John Boehner Resigns

Now that House Speaker John Boehner has announced he is resigning, his cascading tears yesterday become understandable. He cried because he, as a devout Catholic had strived mightily to have His Holiness address Congress. But no doubt his tears are also of relief that he no longer has to deal with the riven, divided, dysfunctional body politic. Let the next guy decide whether to shut down the government, shooting DC in the foot in yet another ideological temper tantrum, this one over Planned Parenthood. Have a drink on me Mr. Speaker. Thx for your service.
