Ah politics.

Representative Boehner, while talking on a Fox Radio show today made the statement concerning Obama that "He's never even had a real job for God's sake."

Now, I suppose Mr Boehner might not consider such things as being a community organizer, a civil rights lawyer, or a law professional real jobs, that's fine.

But what is absolutely hilarious about his statement is that Rep. Paul Ryan, the "mastermind" of the GOP's budget, actually NEVER has held a job outside of politics.  He worked as a congressional staffer until he was approached about entering politics so he left being a staffer to work as a "marketing consultant" to his family's construction business briefly before running for office.

So, what would Mr. Boehner say about his fellow Congressman, who by Boehner's measuring stick must have actually held NEGATIVE jobs if Obama's jobs didn't count.

Its idiocy.  The people in charge of both parties are idiots but I really really don't understand the Republican view of keeping the rich as rich as possible and somehow that will trickle down.  

Oh well.  Only a few more months until another 3 years of stagnant idiocy.   *sigh*
