It seems that in getting over my obsessive hatred of Bush, my wrath has been redirected toward John Boehner, the boneheaded House Minority Leader. How does he get the pronunciation "Baynor" out of "Boehner"? I'm no linguist, but my father's name was Siegfried, so I DO know a little German. "Boner" is a lot closer to the way the name should be pronounced, at least in the Homeland.
Anyway, I did "the google", as Bush used to say, on "Boehner bailout", and the SECOND entry was a letter in the Cape Cod Times! You can use "the google" to see for yourself, but I will provide the text of the letter here:
| Quote: |
House Minority Leader John Boehner is "shocked, shocked" at President Obama's $800 billion proposed stimulus package.
This is the same person who for the past eight years was heavily involved in an administration that engaged in an illegal war, causing the slaughter of thousands of our people, plus hundreds of thousands of Iraqis — also costing billions of dollars, giving tax cuts to the very rich in a time of war (unheard of), deregulation that allowed hedge funds and financial institutions to drain money from the economy and create this brutal recession/depression we all are currently experiencing, liable for a trillion-dollar national debt after inheriting a surplus, and myriad other unconscionable acts that have crippled our great country for years to come.
Do these people hear themselves?
We all know what Claude Rains was up to when he was "shocked, shocked" in the film "Casablanca"; we can only assume that Boehner is just as duplicitous as Capt. Renault, and the Republicans will continue their pernicious business-as-usual tactics.

Wow! It appears that Bonnie knows something about Boehner, and from what she says, it looks like like Bush had Boehner in the palm of his hand for the last eight years.
Hmmm... Hempel sounds German, too, and maybe Bonnie knows how to pronounce the name.
Anyway, she's got a grasp of Boehner's hard line opposition to the stimulus package. Maybe it has something to do with being from Cape Cod.
