  • what documentary is this from

  • Notice the bad practice was passing the checks out on the house floor. No problem passing checks out.

  • im love boehner!!!

  • Snowflake-mode converts this video from tragedy to farce nicely.

  • There should not have been subsidies for any company. The checks are just an extra level of insult to the American people, we know how congress makes their money.

  • He and the rest should be tried for treason.

  • Boehner: It's bad we have to stop it. 

  • what programme is this from?

  • Because he is a corrupted orange bastard?

  • I like his little gold pinkie ring and those myopic eyes. It gives him a properly sinister appearance....

  • "If my memory serves me correctly..."

    What a piece of dung.

  • @zaquis No, you pretend not see the rank corruption and dishonesty in the Republican Party. If it were a Democrat, you would have plenty to say.

  • this guy is a douchebag

  • our congress is filled with total scum

  • Does anyone else see the fluff of smoke at 1:20?

  • Our nation is so doomed.

  • Good questions about how much money was in the envelopes. DYING to know!

  • how much money was on each check? how cheap is it to buy a senator these days does anybody know?

  • Boehner is a sell-out to the American people.... kinda funny hearing him talk about how it's wrong and it's needs to stop WHILE he himself is doing it.... I think I'll go rob a bank and tell everyone how it's wrong and it needs to stop....

  • 1:20 - 1:22 Boehner appears to be smoking

  • AAAASSSSSHHHHHOOOOOLLLLLEEEEEE representing his party well

  • Am I the only person who isn't surprised at all by this?

  • Man, I really wish I could stop this practice that I just got away with and told you I got away with. Don't arrest me or make me lose my job or anything, just promote me. You know...What's best for America...

  • "... it's a practice we're trying to stop-" I had to pause the video right there. Imagine this:

    "Well, yes sir, people- myself included -do steal from the cash register. It's a practice we're trying to stop."

    Fuck politics.

  • his name should be pronounced differently assuming its of Germanic decent lol

  • At some point we gotta fuckin rise up.

  • @uns8ed1 Very true!!!

  • Of the corporation, by the corporation and for the corporation.

  • 6 people got bribed to dislike this video.

  • This video didn't really surprise me. I've been certain Republicans (and some Dems as well) have been doing this kind of thing for a very long time...

  • American state capitalism. It's the best democracy money can buy.

  • Dems, Pubs, whatever. You're all f*cking assholes. Everyone who's not a politician gets all worked up about their side being right and blaming the other side. That's exactly what they want us to keep doing. It's good for their business of politics. Out elected officials don't do dick for us. We have to do it for ourselves...and we're not all millionaires or corporations so it makes it kinda hard.

  • At 0:59 the tape is cut. A little suspect in my opinion. shady.

  • @tehroflcopters The audio cuts out but the video is clear. Read his lips.

  • @tehroflcopters deflect it again.

  • he has done the EXACT same thing with the auto industry as well.

  • "an industry that kills 443,000 Americans every year" is completely and utterly irrelevant in this case... Emotional appeal ftw!

  • @DrNeroCF

    How can you say that's irrelevant? That would be like saying we shouldn't subsidize any kind of agriculture based on whether or not people need food to LIVE. If life and death aren't "relevant" to you, what is???

  • @gurlcattica: "an industry that produces food, which makes n people a year fat..."

    Did all that money go into taking away individuals' choice and forcing them to smoke?

    It's terrible that bribes get passed around, but don't make it about the product, that's completely irrelevant.

  • These decisions don't help Americans, it helps those making these decisions. Should this not be Treason? I don't understand US politics, how is this legal? We need to totally revamp this system. It's disgusting.

  • Republicans are taking bribes from the rich? NO SHIT!

  • Its stuff like this that makes me want to get into politics just to show the world it can be done cleanly... of course I would probably end up being murdered.

  • White people!!!!!

  • Wooooo go Boehner. Just like the time you tried to destroy the economy of the world by playing chicken with the deficit.

  • "Yeah boss, I stole money from the register. It's something that a lot of people do and we're trying to stop it."

  • GOD DAMN YOU LIBERALS AND YOUR FACTS

    YOU GO TO HELL YOU GO TO HELL AND YOU DIE WITH YOUR FACTS AND LOGIC

  • @g0djunx To be fair, it's like this for both parties. It doesn't matter what parties will come after this, it'll keep happening as long as there is authority to bribe.

  • @g0djunx

    Go screw yourself buddy... Facts make you mad don't they...

  • @g0djunx too u bad u don't know what facts are or logic cuz if you did you would have some!

  • Perhaps if responses were more substantive and less obscene, your reactions would be more widely accepted by the general public; just a friendly suggestion.

  • reddit

    

  • @changoterror why does somebody always have to say that? It gets annoying.

  • It's gone on for a long time - Oh, well that makes ok then.

