He should make a statement on the drinking issue. Too many people believe he is boozing it up. I sincerely believe it now.

Watched my parents drink themselves to death. Toward the end they were in another world.
See some of that in Boehner. And them fucking Camels he's smoking ain't helping.

Boehner had to know it would end like this. Once Harry Reid dug in with Obama it was game over. Obama loves his country and especially his base, he has the flexibility to stand on principle now. Boehner has to fight for every two years to keep his power. The whole three weeks has been an exercise in Tea Party lunacy in my opinion. I guess he lent them the keys to the car to satisfy them. Crazy

I am very Sorry about your parents. We learn from their experiences.

bar bills aren't that cheap for the common man, let alone what a politician likes/bars they go too. Hell my daily bar tab was about 70 bucks and I drank beer.
