The New York Times passed on the story (if there ever was one; Page 6 of the New York Post isn’t known as the beginning and end of truth), but evidently Boehner hasn’t been successful in making the story go away. I was recently contacted by a reporter from the National Enquirer, and now I have confirmation that their story will hit the newsstands on Thursday.

Wonder how well Boehner’s zero-tolerance pledge regarding corruption will hold up when it comes out that several hundred paper-making jobs were lost in his district and he refused to do anything about it at the same time he was sleeping with a lobbyist for the printing industry that was very happy to get their cheap paper from China.

But Michael, they won't eat crow. Boehner "made some mistakes" in his life, as we all have "sinned and fallen short," but he asked to be forgiven, and because of he is a good Catholic, and a good Christian, and a good family man, his sins are forgiven...
...so move on.

LOL, right. Actually, is in not so much about saying "I'm sorry" as it is about being accountable.
More than one ethics violation here. Sleeping with the enemy...uh, in bed with the lobbyists, has new meaning, eh?
And..being a hypocrite, as it results in major job loss within his constituency.