  • Wait wait, so he does something like this and he doesn't resign? yet, a fucking model democrat like Andy Weiner resigns over fucking dick pics? Fuck this system is so fucking corrupt

  • @ivegotamnesia Yeah, they are actual gangsters. Gangsters run the US government. There is proof that actual gangsters run the US government. These are the same politicians that go on about their Christian god.

  • can someone summarize to me quickly whats going on? Why is accepting bribes legal i dont understand?

  • @topilopi123 Because America

  • @topilopi123

    Because politicians are fucktards.

  • @MCPetruk reddit

  • This vid is getting a ton of hits right now. Was it mentioned on TV? Radio? Online?

  • @MCPetruk Better yet, it's on Reddit.

  • Shouldn't have done it at all. Fucking corrupt ass clowns. Lying out his ass.

  • I hate this shit. Why are these assholes ruling us?

  • I hope every one of them gets lung cancer.

  • Pitchforks. Torches. It's tiem.

  • why are we sitting here behind our computers!

  • @GoberJim Road trip to DC? We can crash a session of Congress and make Boehner cry.

  • I don't understand why he says it was the wrong thing to do to accept it on the house floor like accepting lobbyist money is ok if you do it in private?

  • "We have to stop this. What I just did, yeah, it's dispicable isn't it."

  • Bhoener sounds like a child molester saying "ill never do this again, its so terrible of me" he should be in prison like one too, for life.

  • Wake up, wake up, it's the first of the month. Fucking corporate welfare leeches.

  • great

  • There is no law in this country. It will become apparent as you go to the funerals of your loved ones. I've been there already, carrying a coffin. As crime and decay spread across America, remember the source of the infection starts at the whitehouse. I won't capitalize that word. They invalidated any respect I should have, when they filled it's halls with thieves. THESE PEOPLE NEED TO GO TO PRISON OR HELL. Either everyone in this country is castrated or retarded. History will shame you.

  • The republican party is nothing but a bought and paid for subsidiary of special interest, big oil, the health care cartel, the banks, and Wall Street, and the U.S. Chamber Of Commerce.

  • @bigtexansfan so are the democrats just fyi

  • @zaquis this is exactly the kind of equivocation that lets Republicans get away with being comic book evil. Democrats are centrist corporate whores who are milquetoast at their best, but they're not actively driving this country towards a cliff and cackling the whole way.

  • @sarsmask lol yes they are. then they just point to the big bad republicans when they get nothing done or make things worse. the democrats can do whatever they want (just stay slightly less evil than republicans) and still get votes as long as most americans are like you

  • @zaquis Isn't it enough that the guy is taking bribes?? Why do you keep defending them?

  • @dmcvea i'm not defending any political party

  • im not gonna tell you who was handing out the checks because im a pussy

  • right.... you'll never do it again..... you bought out piece of shit. I betcha big oil had nothing to do with the subsidies you just renewed for them did they?

  • Here is your Speaker of the House.

    These people are bought and paid for. Boehner even has the balls to fire up a cigarette in front of everyone to toss his arrogance in our faces.

    I hope you individuals that voted for these people to have the power to guide this country are finally realizing how god damn stupid you were.

  • It's alright because Boner prayed about it beforehand and cried afterwards. Just like he does before beating off in the Capitol Men's Room.

  • Both parties are controlled by the same special interests, immoral unethical politicians selling out to AIPAC and the CFR.

    DONT fall for the spin of divide and conquer! They want to pit the people against eachother to continue their corruption and raping of America.

  • Fine.......give corporations tax breaks....and if they decide to take their manufacturing to another country, then place a tariff on their product when it comes back in. Now it makes no sense for them to take jobs elsewhere. Japan does this all the time. Protect America!

  • Lol@Boehner pretending he "regrets" doing it. "It's a bad practice. We gotta stop this", while keeping a straight face and not expressing any actual sorrow in his facial expression. You can TELL he didn't care how ridiculous it was or a violation of ethics.

  • Superabound1013, read usa-federal-state-company-tax.­ you may learn something. I find that highly unlikely

  • Comment removed

  • @Superabound1013, what ever you say Shit for Brains. It is quite obvious you never ran a business or worked for a large corporation. Typical 20 something still living with mommy & daddy. Get a Real Job and then comment.

  • @Superabound1013,such a Libtard. Corporations pay 37% corporate tax you fool. Why do you think all corporations are moving to china? NO tax you ass. Isnt Bill Gates one of the "greedy Rich."

  • Where's the job plan Uncle Boner??

  • get this fellow OUT

  • Where's the tears Johnny? You'll cry up every time you utter the words "American dream" or think about gradeschool kids? But when you reflect on your own bone-headed disgusting moves like this...nothing?

    "Eh...my bad."

