule some people are.

Does that go on forever? I think it does.

That is one creepy looking mofo. I haven't read any of the currently popular 'vampire' fiction but is it possible that Congress is actually filled with the undead? They would of course have to be the dreaded 'reverse vampires' and I don't even want to think about that.

i don't know about that reverse vampire (is that a thing?) but i DO know if buffy was still on, he'd be the season villain and buffy would stake his ass and he'd go 'pouff' with a spray of fine gray dust.

Reverse vampires come out in the daylight and disappear at night. I think Boehner's taste in pastel clothes, orange skin, and ability to cry at will are highly suspicious. If not a vampire he's possibly a space alien.

IMDB blocks the direct linking of images from their site. Don't know if it's them being pricks, or the studios who own the images, but the smart money is on the latter.
