Busting Boehner's bawls
New York Post ^ | January 10, 2011 | Andrea Peyser

Posted on 01/10/2011 11:46:34 AM PST by EveningStar

Will John Boehner please man up?

Liberals and adver tisements for erectile dysfunction make the dubious claim that real men cry. But in the case of the bawling Mr. Boehner, tearing up publicly has transformed from a risky quirk of human nature into an extroverted piece of slobbering, nose-dripping, three-hanky theater.

I agree

I am starting to wonder about his mental state

THIS IS WHY LIBTARDS WANT YOU TO CRY - so they can mock you

Some kind of statement from a nitwit who’s never had an orgasm!

And I wonder about yours, repeating the libtard mantra. Who cares if he cries? Will he be a good speaker? Who wouldn’t cry stepping into pelosi’s mess?

This is just along the same lines of the left, on the one hand, “celebrating” homosexuality,
and on the other, trying to “out” politically conservative politicians as homos (as if they thought it a bad thing).

Someone really needs to talk to this guy. Maybe get him on some testosterone. Not kidding. You don’t cry at everything. Please someone close to him, tell him to stop doing this at the drop of a damn hat or anytime anything happens, good or bad. Enough. We are not metrosexual. It is embarrassing. Show some judgment for God’s sake and if you’re going to cry, cry sparingly. Or remain stoic and don’t crack your voice, be a freaking man.

I just can’t respect a guy who cries at everything. Dammit. Just dammit. Then he cencelled all buisness this week like a freaking liberal would. This is not a powerful leader pushing people to move forward and move on as their colleague would want them to. “No Balls” Boehner looks like it will be an accurate nickname for him.

Well, he's not corrupt, doesn't take earmarks and is free from scandal.

They had to go after him for something.

He doesn't cry because he's under personal attack or from personal weakness.

Every single time he cries it's due to patriotism and the state of the Republic.

But you just knew the right would eat their own.

That dog don't hunt, FRiend. There are a *lot* of us staunch conservatives who don't think a lot of either Boner or his silly blubbering.

Will he be a good speaker?

Only time will tell, but I have my doubts. His performance on selecting committee chairs sure has me wondering about his fiscal bona fides.

Look, Nancy Pelosi could put your eyes out throwing her hands around in virtually EVERY speaking appearance. It is a part of her persona and general cardiac thought process. The hand gestures look like an EKG gone bad, but never a word from the Left.

Now comes Boehner with a nervous tic of sorts, anxiety if you will, which is just as difficult to watch as Pelosi, but hardly a factor over which we should join hand with the enemy to mock, marginalize and try to stone in an obvious hard ball play to squash his credibility and influence, even before he gets started. How dumb can we be?

His tears are as undignified as they are unseemly. The wet stuff may be viewed on the world stage as a sign of weakness or lack of seriousness.

I've not seen Barry cry, but the world views him as about as weak as they come.

Boehner needs counseling for the crying issue. It makes him AND us look weak. We need a leader who will be firm and lead...we got him the votes in November, and expect him to be a leader. If he can't do the job, then someone else must be found to do it.

It's not that he cries. It's that he cries at everything.

I agree. I too am an emotional person and tear up when I wish I didn't. Love of Country is something that will get me every time, the National Anthem, Pledge of Allegiance and seeing fighter jets do a fly-by bring tears. I love that he shows his emotions, it makes me feel like he is real and understands the grave situation we face.