    It's really ironic this guy cries about the american dream but clams up when talking about the time he practically pulled his pants down and took a big shit all over that very dream.

  • After watching this, and knowing what that fucking douche bag did to bribe other party members, it makes me sick to my stomach to see him as Speaker of the House now. It's just a damn shame.

  • in john's defense, he was really drunk at the time.

  • @lopside0 - LOL!!!

  • Some people would question this coming statement, and some would call me mentally insane; however I firmly believe people like this should be killed.

  • what a douch!

  • He said

    "I did it on the house floor which I regret, should not have done.

    it's not a violation of the house rules. uh but it's a pratice that's

    gone on here for a long time. That we're trying to stop and I know

    I'll never do it again." Rep. John Boehner

  • How old is that video?! The only date mentioned is 1994 and Boehner is young in it.

  • This sellout tool Boehner, is conspiring with a few sellout buddies of his, to keep Ron Paul from becoming chairman of the house subcommittee for domestic monetary policy. Once scum, always scum.

  • One comment seems to suggest that its fine for Boehner to hand out bribes because a democrat would have done the same thing.

  • Nancy Pelosi's ass would make Boehner a good Sunday Face!!!

  • Now we just need to repeal the healthcare bill and we'll have everyone paying for cancer.

  • We the corporations of the Divided States, in order to prevent a more perfect Union, purchase justice, insure domestic turmoil, control the common defense, eliminate general welfare, and secure the curse of Corporatism to only ourselves and only our chosen children, do ordain and mandate this News Corporation bylaw for the Divided States of America.

  • LOL - so Obama's never taken a Wall Street check huh?

  • crooked crooked crooked.

  • Woo hoo! Boehner is going to take our country back from Obama\!!

    HOORAY FOR THE UNITED STATES OF CORPORATE AMERICA!

  • Comment removed

  • Here's a crazy idea... lets unite and create a fund called "The American Peoples fund" load it with a shitload of cash and lobby congress and have these greedy cocksuckers work for us like they are suppose to do in the first place.

  • @subliminalpain Yeah that is a crazy idea, considering the American people has been bled dry already and has no money left. A small group of corporate billionaires can easily out fund the entire american population, thanks to the conservative supreme court decision for Citzens United.

  • John Boehner is now third in line for the presidency.

  • Remember this when you vote tomorrow, Ohioans.

  • John Boehner is a blazing hypocrite, I don't trust that he wipes his ass if he told me he does. I also want to know why this guy is not in a federal prison for treasonous acts against Americans.

  • this doesnt surprise me, google the city of Bell in LOs angles county in calif and ALL THE CITY COUNCIL SWANDER MILLIONS AND THE LAST ONE POSTED BAIL THIS MORNING AND HE WAS IN JAIL SINCE SEPT HAHAHA THEY DERSEVE TO BE SHAKLED IN THE TOWN SQUARED AND LET PEPLE PISS AND SPIT ON THEM

  • He admits being a douche. How quaint.

  • Vote Republican and Boehner gets to be 2 steps away from the President's office as Speaker of the House.

  • Do we really WONDER why John Boehner met with Wall Street execs as he battled to prevent Wall Street Reform?

    Do we have to wonder which party is getting foreign corporate campaign funds funneled through the Chamber of Commerce? Yes. Republicans. Probably to help keep those jobs overseas.

    Do we wonder why Republicans protect big insurance and BP?

    Republicans serve the corporate elite and could give a rip about the middle-class and the poor. VOTE DEMOCRAT!

  • @demmmmm1 vote democrat...but be watchful of the "blue dog democrats" who are basically republicans.....and pretending to be democrats. Just as corporate backing as republicans.

  • @boorens18 True. Any Democrat is better than a Republican, though. At least you know they have some compassion.

  • the number of lobbyists and spending, schmoozing big industry has in congress is DISPICIBLE.

  • Tobacco is subsidized? WTH.

  • @donalan9 Oil companies are subsidized also. You know....the same companies that are making record profits. More than any company in history. Why on earth would our gov't SUBSIDIZE them?

  • John Boehner gives me a Boner

  • Republicans are the worst crooks of politics.

  • @vgcq02 actually politicians are the worst crooks of politics lol its not like any particular party makes a person good or bad. definately doesnt make a person good apperantly. 

  • WTF! How is the orange oompa loompa not in jail?!?!?!

  • Folks, recently this video has gotten a lot of traffic. Where did you hear about it?

  • @MCPetruk Reddit

  • @MCPetruk fark.com

  • @MCPetruk what difference does it make? I'm spreading this around like a virus. 

  • GOP just doesn't care about covering up their corruption anymore. It's so rampant within the Republican Party, they all see it as the norm.

