No orange, No cry
Boehner’s blubbering again — probably because he’s super sad that he can’t control the idiotic petulant Teabillies:
According to sources inside the meeting, Boehner it happened while Boehner was speaking to the group about the latest on his negotiations with Democrats over government funding. Boehner talked about his meeting yesterday with President Obama and then, in a rousing conclusion, he thanked the House Republicans for standing by him and supporting him through these tense negotiations.
The Republican conference responded with a standing ovation for their speaker.
As you could imagine, that prompted the Speaker to cry.
“Yes,” said one person at the meeting, “He cried, but only briefly.”
So, to sum up: NANCY SMASH! and BOEHNER BLUBBER!
Hey John? You’re getting orange tanner all over the upholstery. Get your shit together.

It seems pretty clear from watching the evening news, between the Chris Christie/John Boehner twin blowjobs on ABC, which featured Jake Tapper telling us how President Obama will definitely get paid in the shutdown, but Boehner did not want to get paid, to reminding us that this is the Democrats’ fault for not passing a budget last year to the wonderful fellatios of Paul Ryan on Fox and NBC, that the media is going on a all out assault on the Democrats this time.
Don’t expect a repeat of 1995.

Would it be too elitist of me to suggest that Boehner may actually suffer from undiagnosed and untreated emotional instability? I mean, setting aside the need for attention and the desire to manipulate by whatever means possible, that is.

Someone needs to make a short clip of orange crap sloughing off of Boehner’s face as he’s bawling, with the end shot being of his true lizard countenance and an evil grin.
It would go viral in a heartbeat.

I’m from almost the exact same background as Boehner is–midwestern, blue-collar, catholic boys’ high school–and man-weeping just doesn’t cut it in that crowd.
Where did he pick up this habit?

I think this has already been (widely) suggested and there is likely some validity to the observation.

Let’s dispense with the niceties. John Boehner really IS a pussy!

If there was only something substantive to criticize Boehner for!
Seriously, who gives a fuck that he cries? He’s a lying scumbag who wants to kill your grandmother. Crying, even if he’s lying about that too, merely makes him look more human than he deserves.

@Dick Move:
I have known more than one person who cries easily. It is a part of their personality. They would cry at things that didn’t seem sad.
This doesn’t bother me.

back in the day, if Boner were a woman he would have been given a prescription for tranquilizers for his “delicate condition”… oh, and carted off to “rest up” in a sanitarium.
if Pelosi or any woman in congress cried as much as this turd, they’d be flushed during their next election.

No orange no cry. I LUVS it.
@Dick Move:
nah. He’s just a garden variety drunk.

iirc, it was also called “the vapors.” Tee hee.

Well, they can’t remove his uterus and cure his hysteria that way. Not just because he doesn’t have one but because Republicans don’t let anyone use that word.
PS. ABL I love you for this post.

@sukabi: Back in the day, they also gave hysterical women a vibrator to help her calm down. It’s the reason vibrators were invented. Ok Boehner with a vibrator, just threw up in my mouth a little. Sorry all!

they are tears of courage! tears of power, little known fact, every time sun tzu won a battle, or completed a chapter, or got a request for a rewrite from his publisher, he cried.
some lisa lisa and the cult jam dedicated to our national hero, the man who is the supernaturally complected iron eyes cody of good government.
And you, don’t you know my tears will burn the pillow
Set this place on fire ’cause I’m tired of your lies
All I needed was a simple “Hello”
But the traffic was so noisy that you could not hear my cry
Ah, I gave you my love in vain
My body never knew such pleasure
My heart never knew such pain
And you, you leave me so confused
Now I’m all cried out over you
Oh, you. All over you, oooh.
Never wanted to see things you way
I had to go astray, oh, why was I such a fool?
Now I see that the grass is greener [why oh why]
Is it too late for me to find my way home,
How could I be so wrong? [Leavin’ me all alone]
Don’t you know the heart will cause an inferno
Romance up in flames, why should I take the blame
You were the one who left me neglected [I’m so sorry]
Apology not accepted, add me to the broken hearts you collected

Too bad he doesn’t shed any tears for the American people.

@aimai: yup! remember when hillary got chocked up for a nanosecond? how long did we hear about it? crikey.
i’m not saying the man is a pussy. in the words of rosey grier, “it’s all right to cry; crying takes the sad out of you.”
but for fuck’s sake. is it necessary to cry every time someone claps for you?
and if he is a drunk, then homey needs to handle that business.

@Fucen Pneumatic Fuck Wrench Tarmal: oh snap! lisa lisa and cult jam. i went with a more hippy choice.

@Dee Loralei:
That vibrator thing is totally true. I’ll never forget learning that while researching a term paper in a women’s history class in college. I found it funny and disturbing all at once. The tool the patriarchy handed out to women who wouldn’t knuckle under to them was actually an instrument many of those women used to attain a form of self-actualization and, at least in one area of their lives, take control away from men. And putting it in the women’s own hands, so to speak.

i barely had time to edit in “sun tzu” which makes the first part make somewhat sense.

I know where his sentiments were. I just hate the idea of sullying (as opposed to Sully-ing, of course) his creation by inserting references to that lying, crying, orange mofo.
