Weepy Boehner breaks down again on House floor

[babylonsister]

I do think he must have a few alcoholic 'belts' before he hits the floor... And isn't this this clown who claimed the dead Americans were worth the effort?

Weepy Boehner breaks down again on House floor.

Last night during the House floor debate on the Iraq redeployment legislation, House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) nearly broke down in tears. Boehner paused, choked up, and his voice wavered as he tried to get out this sentence: “For my kids and their kids, success in Iraq is critically important.”

Watch it at link~

As ThinkProgress previously noted, Boehner teared up in May and also in February during the Iraq debates.

1. The guy is unstable....nt

[LiberalFighter]

30. Keeping pushing the guy. Push him over the edge.

If he is already verifiable nuts then why haven't the GOP leadership removed him from his post?

Oh! That's right! They are all verifiable nuts.

[endarkenment]

2. "Weepy Boehner "?

OK. Those two words ought to never be next to each other outside the lounge.

[FightingIrish]

8. That was going around when I was in the Navy

[Canuckistanian]

49. Hahaha

[stimbox]

16. A weepy boner is a symptom of an STD! n/t

[mzteris]

3. I'd cry too

if I knew I was complicit in the murder of all those kids.

[Virginia Dare]

15. Me too, but we know that's not why he's crying...

he's crying because this monumental disaster that is and always will be The Iraq War will forever be hung around his party's neck.

[Bluebear]

4. Weepy boner??

[TwilightGardener]

17. Antibiotics will clear that right up.

[Virginia Dare]

19. Unless it's MRSA...n/t

[Bluebear]

26. Nooooooo

:rofl:

[bear425]

42. A DUzy for you! n/t

[Mrs. Overall]

5. "Weepy Boehner" sounds like an STD.

[PollThis]

11. Or some kind of tree.nt

[Eurobabe]

41. nah, that's called pre-ejac fluid

:rofl:

Boner better watch out or someone's gonna get knocked up.

[hlthe2b]

6. pre-senile dementia

can make for very severe emotional roller-coaster behavior, as well. No, I'm not joking about something so serious. Just a fact... Then again, he may just be exploiting for effect. :shrug:

[Virginia Dare]

18. Don't give him an out..

I don't want him to be able to plead insanity when the question is later asked of him why he sent all of those innocent men and women to their deaths unnecessarily.

[spanone]

7. no, the mounting debt and Muslim hatred for Americans will haunt your kids & grandkids

[Virginia Dare]

9. My kids are screwed because of this war bonehead,

I'm quite sure yours will benefit from your able grafting.

Bonehead missed his calling, he should be in the soaps the way he can conjure up those crocodile tears.

[FredScuttle]

10. Hey Boner!

Chopper Read says to "harden the fuck up!"

20. He should be crying about all the people who have been killed in this illegal, unnecessary war

[Bitwit1234]

21. Somebody explain..why is success important

Even if we "win" in Iraq. What is going to stop terrorist setting their sights on America. What is going to stop them from bombing and killing people all over the world.

This success crap is getting old. I think this guy must be going thru the male change of life. He cries at the drop of a hat.

[sakabatou]

22. Dr. Cox says it best

[MuseRider]

23. Now now now y'all

he is a fragile man. One who weeps when Lassie comes home. One who weeps when little Kevin is reunited with his family. He is one who thinks only of the children, they may not be the children fighting but you know, the little snowflakes that are to come. Give him a break and give the man a tissue for goodness sake. Since when do we as liberals not accept emotional fragility? After all that is our reputation, accepting and weak. Just ask Boehner, he is of the tough ones.

This guy is the biggest fake I have ever seen.

[babylonsister]

27. Boner: the investment we're making today is a small price to pay...

I know you were kidding, but I'm still not over what he said!

http://blog.cleveland.com/openers/2007/09/boehner_takes_flak_for_cnn_rem.html

BOEHNER: I think General Petraeus outlined it pretty clearly. We're making success, but we need to firm up those successes. We need to continue our effort here because, Wolf, long term the investment that we're making today will be a small price if we're able to stop al-Qaida
here, if we're able to stabilize the Middle East. It's not only going to be a small price for the near future, but think about the future for our kids and their kids. This is a very important effort on the part of the United States to secure our national interests and to secure our security interests, especially when it comes to al-Qaida, who has been our number one enemy here in Iraq.

[MuseRider]

31. It is disgusting

isn't it? Whose small price? I guarantee it is not small for the soldiers or their families. How someone can say this, especially knowing what this "war" is really about is beyond me. I agree with you but sometimes I just have to make light fun because to really stop and consider is too painful all the time and since the selection there are multiple things a day to freak about.

