Video: Boehner tells reporter to ‘get a brush’
U.S. Rep. John Boehner, R-West Chester, had some fun with reporters during a press conference on Thursday, April 3.
The House Minority Leader told a reporter to “do something with that hair of yours.” He later told the reporter to “get a brush, would ya?”
According to CNN, the reporter took the joke lightly and shot back, “I’ll get a haircut if you pay for it.”
Boehner then joked about another reporter’s lack of hair and a female reporter’s ponytail. He referred to her hair as “what’s wadded up in the back of your head?”
Obviously, there’s no news here, but the video is fun to watch.

I lived in John Boehner’s district for over 5 years. In several of those years, I asked for an appointment with the Congressman when he was in the district. I was told if I wanted to see him about an issue, I would have to see him in Washington. The first time this happened, I thought it was a joke; after the fourth request, it became obvious this was a brush-off of constituents.
