John Boehner "Weeper of the House"

[srkruzich]

Jarhead. I understood what you said. Boehner's crying was nothing near someone crying for their boys KIA. I would never slight your beloved Scar from the Vietnam era.  I would say that my Scar is bigger(caliber) than yours and I have used mine more recently than you probably have. All teasing aside on my part. Maybe I need to talk to Dr. Kamber too.  What happened to the good ol days when a man could just stuff down his feelings, without crying, until he dropped dead from a heart attack caused by stress and whiskey.

Problem is sometimes you don't drop dead.  6 heart attacks n counting.....and i don't get benefit of whiskey anymore.

Did you see it he couldn't get through his induction as Speaker of the House without crying and wiping his nose with with his handkerchief. Much of what Dariagirl, Dania  and I have posted on this has been mostly tongue in cheeck. I just can't understand why we can't find someone in Politics that doesn't make a great character for Saturday Night Live. (Pelosi, Palin, Boehner). I do like what he said today in his speech, but I am very skeptical that things will change. If my Republican party does not use this and actually accomplish some major things, we get Obama for another 4 years. ( I still can't figure out how he beat the Clinton machine.) That is the end of the Weeper of the House thread as far as I am concerned.

LMAO Jar! I think it's very admirable that Boehner isn't afraid to show his emotions at being 3rd in command! I'd cry too! I think he's a great person and his life story is very uplifting and inspiring! So, that would be John Boehner SPEAKER of the House!--Jen

Agree.  Much rather have him than others.
