John Boehner Cracks a Weiner Joke

I am sure Boehner's name has caused him to sure from jokes in the past. Unlike Boehner, Weiner has earned his ridicule.

U.S. House Speaker John Boehner (BAY'-nur) drew laughs from an audience at Ohio State University with a joke about the name of a colleague involved in a scandal over lewd photos.

Boehner said Sunday during a commencement speech at Ohio Stadium that his own last name has been pronounced to rhyme with the words honor and leaner and even "boner."

Then he said: "Thank God it's not Weiner."
