Who is John Boehner?

Republicans in the House have a new Majority Leader, John Boehner. He has been touted as a reform candidate, but I don't want to hear about it.

In 1995, Boehner handed out campaign checks from the tobacco industry to members on the House floor at a time when lawmakers were considering eliminating a tobacco subsidy.

The End.

UPDATE: "House Republicans [took] a mulligan on the first ballot for Majority Leader [after] the first count showed more votes cast than Republicans present at the Conference meeting."

Bwahahahaha! What a bunch of crooks.
