[font size=5]House Speaker John Boehner's daughter ties knot with Jamaican-born beau
Lindsay Boehner exchanged vows with Dominic Lakhan Friday evening in Delray Beach, Fla. Lakhan, sporting dreadlocks that extended down to his waist, was busted for pot possession in 2006.[/font]


.... Lakhan, wearing a dapper gray suit and sporting dreadlocks extending to his waist, exchanged vows with Boehner at a small bed-and-breakfast as the bride’s straight-laced Republican father and another 80 guests looked on.


Lakhan’s new father-in-law is an observant Catholic, a strict conservative and an opponent of marijuana legalization. ....

"Dad" to smoke a spliff or two and chillax a bit?

Boner might just dis-impale himself from whatever that big long thing he has up his wazoo and even find a few facial expressions -- which he really could use.

I enjoy a vision of Boner with a bong and some munchies, listening to Bob Marley and groovin' on Jah. He might even turn from orange to green.

Boner Before: "Humph!" Scotch! "Humph! Obstruct! "Corporate interests!" "Wealth rules!" "No! I can't accept your offer!" "Humph!" Bourbon, expensive wine, etc.

Boner After: "Hey Obama, Dude! I'm into getting down with the people now. This corporate shill thing is so lame and notice, I'm smiling. Let's get some Doritos and work things out. I would rather party than hang-out with these money-bloated stuffed shirt authoritarian Fascists anyway. Take a hit and lets dig some tunes while we get a good deal for peace and love going, man!"
