Oh, Boehner. You're right..."my way or the highway" rhetoric has NO place in politics.

Oh, WAIT...you were talking about OBAMA's "my way or the highway" rhetoric.

I got confused for a minute.

For those of you asking "WTF," this is in reference to a clip of Boehner that was just played on MSNBC, saying that the way to solve the payroll tax impasse is to not use "my way or the highway" rhetoric.

Apparently 8 years of that kind of rhetoric under Bush wasn't enough to make Boner cry.
