Boehner's office didn't want to hear my suggestion and pushed me off to voice mail
I called Boehner's office and let him know that going to Iraq without a way to pay for it is fiscally irresponsible to go to war without a way to pay for it and that he should stop obstructing and come up with answers. They asked me for my zip code and when they realized I was from out of state I got shuffled to a voice mail.
Here's the phone number - they will ask you for your zip code and if you don't live in Ohio you will get exiled to voice mail.

Top Democrats propose war surtax

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Top House Democrats Tuesday proposed a "war surtax" to
pay for the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, a plan quickly condemned by
Republicans and opposed by the House leadership.

"Raiding every taxpayer's wallet for the purposes of playing politics with
our national security amounts to one of the most irresponsible proposals
I've seen in a long, long time," House Minority Leader John Boehner said
In a statement. "It's time for Democrats to support our troops and the
strategy that has led them to make undeniable progress in Iraq."
