Boner Boning Lobbyist?


Is Rethug House Minority Leader John "Orange Boner" Boehner (Adulterer-OH) having an affair with lobbyist Lisbeth Lyons, as the New York Times is purportedly about to publish?  If so, it would mean, among other things, that Boner is already violating the sanctity of the "traditional marriage" tenet of the Lemon Pledge.  (That didn't take long!)  Boner and Ms. Lyons, who lobbies for the American Printing Association, both deny any improper entanglement.  Boner is trying hard to keep a stiff... upper lip, and needs to make sure his thrusting and parrying isn't flaccid, lest someone penetrate to the crux of the matter.

But really, if true, Boner doesn't have much to worry about.  Look at John Ensign, David Vitter, Nikki Haley, etc.  The micro-brow sheeple that are the Rethug base are a forgiving lot, as long as the transgressor is a right-wing hypocrite.   Also, isn't this simply a physical manifestation of what lobbyists and pols do on a regular basis anyway?
