Hi folks - Just wanted to highlight Media Matters Action Network's "Branding
Boehner" messaging memo we put out today.  http://bit.ly/a7ESK4

Accompanying that, we sent out research on his ties to special interests &
his ultra-exclusive, lobbyist packed, all-male golf club.
The Real Driving Force Behind Boehner And The GOP: Special Interests And
Lobbyists <http://politicalcorrection.org/factcheck/201010060002>

Boehner-led Republicans have proven time and time again that their only
agenda is to act on behalf of lobbyists, big corporations and the same
special interest groups and billionaires pouring millions of dollars into
their campaigns — all at the expense of the American people. If elected,
Boehner and the GOP would not only return power to big business and let
lobbyists write the rules again, they would waste precious time and
resources by cooking up subpoenas and investigations, rather than serving
the national interest. http://politicalcorrection.org/factcheck/201010060002
 Rep. Boehner's "Backroom Deals" Will Shut Women
Out<http://politicalcorrection.org/blog/201010060003>

House Minority Leader (and future Speaker of the House if Republicans get
their way) John Boehner (R-OH) has been railing against "backroom deals" for
nearly two years. But Boehner, with his paranoid shrieks about deals made
"behind closed doors," doesn't have much of a leg to stand on.  Because, if
he were to become Speaker, John Boehner would continue his own particular
brand of backroom dealing. Only instead of a "backroom," it's a golf course.
And instead of being "behind closed doors," it excludes women — not just
from playing but, with few exceptions, from even stepping foot on the
premises. Boehner's golf course of choice when he's in Washington, DC is the
Burning Tree<http://politicalcorrection.org/rd?to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.democracynow.org%2F2006%2F2%2F3%2Fheadlines>course
in Bethesda, MD.  A mere $75,000 initiation fee and $500 in monthly
dues pays for John Boehner to golf in an estrogen-free environment.
