John Boehner wiped away his crocodile tears and is all sparkles 'n coke smiles again! Barack Obama gave up faster than usual in the dimwitted 10-hour Washington smackdown over the Wednesday night time slot Obama requested for his jobs speech, the same time slot the GOP is using for its latest presidential debate. Boehner and the rest of the GOP stamped their feet and flung their wet diapers at the White House for a few hours until Dad threw up his hands, moved his speech to the following day and then typed an

Really, we need an excuse for that? How 'bout, I'm breathing and thus need to paint my face, rip off my shirt, and drink beer. MisterBarry encourages these activities.
I know I won't be watching... is this going to be "hosted" by Faux News zombies asking tough questions like "why do you think Obama hates America?"
We have "separate but equal" branches of government so the House doesn't have to do anything the POTUS asks*. But Boehner and his crowd seem to take special pleasure in pushing back at assertions of presidential prerogatives and authority. Like not returning phone calls, shouting "you lie", saying "where's the birf. cert". And don't get me started about confirmation hearings.
In my job, I am expected to work cooperatively but speak the truth. That doesn't keep me from showing up and listening. But next time my boss tells me to attend some meeting, I'll decline by reason of needed "security sweeps". See ya on the unemployment lines, wonketeers. ________________________ * Under Dubya's "unitary presidency" congress did everything he asked without question. Maybe he waterboarded them.
Look at my nice clean clock It's the cleanest one on the block Here's my ass, oh see They just handed it to me Look at my nice clean clock.

The Ballad of Barry
Look at my nice clean clock It's the cleanest one on the block Here's my ass, oh see They just handed it to me Look at my nice clean clock.
