Republican bigwig John Boehner (that’s “Baner” to you) floats an idea that can’t be helped by any amount of PR carefulness. How will tea partiers respond?:
In response to a question from TPMDC, House Minority Leader John Boehner backed Tom Donohue, President of the Chamber of Commerce, in saying taxpayers should help pick up the tab [for the British Petroleum oil gusher].
“I think the people responsible in the oil spill–BP and the federal government–should take full responsibility for what’s happening there.”
Good luck with that one. Brain circuits may fry in certain quarters.
UPDATE: Backpedal has commenced.
