During John Boehner's weekly press conference on Thursday, MSNBC's Luke Russert took advantage of the recent raucous speaker election to praise the Ohio Republican as “one of the most conservative members” of the House of Representatives “during the last 20 years.”

“I tell you what pains me the most is when they describe me as ‘the establishment,'” the newly re-elected speaker stated. “Now, I’m the most anti-establishment speaker we have ever had.”

Boehner then went on to list what he considered his conservative credentials:

Conservative?

Was there a bill to remove ObamaCARE this week?
to stop Amnesty this week?

NO. Only Boehners attacks on Conservatives.

The GOP is CINO.

He is a short term small “c” conservative in that he is trying to conserve whatever it is the liberals have put in place.

Boner’s FB page says the same. Check out the Speakers FB page and look at the comments.

“Hey, Luke. John Boehner here.”

“Hi John, how’s it going?”

“Well, I’m taking some flack and need you to run a little cover for me.”

“Sure. What’s the angle?”

“Run a story that I’m conservative. Way conservative.”

“John, that’s a bit much. That would ruin our credibility.”

“Luke. Credibility...?”

“Right, John. I’ll run a piece asap.”

MSNBC (pronounced: eh'mess'en-be-cee)

1. The state of mind of total psychosis, esp. as regards news reporting 
and political commentary.

2. To be clinically insane, yet to be entrusted with the delivery of news copy.

3. The act of seeing racism in all matters, regardless of actual presence.

(ex. "Did you see that reporter? He went all MSNBC on that witness!")

(syn: insanity, madness, moonbattery, bias, unhinged)

(ant: sane, unbiased, sober)

Hopefully everyone on the planet knows by now that MSNBC is the Green (Bolshevik) Party propaganda outlet.

On the bright side, it was on PMSNBC, so nobody heard it.

The push is to paint liberal squishes like Boehner as conservative, and real conservatives as terrorist extremists.
