Where The Boner got his speaking style
Can we have a little humor please? Boner's mentor, the late great Foster Brooks:

2. I was just thinking of Otis!
Listening to Boehner, then Haley Barbour as "Boss Hogg." What a frigging joke on us, eh?

5. What a great walk down memory lane. Did you see all the great comics?
Those were the good days.

6. It's funny I had such a crush on Johnny Carson when I was in high school
And now my teenage daughter feels the same way about Jon Stewart....kind of a similar thing!

I remember dressing up after school to look 18 to get into the Tonight Show. Nobody who's come a long since can hold a candle to him as far as on-camera chat, as far as I'm concerned!

7. I was gonna say Jim Lahey (fictional trailer park supervisor, and drunkard) from Trailer Park Boys.

Bohener and Rand Paul discuss their 2012 strategy:

But its obvious John Dunsworth (who plays Lahey) got his inspiration from Foster Brooks.
