Hey Boehner: Nobody’s Listening to Your Fake Outrage

Predictably, Republican House Minority Leader John Boehner weighed in on President Obama’s trip to Copenhagen tomorrow to advocate before the International Olympic committee on behalf of Chicago as the site for the 2016 Olympics.  And predictably, he feigns outrage:

Listen I think it’s a great idea to promote Chicago but he’s the president of the United States, not the mayor of Chicago,” Boehner said. “And the problems we have here at home affect all Americans and that’s where his attention ought to be.

I read somewhere yesterday day that the trip is going to take all of 18 hours.  Big whoop. Oh, and by the way Johnnie boy, where’s the Republican health care proposal?  Shouldn’t you be workin’ on that rather than whining about petty stuff like this?  I don’t think any reasonable person thinks that this trip is taking Obama away from anything.  After all, the guy can chew gum and walk at the same time.
