Hey Boehner, Don’t hold back, Tell us how you really feel!

From the “Not mincing words” Dept…:

Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) had a few choice words about House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) landmark climate-change bill after its passage Friday.

When asked why he read portions of the cap-and-trade bill on the floor Friday night, Boehner told The Hill, “Hey, people deserve to know what’s in this pile of s–t.”

Using his privilege as leader to speak for an unlimited time on the House floor, Boehner spent an hour reading from the 1200-plus page bill that was amended 20 hours before the lower chamber voted 219-212 to approve it.

Eight Republicans voted with Democrats to pass the bill; 44 House Democrats voted against it.

Pelosi’s office declined to comment on Boehner’s jab. But one Democratic aide quipped, “What do you expect from a guy who thinks global warming is caused by cow manure?”

One Democrat was upset that his leaders would needlessly force vulnerable Dems to vote for a bill that will come back to haunt them. Mississippi Rep. Gene Taylor (D) voted against the measure that he says will die in the Senate.

“A lot of people walked the plank on a bill that will never become law,” Taylor told The Hill after the gavel came down.

Any other time; I would be criticizing Bonhner about the Language. But he does have a point. The bill is not going to create jobs. It is only going to result in higher energy bills for everyone.

Here’s Boehner on the stimulus: (H/T HotAir.com)

He has some very good points. Since the stimulus has passed, no real jobs have been created. I’m still unemployed. Most people around these parts that I know, are still without work. Like my cousin; who has a new baby, and needs work quite badly. So, Obama’s plan is simply a distraction from the real problem. This stimulus is simply the Democrats way of doing things. Throw money at a problem and hope it goes away. They have been doing this for years and will continue to do, as long as people continue to vote for them.
