amusing bit from Boehner interview

AMANPOUR: Congress, obviously, is not very popular with the people. So no matter what you say about the president, Congress's approval ratings are way lower. How do you live with that, 9 percent approval?

BOEHNER: The Congress has never been popular with the -- with the American people.

AMANPOUR: But this is the worst.
