Incoming Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said incoming Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) is "known to cry."

"You know what? He is known to cry. He cries sometimes when we’re having a debate on bills. If I cry, it’s about the personal loss of a friend or something like that. But when it comes to politics — no, I don’t cry. I would never think of crying about any loss of an office, because that’s always a possibility, and if you’re professional, then you deal with it professionally," Pelosi (D-Calif.) told the New York Times magazine.

She noted: "I have deep emotions about the American people. If I were to cry for anything, I would cry for them and the policies that they’re about to face."

2. Ouch...what a slam!!!

"I have deep emotions about the American people. If I were to cry for anything, I would cry for them and the policies that they’re about to face."

That should give the orange boner something to cry about.

3. "if you’re professional, then you deal with it professionally,"

8. It's an overt double standard

Any woman in politics who cries (Pat Schroeder comes to mind in 1987-88), will instantly be tagged as emotionally unsuited to elected office.

A man who does it is labeled as a strong leader with "passion" and strong convictions.

It is very unfair.

11. He reminds me of my ex.

In our mediated discussions about arranging more parenting time for our children and me, she only cries when she talks about how much money it's costing her.
