"Special interests"?

John Boehner really is a piece of work. As I've been following Justin Coussoule's campaign http://www.coussouleforcongress.com/
to wrest Boehner's 8th district congressional seat from him, I've been amazed by what I see and hear from this out-of-touch doofus.
He was in fine form the other day when he said, in response to a bill intended to keep teachers and first responders on the job in states across the country, including Ohio, “The American people don’t want more Washington ‘stimulus’ spending – especially in the form of a pay-off to union bosses and liberal special interests. This stunning display of tone-deafness comes at the expense of American workers, who will be hit by another job-killing tax hike because Washington Democrats can’t kick their addiction to more government ‘stimulus’ spending. Democrats should be listening to their constituents – who are asking ‘where are the jobs?’ – instead of scampering back to Washington to push through more special interest bailouts and job-killing tax hikes."
Talk about stunning displays of tone-deafness. Boehnhead must have been listening to himself. First of all, there re no "job-killing tax hikes." LIke the "death panels" and government-funded abortions, those are a figment of either his acid-fueled hallucinations or his evil lying tongue. Second, since when is a bill designed to keep the workers who are the solid backbone of the middle class on the job "at the expense of American workers"?
What's most insulting is that he calls this essential army of of people on whose work the future and safety of our country depends "liberal special interests." (Oh, and of course, he's got to get in some union-bashing too.) This is a man whose cues and whose golf fees are coming from the wealthiest of corporate fat cats, who he apparently does NOT consider "special interests," even though they are very, very special — so much so that most of us will never cross paths with them.
The Democratic National Committee has responded to this obscene attack on some of the hardest worker and most valuable members of our workforce. Remember, Boehnhead, THEY make a fraction of what you make and they don't get to play golf 119 times a year.
