People Are Being Mean to Orange Boner


In case you missed soon-to-be Speaker of the House (gag) John "Orange Boner" Boehner's interview on "60 Minutes" last night, as we made a point of doing, TPM has memorialized it. The best part: wherein Lesley Stahl induces Orange Boner's waterworks. See Orange Boner un-persuasively (to us) claim he don't use no stinkin' tanning products, he's always been that shade of burnt sienna! Also, the "no compromise" Orange Boner thinks Obama was mean to him by calling him a hostage-taker. Well, just for that, we're going to have to start referring to him as Osama Bin Boehner! How do you like that...er...no, don't cry, please!

Ah ha!

Representative Boehner is "a person of color"!

Natural - not artificial.

This suggests his ancestry may be part Asian (Yellow), and part Native American (Red). The combination yielding a man of orange hue.

I had once thought him the heir to George Hamilton - But, alas, he's just another Tangerine.

As long as his color stays in the citrus fruit family, it's ok!

I remember a man who worked at DOE who was quite orange. I believe he consumed a carotene product which gives one that unseasonal/unnatural color. So while Mr. Boehner may claim not to use any tanning products, he didn't deny drinking a lot of carrot juice! P.E.C.
