(NEWSER) – Alaska Natives are certainly pleased that the mountain formerly known as McKinley is now officially Denali, the name people who, say, live in Alaska have called it for years. But those in Ohio, the home state of 25th president William McKinley, are peeved their man has lost the honor.
John
Boehner says he is "deeply disappointed," Republican Sen.
Rob Portman says it
is "yet another example of the President going around Congress,"
and Republican Rep. Bob Gibbs slams it as a "political stunt"
that's "insulting to all Ohioans," reports Fox
News. Gibbs, who says he will "determine what can be done to
prevent this action," argues the mountain can only be renamed
with an act of Congress since a law was passed naming the peak Mount
McKinley in 1917.
