Names for Boehner & McConnell
Since petty name-calling is obviously a successful strategy in American politics, I think we Democrats need to find appropriate names for the incoming Teapublican congressional leadership. John Boehner is the "Tan Man", but we need a name for Mitch McConnell.

Some have said that McConnell looks like Porky Pig, although I would hate to insult the classic cartoon character by equating him to Mitch McConnell. So how about "DORKY PIG". Looking at McConnell, I think the name's a good fit.

2. McConnell is "The Turtle"
"Boner" is just fine for the speaker.

13. I was just gonna say 'Chinless'
If only "Boner"- "the Tan Man"- had a mustache, we could call him "Porno" (Or maybe "Speedo", or "the Swingster"...)
