Blumenthal: John Boehner is 'alcoholic,' 'lazy,' 'banal'
« on: September 01, 2015, 01:34:18 pm »
Hillary Clinton confidant Sid Blumenthal had nothing but bad things to say about incoming House Speaker John Boehner on the day Republicans won back the House from Democrats in 2010, according to new emails released by the State Department late Monday.

"Boehner is despised by the younger, more conservative members of the House Republican Conference," Blumenthal wrote to Clinton. "They are repelled by his personal behavior."

"He is louche, alcoholic, lazy, and without any commitment to any principle," he added.

According to dictionary.com, "louche" means "dubious, shady, disreputable."

Well, at least with his assessment of John Boehner.

Of course. Should have put some qualifiers on my comment.  ^-^

I think that's a pretty good assessment of Boehner, however I would like to add that he is a RINO jackass.

I wonder if he will be offended by this email?  They all think the dems love them because they vote their way all the time.
