Boehner: Let Them Eat Coal

Nice: with the U.S. government on the verge of a shutdown, John Boehner decided to spend his time last night having dinner with...coal executives. Politico:

SPOTTED, last night at The Greenbrier, in White Sulphur Springs, W.Va.: Speaker Boehner, speaking at The Rodeo, a dinner with coal producers, hosted by CSX, that is a 92-year-old tradition. After a Playbooker SPOTTED the Speaker, his office told us: “To honor a previous commitment, the Speaker flew up, gave remarks, and immediately came back to Washington.”
