As he launched into his regular refrain about the Democrats' budget, saying it "spends too much, it taxes too much, and it borrows too much", he stopped himself — trying to hold back laughter during his own opening comments.
He quickly singled out a young print reporter, telling him, "You really do need to do something with that hair of yours." As reporters laughed, he joked, "I couldn't wait any longer."
He went on to finish his opening comments, but before calling on the same reporter, he teased, "Get a brush, would ya?"
The reporter had good sense of humor about the crack from the Ohio Republican, and shot back, "I'll get a haircut if you pay for it."
When Boehner called on the next reporter, he referred to him as "the bald guy."
But Boehner didn't confine his critique to male members of the Capitol press corps. When a female reporter, wearing her long hair pulled back, prefaced her question by joking that she hoped her hair was ok, Boehner couldn't resist: "You mean what's wadded up in the back of your head?"
Some reporters chuckled, but others thought the GOP leader was being a little harsh.
Boehner continued his hair assessment, saying, "It looks so nice hanging down.
It looks like you got up a little late and decided that, you know, I just wadded up the back. For those of you that don't know about me and ponytails, males get it — males get it just as bad as females."
He then apologized to the reporter, joking "you started it," and let her ask her question on the budget.
Read on.

And this is coming from the Congressional wingnut representing Ohio to joke on reporters' hair. Now can we talk about Boner's fake tan, the tanning spray can sprayed on his face and the April Fool's joke of a budgetless budget plan revealed and how The Party of No's budget bill was killed in the House this week?

Be careful what you say it can come back on you. Boner Boy might think he's all that now but after he loses the election it's fine it hard to pay for that facf hair and tan. It's always fun to watch a person who isn't use to having things talk about others. Soon we'll see Boner boy on a street corner asking for change and then see who's laughing.
What an ass. Yeah Jackie, it does look like Boner Boy hits the tanning booth.
Wonder how much this arsehat pays for his haircuts? He looks like an Oompa-Loompa with that fake tan.
Perhaps those young reporters ought to bust a move and find out about his cuts.
Bush liked to degrade and belittle the press too when he was in office. Must make them feel more powerful and it keeps the reporters from asking any tough questions.
"Oompa-Loompa" lol Sounds like Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory. If Boner is not re-elected again in Ohio, tanning spray can is the only thing he will afford. Let's hope so.
