Speaker Boehner Lights the 2012 U.S. Christmas Capitol Tree

"The birth of Christ fulfilled a prophecy of salvation, giving a weary world cause to rejoice. In that spirit, we will bring light to the tree that flourishes as a symbol of everlasting life. And in turn, this tree will bring light to us, opening our hearts a little more to the needs of our neighbors and the covenants we have made with one another."

Merry Christmas, Mr. Speaker! Hope you have a good one and are actually able to enjoy your Christmas with all those you care about, instead of being stuck in DC with a group of people ready to do harm to America and blame you for the whole thing!

Boehner, you are a big reason I'll never give to the GOP again and I'll be re-registering independent. Thanks a lot, you weasel. Are you missing your pants? I think Harry Reid is wearing them.

[Scott Lawson]

What you just said is nowhere near a rational thought.