I hope I did not offend you by making light of this. I would understand if it did. I think we are all off and on at different times and today I can't take it. Tonight will be enough for me to be pissed about. :hi:

[babylonsister]

33. No offense taken at all! I'm such a

dweeb! When I posted this, I didn't read any double entendres at all. I need to lighten up! And yes, tonight should be interesting. :pals:

[CTyankee]

24. Did the Boehner serve in the military?

Or did he too have "other priorities"?

[sinkingfeeling]

25. Did he steal that line from Cruise's character, Sen. Irving, in "Lions for Lambs"?

[C_U_L8R]

28. He carries a slice of onion with him everywhere

just in case an opportunity to "weep" should arise

[NI4NI]

29. Seeings how the buzz word "compassionate conservative" was such a big flop,

they must be trying to replace it with "sensitive conservative".

It breaks their heart to have to vote against SCHIP, or ending the war in Iraq.

I say, "Stuff your crocodile tears, Boner! America already knows that you and your butt munchin' whiners are a pack of dirty ass diaper wearin' cry babies in the first place".

[DCKit]

32. It's not OUR fault if he invested every penny in Oil and Defense stocks.

The smart money was on alternative energy after 9/11:

If we don't need their oil, we don't buy their oil.
If we don't buy their oil, they can't fund terrorists and Islamic fundamentalists.

[OzarkDem]

34. He needs to stop the liquid lunch/dinner

Nothing worse than a melancholy drunk. Oh wait, then there's the crazed, mean, sociopathic, egotistical drunk in the White House. Yeah, that's definitely worse.

[NewJeffCT]

35. What a wimp - my 4 1/2 year old is tougher

tell your kids to suck it up, Boner.

[Swamp Rat]

36. Aww! Why the long face?

:cry:





BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

[babylonsister]

44. Bwhahaha! I love you, Swamp Rat! That is superb!

:spray: :rofl: :hug: :thumbsup:

[Swamp Rat]

45. I made it just for this thread, just for you.

;) :hug:

[babylonsister]

50. You sweetie!

Your graphics never cease to amuse me! :hi:

[lutefisk]

37. Boehner could challenge Poppy and Junior to a weep-off!

[jpak]

38. The Tammy Faye Baker wing of the GOP struts its stuff

pahthetic

[Bright Eyes]

39. He's crying over his lost majority NT

[Eurobabe]

40. Chronic Fweeper n/t

[The Backlash Cometh]

43. How old are his kids?

These fools think that if they create a Vietnam now, it will put an end to all wars in the Middle East forever.

I think there's a weepy memo going around. It must be the latest strategy. The GOPer that narrates the sports events at school got all weepy when he asked us to stand for the pledge of allegiance. He said we should put our hands over our hearts before the pledge of allegiance and think about the men and women who are sacrificing so that our kids can have the time to play sports. You could almost feel his bottom lip quiver. These people just don't think about the long-term consequences of any decision they make.

The weepy memo has been leaked!

[IronLionZion]

46. I'm sure his grandkids care so much

since they will be paying for it long after he's dead. Reagan and Bush's messes together are causing the downfall of this once-great nation. I foresee more economic crises in the near future.

[LeftishBrit]

47. Reminds me of Hilaire Belloc's Cautionary Tale about 'Lord Lundy..

Who was Too Freely Moved to Tears, and Thereby Ruined his Political Career...


A hint at harmless little jobs
Would shake him with convulsive sobs,
And as for Revelations, these
Would simply bring him to his knees
And leave him whimpering like a child.
It drove his colleagues raving wild...'

[backscatter712]

48. Is anyone falling for these crocodile tears? n/t

[quiet.american]

51. What a fool/tool he is. n/t

[AX10]

52. He should be crying for horrors that people such as he...

have brought to Iraq.

[lumpy]

53. Boehner washed out of Navy after 6 weeks during Vietnam.

http://www.mcdermottforcongress.com/boehnerfacts.aspx

Jim McDermott's take on Boehner is very interesting. Boehner is in it for Boehner, always.

[bluestateguy]

54. Now that's not funny! Right now John Boehner is at home crying like a little girl!

[fascisthunter]

55. Bad Acting.... (nt)

[TheCentepedeShoes]

56. His cafeteria jello too runny? n/t

[WinkyDink]

57. “For my kids and their kids, success in Iraq is critically important”.... SO THEY DON'T GO.

The "rest of the story."

[rucky]

59. "For my kids their their kids...

we need to kill more Iraqi kids."

[Solly Mack]

58. You know, his kids just don't come to mind when I think of Iraq

I can't imagine why....

[ProSense]

60. What's wrong with that guy?

It's the weepy version of the hissy fit.
