John Boehner tells Sen. Harry Reid to "go f*ck yourself"

According to Politico, things became very heated when Speaker of the House John Boehner saw Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in the lobby of the White House, just steps from the Oval Office, last Friday amid the negotiations to avoid the "fiscal cliff."

“Go f— yourself,” Boehner sniped as he pointed his finger at Reid, according to multiple sources present.

Reid, a bit startled, replied: “What are you talking about?”

Boehner repeated: “Go f— yourself.”

What statesmanship. No wonder Congress has such a low approval rating. This is how our leaders carry themselves.

Perhaps Boehner truly isn't up to the job of Speaker of the House.

  2. The republicans are so angry it will take several generations for them to accept that a black man was elected to the white house twice...

  3. I saw this reported on at least one national network news outlet also. If the Speaker of the House cannot lead by tempering his own speech, he should be a true leader and step down, allowing someone else who can manage the position properly.

  4. Is the Speaker of the House cannot temper his own speech, he should be a true leader and remove himself from this position and allow a true leader to assume this role. I have written to him and told him as much and suggest we all do. Go to - http://www.speaker.gov/contact
