Why does Boehner cry so much?

[MoonRiver]

He's crying right now talking about 9/11. Of course it is appropriate today, but he seems to cry at the drop of a hat. Weird.

1. If I were him, I would cry all the time

[barbtries]

2. because he's drunk?

that's what it looks like to me.

[MoonRiver]

3. He does always sound a little drunk.

Could just be the sound of him gulping down tears though.

10. +13,174

That was my first thought


add: the Weeping Boner

[FSogol]

4. He's a weepy drunk. n/t

[porphyrian]

5. Because the bullshit neocon paradigm is crumbling and Americans are waking up to its lies? n/t

6. Because he's a candy ass little weenie.

8. If Nancy Pelosi, or any other woman legislater, cried like Boehner, they

would be deemed too emotional and unfit for office. I can't believe he gets away with it.

13. And they would never let up for a moment.

Once they see something they perceive as a weak point the RWingnuts and the
RW Media Hatemongers keep snipping at it until the subject of their attack resigns
or refuses to run for re election. I've never seen such hypocrites in my entire life.

7. I wonder MORE

Why,being the miserable son of a bitch Boehner is,he doesn't cry more.....

[Brother Buzz]

9. I'm not a doctor nor do I play one on TV but it ain't rocket surgery

It's alcohol related. The jury is still out whether it's psychological of physiological.

11. Because he thought when they made him Speaker they would give him power

wrong, wrong, wrong.

12. No clue.

Most men are taught, often through taunting/etc, to not show weakness/emotion and crying isn't acceptable, maybe he wasn't.

I tended to think he might have been doing it to weaken the attacks/pressure on him but who knows.

15. He has lots of feelings.

Does anybody remember the scene in Mean Girls where they are doing the team building exercise in the gym and the strange girl gets up all crying and Tina Fey says, "You don't go to school here, who are you?" The girl responds, "I just have a lot of feelings."

John Boehner is that girl. Showing up where he doesn't belong to display his feelings.

16. Was he abused, neglected or teased?

I definitely sense a psychological disorder. From where it stems is anybody's guess.
