Comments on: John Boehner Breaks Down Again, Weeps Openly On House Floor During Iraq Debate http://thinkprogress.org/2007/05/24/boehner-weeps-again/ Thu, 26 Nov 2009 21:43:45 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: commonsensened http://thinkprogress.org/2007/05/24/boehner-weeps-again/comment-page-3/#comment-3838876 commonsensened Mon, 04 Jun 2007 18:43:48 +0000 http://thinkprogress.org/2007/05/24/boehner-weeps-again/#comment-3838876 all these comments are from more liberal boo hoo. What you people don't seem to get is the fact that this is a man that cares about our country and our troops. Was it manly? No, but then again at least he is saying what needs to be said. You liberals don't get it. If we went there for the right or wrong reasons doesn't matter anymore. We have to finish what we started or really risk our security. I think the members of my family who proudly have served their country would be ashamed of all of you. all these comments are from more liberal boo hoo.

This man (?) is so pathetic. I agree with e coli and LocalGirl that this display was alcohol-induced. We know what a CRYING JAG is.

I thought liberals whined and cried enough they knew what uncontrollable sobbing looked like. Your best response to this scenario is to make fun of his name in a middle-school way, repeatedly make mention of crocodiles, attack his appearance (he's tan, quite unlike the washed-out gothic artist freaks which comrpise much of your ranks), and then suggest he's drunk. Bravo! I defer to your knowledge of drunkeness - the Kennedys have proven your ilk has the corner on such expertise. I look forward to 2008 when all the promises of the Democratic congress are revealed to have been broken. You guys must be feeling great about that war vote yesterday and the $3.50 gas. You know, since gas was supposed to be cheap now and the war was supposed to be finishing. You call this sobbing uncontrollable?