  • OUR Government is a Self Serving Crock of Deep Shit. Fuck ALL of the Mother Fuckers. We the People need to take OUR Country Back Back from these Blatant in Our Face Crooks. These Bastards are fucking Screwing us ALL and will keep on doing it until we FIGHT BACK. REVOLUTION is the ONLY WAY. F U C K T H E M

  • This happened in 2009. I don't remember seeing anything about this on the news. Boehner should go to jail.

  • @Madoculos He actually handed out checks from the tobacco industry for certain years. The first public debut was in 1995 when he was caught doing this on the House Floor.

  • WAHH TOBACCO

  • Whenever any form of Government becomes destructive, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government.

    -The Declaration of Independence

  • This video makes me loose hope in America...

  • Funny how now Boehner wants to stop that practice after he was caught doing it. The fucker should be in jail.

  • Imagine ANOTHER RepubliCON handing out bribes.....it explains their total IRRELEVANCY in National Govt!

    "Wet-Brain Boehner" needs to cut DOWN on the alcohol along with the embarrassing PURPLE Face-Tan Spray.

  • @mavrek47 still smoking that obama crack ahh it makes the pain of reality go away show shine boy has just about wrecked america ,, good job obangi

  • @why760nitro Blaming solely Obama is a crock; this started with a pre-Alzheimers B-movie actor, maybe even earlier. I'm no fan of O, he's basically Bush with better speeches, but let's not lose sight of the big picture here.

  • Largent is a pussy. He should have come clean and spilled the beans on the floor of the House.

  • John Boehner is a maggot. There's no doubt about it.

  • It's a shame the ONLY person RepubliCONs have to show-off on the National Political Scene Today is Rep Wet-Brain (Agent-Orange) Boehner.

  • @mavrek47

    i wish agent orange would explain why his skin is orange.

    agent orange needs to be booted out of office.

  • @astraia1x Maybe his orange skin is jaundice due to his rampant alcohol abuse.

  • Guess the HELL NO was not part of Boehner's vocabulary at the time he passed out those checks. Who gives a damn that he admitted it that still does not change the fact that he did it. Republicans are not for us working people and HELL NO they are not for the unemployed either so you tell me who are they for? Its time for him to leave Washington now report that on fixed news.

  • Just because it happens, does not excuse your behavior!!!!!

  • Why is this shocking? Corporations have been running this country for several years...everybody knows this unless they've been watching prime time tv all their lives.

  • Rep. Boehne frequently...so what that his prerogative

  • john....keep on smoking, PLEASE

  • Im tired with these stoopid no party fucking war mongers republicans, the country cant even move forward for these idiots of conservative values bullshit yall need to get yall stoopid act together the party is being run by radio talk nonsense everybody think no better than the other one fuck yall

  • And Boehner a smoker, go figure.

  • Boehner: "I did it, but we've got to stop it! It's a bad practice!"

    Reminds me of the classic "Stop me before I kill again!"

    If this doof hadn't been caught at it, I have no doubt that he wouldn't think it was such a bad practice at all -- after all, it results in campaign funds for him, and a more corrupt government -- for US! Win --win! (Or not.)

  • Boehner feels that tobacco taxes hurt the lower and middle class people , therefore does not want the taxing on it. Passing out the checks were a bad move on hi part and he admitted so. At least he is one to admit when he does wrong, unlike most others that play the blame game.

  • REAL RepubliCON STIMULUS:

    ~ CRAIG: A return foot-tapping under mens room stalls

    ~ LIMBAUGH: Blanket-free LIFE prescription for Oxy-Contin

    ~ W & SCARAH FAILIN: Each want 1% of Scare-Crow's Brain

    ~ COULTER: Get Adams Apple Removed

    ~ CHENEY: Keep Unilateral Contracts & Face Shootings Legal

    ~ NITT-WITT-MITT ROMNEY: Continue flip-flopping

    ~ FOLEY: Return e-mails from teen boys

    ~ HAGGARD: A male hooker who won't kiss & tell about Sex & Meth

    GOP GOAL: LOSE MANY more Senate & House Seats! ~J. Boehner

  • Absolutely disgusting Boehner's behavior. Why didn't this make mainstream news?

  • Um are you stupid? He wasn't passing out coupons, he was passing out CHECKS. If it had been a Democrat you would have been all over them.

  • i agree now. I thought it was cigerette coupons. At least he did say it was wrong and he wouldn't do it again. My bad. He was wrong. I am really disappointed in him over this one. I never knew he would do something like this. But Obama has had to say many things he did was wrong and still won! But yes, had he had been a dem. OR Rep. i would have been all over him had I really paid attention. I'll know next time not to speak unless I know the whole story:(

  • Boner's a pig

  • Christofascist treason and that god damned fucking traitor is still free, walking among the rest of us.

  • yo, dude. Chill.

  • Speaking of smoking, Boehner looks like he smokes something himself (or perhaps he wears contact lenses). One thing's for sure, I don't trust him for a moment.
