Boehner: Adds "return to slavery" option as incentive to get Tea Party members to pass bill
Still can't get all the Tea Party members to agree to vote for it!!

Boehner said, "May be best plan I have yet to get Obama out of the White House".

Senator Mitch McConnell phoned Boehner and agreed with him and then raised the Stars and Bars flag above his desk in his Senatorial office and spontaneously began singing "My Old Kentucky Home" while rocking back and forth in a rocking chair while staring at a picture of Jefferson Davis hanging on the wall of his office.

However, Georgia Tea Party Representatives say they already returned to using slavery there 11 years ago as soon as George Bush was sworn in, so they were not moved by the latest new offer by Boehner.

Tennessee Tea Party Representatives were impressed, and asked if Boehner could also add in the 3/5ths rule for census taking as well to make it easier for Senator Corker to get re-elected next year (fat chance).

Texas Tea Party Representatives holed up in a Southern corner of one of the meeting rooms and stacked chairs up against the doors preparing against an immediate attack from Mexico after declaring their independence from the United States.

Meanwhile, Florida Tea Party Representatives took the day off and went to the beach.

2. The sun shines bright in My Old Kentucky home,
'Tis summer, and people are gay :)

(yes, I know those are the revised lyrics)
