Boyda has a George H.W. Bush moment

As if the first few months in office haven’t been eventful enough for Rep. Nancy Boyda, D-Topeka, with a trip to Iraq and taking flak for some defense-related comments and votes, she recently tossed her cookies in a wastebasket during a meeting in her D.C. office with some Lawrence firefighters. Fortunately, two were also emergency medical technicians, who helped Boyda. She later went to a hospital and learned she has gallstones; she’ll have surgery during Congress’ Easter recess. "It was more embarrassing than anything else," said Shanan Guinn, Boyda’s chief of staff.
