Looking Up John Boehner in the Library of Congress

John Boehner is cast as one of the leaders in the United States and I thought I would take a look to see what he has done to earn that status by reviewing his authorship of legislation in Congress.  This information is available in the Library of Congress.  (Congress.gov:  Legislation Sponsored or Cosponsored by John A. Boehner)

Here are some representative pieces of legislation for which we can thank John Boehner of Ohio:

H.R.6604 — 112th Congress (2011-2012)

To designate the federal building currently known as Federal Office Building 8, located at 200 C Street Southwest in the District of Columbia, as the "Thomas P. O'Neill, Jr. Federal Building".

H.Res.784 — 112th Congress (2011-2012)

Celebrating the life and achievements of Neil A. Armstrong, a United States patriot who humbly and selflessly served his country, State, and community as a naval aviator, test pilot, astronaut...

H.Res.292 — 112th Congress (2011-2012)

Declaring that the President shall not deploy, establish, or maintain the presence of units and members of the United States Armed Forces on the ground in Libya, and for other purposes.

H.R.1815 — 112th Congress (2011-2012)

Lena Horne Recognition Act

H.R.6534 — 111th Congress (2009-2010)

National Baseball Hall of Fame Commemorative Coin Act

It goes on and on with one inconsequential piece of crap after the other.  From this it becomes clear that Boehner did not achieve his position of leadership through innovative introduction of legislation but rather, as shown previously in his dispensing of checks in the Senate from the tobacco lobbies, he has achieved leadership through bribery and manipulation.
