Subject: John Boehner: Weeper of the House Mon Dec 13, 2010 11:59 am
December 13, 2010]---The new Republican Speaker of the House, John BoehnerJohn Boehner, was recently dubbed "The Weeper Of The House" by, Joy Behar, one of the ladies on ABC's The View.
This was in response to Boehner's seemingly frequent teary outburst. He cried at securing the position of new House Speaker and recently cried during a 60 Minutes interview.
Head honcho, Barbara Walters even took it a step further during their hot Topics segment on Monday, saying, "John Boehner has an emotional problem." Wow!
Another argument explored by the co-hosts of The View, was if Nancy PelosiNancy Pelosi had acted like Boehner, and cried at every opportunity, what would the reaction or assessment of her, been?
So I am asking you: what do you think of John Boehner, crying constantly? Is it a sign of weakness. Instability? Emotional fragility? Or is it perfectly find for him to express himself constantly through tears?
If Nancy Pelosi had cried like an open faucet, at every turn, what would you have thought of her?
Allright, what's going on with this guy? I think his image was stronger before he began making the horrible faces that go along with his crying. I'm not one of those macho guys but neither am I a little cry baby and I don't understand where this guy is going with all this behavior. One thing is for sure, his public behavior is well orchestrated and the crying is intentional. Politicians egos are HUGE.

You're right, as usual. I'm already sick of seeing it buy as usual the media will play it up so much that everybody will be sick of it before the week is up.

At that level you would think someone would have control over their emotions! If not, he needs to get control over them because people are looking to him for some leadership, not for him to be a basket case!!! Damn politicians!!
