John Boehner

The current minority leader of the US House of Representatives. AKA Mr. No. Any concept promoted by the opposition party, regardless of potential merit, is consistently deemed by Boehner as a non-starter. Regardless of the initiative, Boehner's alternate solution is always "tax cut". His apparent contributions regarding any useful initiatives within government are obscure or non-existent to date. Unless taking up space, breathing, and saying "no" qualify as a useful contributions...he may be at least holding his own.
