" The Great Orange Eunuch, John Boehner, Speaker Of The House, is very vexed at the incivility and pig-ignorance evinced by the comments of Rep. Steve King of Iowa, who is presently engaged in quadrupling-down on his original stupidity regarding all the Mexicans with their cantaloupe-sized calves who are smuggling weed into the country. &amp;quot;There is no place in this debate for hateful or ignorant comments from elected officials,&amp;quot; Boehner said. He added that what King said &amp;quot;does not reflect the values of the American people or the Republican Party. We all need to do our work in a constructive, open and respectful way.&amp;quot; Yeah, right. Restrain your guffaws for a moment because Congressman King would like to retort. &amp;quot;If people were offended, were they offended by the number or my choice of the fruit? And, if so, what&amp;#039;s offensive about the number or that? I can&amp;#039;t imagine why it&amp;#039;s racist and if I offended anybody it was drug smugglers and it doesn&amp;#039;t trouble me to offend drug smugglers. If I intended to offend anybody that would be the group,&amp;quot; King said. After speaking on the House floor, King didn&amp;#039;t seem phased by Boehner&amp;#039;s comments. &amp;quot;We know that the speaker responds to criticism in the press.&amp;quot; King said, adding that he would have preferred Boehner to approach him personally before speaking to the media. Here&amp;#039;s my problem. King keeps being pig-ignorant. Boehner condemns him. King becomes pig-ignorant-er, and Boehner condemns him again, and King then tells Boehner to whistle up a tree. According to his congressional website, King is the chairman of a subcommittee on agriculture, and he&amp;#039;s a member of the Judiciary Committee&amp;#039;s subcommittee on immigration and border security. My question is why does he still have either of these jobs. The Speaker is empowered to strip him of his committee assignments, and to fk with his efforts to help the folks back in Storm Lake. King is making the Speaker look more impotent almost by the hour. If Boehner were really serious about the pig-ignorance of Steve King, and if Boehner were an actual Speaker Of The House, and not a laughable castrato in the service of his party&amp;#039;s Id, Steve King&amp;#039;s desk would be on the sidewalk by now.
