Boehner Cries Over Looming Shutdown


Boehner Cries Over Looming Shutdown

Sources tell ABC News that House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) thanked House Republicans for standing by him and supporting him through tense negotiations with the White House. The Republican conference responded with a standing ovation which prompted Boehner to cry.

Said one person at the meeting: "Yes. He cried, but only briefly."

24. Isn't that the truth?? If a woman Senator cried like that all the time,..

8. So crying for Bohner is like a conservative orgasm. I think I'm catching on.
How ironic.

11. Boehner's Speakership has been punctuated by a series of blunders.
His House has accomplished nothing other than hollow motions to score political points with a base that will never be happy with what he does.

He's probably going to start crying ALOT more when he realizes that he's just keeping the Speaker of the House chair warm for someone with a bit more teabagger appeal.

29. Yep

had a neighbor like that. He was an alcoholic who tried to "hide" it. Everyone knew. He would cry at the drop of the hat and over silly things. I suspect the human Cheeto is a lush.
