President Obama used use his executive prerogative to change the official name of Mount McKinley to Denali, the native American name for the mountain. Much more appropriate, IMO, and widely popular in Alaska. Not so much in Ohio, McKinley' home state and widely known for it's mountain ranges. Poor Mr. Boehner who is offended by changing the name of the continent's highest mountain from that of a do-nothing lackluster politician from Ohio who never saw the mountain and probably cared little about it. About time, I'd say, but I suppose Congress will turn this into a big issue and debate it for months while the real business of the country continues to languish

Boehner would be lucky to have a bar stool named after him.
