3. Here's how I think this went...

OBAMA: Hey, John. Just saw the election results. I'd like to offer my congratulations to you. Looks like it's a big night for you.

BOEHNER: Yeah I've got some martinis 'n stuff. We're celebratin'.

OBAMA: Right. Say, John, I believe strongly in creating a better future for America, and I do hope in the future we can work together to make that happen.

BOEHNER: Oh, yeah. Well, we're gonna need to talk in the future. But this...

OBAMA: John? John? Are you still there?

BOEHNER: Oh my gah... (sniffles)

OBAMA: Hey, man. Are you okay?

BOEHNER: I jus' - I just can't believe it.

OBAMA: Believe what, John?

BOEHNER: I now get to - I now get to -

OBAMA: C'mon, John, spit it out.

BOEHNER: The tanning tax (sobbing!) I get to repeal the tanning tax!

OBAMA: Yeah. Okay. We'll talk about that one later, okay?

BOEHNER: (sobbing) Need another martini. Amber? Where's Amber. Oh, HELLO, AMBER!
