Irony alert: "boner" used to be slang word for a mistake; Boehner blows it...

"boner"



blunder: an embarrassing mistake

Let's all give a round of applause to Boehner for screwing it up for the Repube-lickers.



This is the story:



Boehner essentially said to Wolf Blitzer, that Donald Rumsfeld was not responsible for the failures in Iraq, but that the generals were.

These are the very same generals who cannot become involved in political matters, so they could never defend themselves.

Boehner was trying to push it off on people who cannot defend themselves.

Here is the original story thread:

3. I know, and this comment is EVEN WORSE than what they pukes...
could manufacture.

Boehner essentially blamed the generals in Iraq (who cannot defend themselves) for the failure of the Iraq War. They can't respond because they can't be political, so we Dems have to protect those generals.
