Minority Leader John Boehner, who may be looking for a job soon, unless no one else wants the one he currently has, called Barack Obama "chicken shit" in a campaign appearance in Oxford, Ohio.

1. Give that man a pink slip. Stat!

[ccharles000]

2. OMG

:puke:

[BeyondGeography]

3. Didn't go over too well with these kids

Though the audience primarily consisted of Miami University's chapter of College Republicans and other McCain supporters, the few self-identified independent voters present said the comments did not sit well with them.

Steve Murdoch, an Oxford resident, said after hearing Boehner's speech, he would likely be voting for Obama.

"I thought he spent more time slamming his (party's) opponent than promoting himself," Murdoch said. "Just from what I saw tonight-I try to keep an open mind-but I was fairly disappointed. I definitely think that McCain is more concerned with demoting his rival than he is with promoting himself."

Sophomore Laura Heins agreed with Murdoch.

"To hear this man call this man a chicken shit in front of an audience was absolutely appalling," Heins said. "I couldn't believe it, this man's supposed to be a respected politician who's supposed to have a positive public image … It angered me that he would go that low in order to promote his own candidate."

[grannylib]

20. And hhmmmmm, who else in the rePuke party is known for that???

Chimpy? Cheney? And of course, McC*nt...
What class.

[tblue37]

39. Don't forget Daddy Bush calling Clinton and Gore "bozos."

Republicans have no sense of decency or respect. They are just trashy.

[WinkyDink]

40. And Bar's reference to Ferraro as "rhymes with 'witch'."

[Thrill]

9. If you needed any more proof that Obama is on the way to winning OH

Look no further. They've resulted to childish name calling.

[FVZA_Colonel]

10. Well, this should provide something for the media to talk about other Zogby's piece of shit "poll."

[cliffordu]

11. It would be too bad if Boner became a victim of a dislike crime.

not a hate crime....Just a random ass kicking.

Really. It would be too bad. I would feel terrible.

[SpookyCat]

33. LOL!!!

I love that, dislike crime!

And I too, would be crestfallen should that occur.

[symbolman]

44. It would be my pleasure to get Seriously PEEVED at his ass..

Never seen a Turd "snivel" before, what no TEARS this time?

He worries so..

I swear the guy looks exactly like a Twilight Zone Android to me, and High Def makes it appear all the more possible.. Ever seen him "Blink"? Proof, there..

As one of my Android (Democratic Boss) once told me (A Super geek who was building nukes at 17, HE never "blinked" either), he said..

"We prefer the Term 'Artificial Person'.."

But then he didn't have shit for blood like Boner either.. Back to the Shop with that broken piece of scrap, the Diesel powered "Boner 3.6", another right wing creation gone kaput.. :)

[trayfoot]

12. You know....

I am never amazed at the "lows" the reTHUGlican can descend to! Really....why can't they play -if not according to the rules, at least according to the social expectations?

[Phredicles]

13. Is there time for him to be Bachmannized?

What a Boner.:grr:

[mrreowwr_kittty]

14. That's President "Chicken Shit" to you, asshole. nt

[WinkyDink]

41. Heh. Absolutely. Lines from "Spamalot": "You're a prat." "Yes, but that's 'SIR Prat' to you."

[elleng]

15. GREAT to read this, about Oxford, OH, and my 'alma mater!'

30. really stupid comment....I know what you're trying to do...it won't work

here.

[Oddly Stevenson]

16. Paraphrasing Clint Eastwood

Boner should know chicken shit because he sees it every morning in the mirror when he shaves.

[RollWithIt]

17. The Minority Leader of the US Congress is using phrases like "Chicken Shit"

What does that say about the Republican Party? Are we back in high school now?

[AlCzervik]

19. isn't there some kind of decorum code or something for congress? He's still on our dime

after all.

[blitzen]

21. I think he meant to say something about fried chicken...then realized

he was about to pull a Fuzzy Zoeller, so he blurted out "shit!"

[ellie]

22. And then did he burst into tears?

[Amerigo Vespucci]

23. Boner talks tough, but...

Now that's chicken shit.

[Tutonic]

34. All that booze makes him do strange things.

25. Held at the Brick Street Bar and Grill! Bohner is known for tipping & I don't mean the waitress!

http://media.www.miamistudent.net/media/storage/paper776/news/2008/10/31/FrontPage/Boehner.Stumps.For.Mccain.In.Oxford-3518120.shtml

Following a three-week tour around the country campaigning for House Republicans, House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) stumped for presidential candidate Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) at Brick Street Bar and Grill.

But to be fair someone stated this in the comments section at the bottom:

"Once again, we need to read the article. It said that Boehner called Obama a chicken, not a chickenshit. He called the idea of voting "present" chickenshit. Based on Obama's record in the Illinois State Senate, Boehner characterized Obama as a chicken."

[WCGreen]

26. Once again, I am so Proud to live in Ohio....

[LynnTheDem]

27. What a true representative he is of Republicans. So professional and dignified.

:eyes:

[Laelth]

28. LOL. Awesome! After listening to Boehner, now they want to vote for Obama.

Keep up the good work, Congressman. While Senator Obama doesn't need your help, every vote counts, and I appreciate the good work you're doing for us.

:rofl:

The United States is a LIBERAL Country.

31. Off script and wide of the talking points

Boehner unveiled.

[jillan]

32. What a classy bunch those repuglicans are.

[LatteLibertine]

35. Repubs

know it's over for them, and they're angry.

[political_Dem]

36. Let's see if Boehner, like Eagleburger, retracts his statement.

;) :sarcasm:

Probably not. The Republicans will lie and try to say that Boehner was giving a compliment.

I love it how they try to make feces smell like roses.

[Tigress DEM]

38. Yah, well, if they walk into a bar and this Irish woman sees them, they'll retract.

Somewhere between the pavement and the fence.


TIRED of these name calling little pervs.

[Tigress DEM]

37. Boner knows shit. He has his head up his ass so much, though....

He's just gazing at Obama though brown colored spectacles and misinterpreting what he sees.

[Forkboy]

42. That's a laugh, coming from the Dim Weeper.

[ForeignSpectator]

43. As an outside observer, the minority leader of a party in the US House of Representatives calls the

PRESIDENTIAL candidate of the other party a "chicken-shit".

What an attestation of the bankruptcy of an entire party. These kinds of statements and class you see only from nazi parties where I live...

[dennis4868]

45. a guy with name Boner...

should not be calling anyone any bad names....hahaha

[Vinca]

46. Was it before or after his 3 martini lunch?

:rofl:
