During brief remarks before President Obama’s meeting with Congressional leaders at the White house today, he reminded the press that tomorrow was Speaker John Boehner’s birthday.

“We’re not going to embarrass him with a cake, because we didn’t know how many candles were needed.” Obama added.

“Yeah right,” Boehner cracked.
