Soon to be Speaker of the House John Boehner’s interview on 60 Minutes where he cried yet again provided plenty of fodder for the liberal ladies of The View.
Personally I wish that Boehner would turn off the faucets but for some men controlling their emotions on certain subjects can be difficult and that doesn’t make them any less manly or less of a leader in my opinion.
But for Walters to say that Boehner has an “emotional problem” is off base since we have only seen him cry a couple of times and he has a long history of being very confident if not over confident in public.
Of course Joy Behar was licking her chops for the opportunity to dig into the GOP leader by calling him “Weeper of the House” and saying that he only cries when talking about his own life and showing very little empathy for people that are now in a similar situation.
I’m no fan of Boehner and would have preferred that the GOP had chosen a real conservative to lead the new Congress but The View did take some unnecessary potshots and no doubt were more than happy to try and undermine the new speaker.
Yes a weepy liberal is compassionate but a weepy conservative has an emotional problem. That’s the real media double standard.

What a bunch of mean spirited liberal witchy bullies ! The only real grown up woman on this show who has any amount of common sense and decency is Elisabeth.
Does anyone actually watch that gaggle of yakk-addict morons?
I happen to agree with them, though.
Big Bad John needs to get a handle on the tear ducts. He is going to get torn up by late night comics and everyone else, if he ends up as Speaker and goes all wobbly every time he thinks of anything that makes him feel someone’s pain.
It’s too bad that Boehner is the presumed Speaker.
RON PAUL is the obvious House leader, he’s been speaking the truth to evil for years or decades, and finally the Tea Party caught up with him. Boehner is a good old boy and IMO is not the extremely strong leader that conservatism demands.
If not Paul, MICHELE BACHMAN would make an excellent speaker. She too has shown leadership through action, not words or seniority or the buddy system.
How about the second female speaker and the first honest female speaker?
I wonder if any of the “Ladies” (used very loosely) realize that when Mr.Boehner becomes Speaker ,,he is 3rd in line for POTUS. Behar’s NOT.
Goldberg’s NOT. If their God,OBAMA,were to go down on AF #1 with the First
Spender & his side-kick,Blabby,,,,I mean Biden,,(I feel sorry for the crew)
John Boehner will be POTUS. So,,if he wants to get emotional,,let him.
I get emotional at Christmas time when I hear just the right carol played just right. I lose it when I see flag-draped coffins of our “Precious Blood”. When it comes to our country & those who defend it,,I get emotional
SO WHAT!!!! In this country ,,I have that right. The “Ladies” of the View should pray to what ever God they believe in that they ARE in this country,,with it’s Constitution protecting THEIR rights to say vicious & nasty things about people they do NOT know,,without being dragged to prison
,,found guilty of some crime & stood up against a wall to receive their
‘Due Process’ of law (maybe Sharia style) at the point of a gun.
My Opinion Only.
No pity in these sadistic monsters in THE(LIBERAL)VIEW
