Speaking at a hastily called news conference, House Minority Leader John Boehner (pronounced BONER) revealed the long awaited Republican response to President Obama’s proposed $3.5 trillion dollar budget. “There’s not much to see yet”, said Boehner to the assembled reporters, who noted that the obviously uncomfortable frontman was holding nothing in his outstretched hand. “We call this our see-thru budget because frankly, you can see right through it… no documentation, no numbers, no charts and graphs, in short, nothing to confuse Congress or the voters.” David Flount, representing the conservative Weekly Standard, called out, “but what is your plan for the deficit? What about taxes?” Other reporters joined in with a chorus of questions as well. Boehner waved his hand dismissively, “Don’t worry about details, the bottom line is that we’ll do what we always do: make the wealthy as comfortable as possible at the expense of American workers.” He then made a show of folding up the invisible budget before tucking it under his arm and striding from the room.
