You’re comparing Bush’s reaction to the troops that he sent to fight a war to Boehner tearing up when his fellow DC pols give him a cheer?

Just showing that real men DO cry when shown appreciation for the stresses they carry.

Yes, Iraq was a war. However, make no mistake in thinking that these budget debates don't signify a HUGE fight. Ensuring our economic freedom going forward is a major task. Resonsibility for keeping us from tipping toward economic servitude is a huge load which Boehner carries and which the GOP House apparently appreciates.

I don't think it a travesty for Boehner to shed a few tears for the show of appreciation unlike so many of the misguided on FR.

I don’t remember hearing about Patton boo-hooing and he had a lot more stresses than Boohoo-ner. The guy doesn’t have what it takes. Once again, we are stuck with milquetoast when we need nads of steel. Get the tear ducts under control or hand over it over to a real man.

OK, then. You and the Girly Men like Boehner can quibble about a symbolic $60 billion or so from an already late budget.

Meanwhile, I’ll continue to be an advocate for Paul Ryan, who at least can put forth a plan for the future without crying about it.
