Boehner gets emotional in Golf Channel interview (video)
The Hill ^ | 07/27/15 | Judy Kutz

Even golfing can be a tearjerker of a subject for Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), who’s known for frequently dispensing waterworks.

“I wanted to make sure that every kid had the same chance I did — an opportunity,” Boehner, with tears filling his eyes, says in a promotional spot for The Golf Channel show, “Feherty.”

Another clip from the program, which airs Aug. 3., shows Boehner telling host David Feherty about a photo of him and some companions that sits in his office, saying, “The three of us are talking about how easily we turn to tears.”

Boehner — who’s gotten misty-eyed at everything from State of the Union addresses to statue unveilings — said in a 2010 interview that he’s a “pretty emotional guy.”

— This story was updated at 5:40 a.m.

Touching.

Is that not what his Master, the Caliph Obama,
would say?

No wonder Benghazi and the IRS abuses are covered
up for another week.

Boehner has empathy for everyone except conservatives in his own party.

His greatest empathy is toward K-Street.

Doesn’t it have something to do with Texas’ gazillion representatives in the house. Kind of like the dems and Nancy Polousy.

Boehner’s crying is an obvious symptom of serious alcoholism.

....

Maybe alcohol and doesn’t get along with the orange tanning cream.

I have NEVER cried over golf. Screams, yelled, and cursed sure. But cried?! If only Bone-head showed this much passion in fighting Obama.

Bonehead is an empty headed boozer with nothing but love for the communists Democrats. King Obama is his hero.

Not a good idea to mix those with alcohol.
