From John Boehner with tears.
​We spoke too soon.

Speaker John Boehner prepared for his tissue call yesterday and addressed the house as it debated over the resolution slated to honor the victims of the mass murder in Tucson.

"Look at Tucson right now and you will be reminded that America's most plentiful source of strength is her people," said Boehner between tears. "No act, no matter how heinous, will stop us from doing our duty and being among the people we serve."

Cue the waterworks.

I'd be very suspicious of a grown man crying so much in public. I would imaging that he saves the majority of his tears for his private life and the examples of this emotional outbursts are "rare"? I can just imagine what an emotional mess he is when he's in private. I'm guessing there's some underlying emotional distress issues involved here that would require a 72 hour hold by some mental institution needed.

I've not seen the women of the congress cry this much!!!
