5. I love hypotheticals. Here's one:

You're in the woods, photographing the local flora and fauna. Suddenly, you see Ted Cruz and John Boehner on the trail below, being pursued by a ferocious bear.

You can reach down and pull one to safety, but only one.

Question: Should you use the wide-angle, or telephoto lens?

[Katashi_itto]

13. I would like the wide-angle, because being the capitalist I am I would want to sell the resulting

Footage.

8. So how'd the ship start to sink?

Was Boehner sailing drunk or was Cruz in cahoots with the icebergs to sink Boehner's ship?

9. I suspect that if Boehner had his way - the Tea Party Republicans would be replaced with

less insane Republicans. Actually my representative in the House who is a liberal Democrat tells me that he knows Boehner quite well and on that the personal level he is a really nice guy. My representative, Gregoria, Killili Camacho Sablan says that since smoking has pretty much been banned in the Capital building - there is one little cubby whole in the court yard where smokers will sneak a cigarette - and he ends up running into Boehner there quite frequently where they often share a smoke as well as some jokes, stories and gossip. His impression is that Boehner would prefer to be more like a Bob Dole Republican - but he just does not have any maneuver room whatsoever because of the extremist in the GOP.

12. bugs me when people say like Boehner that they have no manuever room..

Make the room for god's sake. Stand up! have some balls!

and sorry but someone who is complicit in robbing and killing women and children is not a "really nice guy" in my book.

10. This reminds me of a joke I read in William Shirer's Berlin Diary.

It was, according to him, a joke circulating among Berliners circa 1940.

A plane crash kills Hitler, Goering, and Goebbels.

Q: Who is saved?

A: The German people.
