21. Mixing his Anti-Depressants w Alcohol might explain it.
But I thought maybe it was the Dramatic Reading of the Constitution.

10. No way, really?
that guy really needs some form of counselling or medication to control his emotions. Either that or he should take a spot in the Hallmark Hall of Fame actor category, crying on cue is tough for most of us.

24. Wasn't Heath --
one of Rahm's boys? Hand-picked and asked to run a a Dem with very little allegiance to Democratic values? I remember him (or a staff member) coming here and campaigning/fundraising a lot during the race.

What a sad disappointment he turned out to be. I am surprised he just hasn't done the inevitable and jumped Parties.

28. Your Mr. Boehner reminds me of a character in Hilaire Belloc's 'Cautionary Tales'
Edited on Wed Jan-05-11 02:05 PM by LeftishBrit
Lord Lundy

Who was too Freely Moved to Tears, and thereby ruined his Political Career

Hilaire Belloc


Lord Lundy from his earliest years
Was far too freely moved to Tears.
For instance if his Mother said,
"Lundy! It's time to go to Bed!"
He bellowed like a Little Turk.
Or if his father Lord Dunquerque
Said "Hi!" in a Commanding Tone,
"Hi, Lundy! Leave the Cat alone!"
Lord Lundy, letting go its tail,
Would raise so terrible a wail
As moved His Grandpapa the Duke
To utter the severe rebuke:
"When I, Sir! was a little Boy,
An Animal was not a Toy!"

His father's Elder Sister, who
Was married to a Parvenoo,
Confided to Her Husband, Drat!
The Miserable, Peevish Brat!
Why don't they drown the Little Beast?"
Suggestions which, to say the least,
Are not what we expect to hear
From Daughters of an English Peer.
His Grandmamma, His Mother's Mother,
Who had some dignity or other,
The Garter, or no matter what,
I can't remember all the Lot!
Said "Oh! That I were Brisk and Spry
To give him that for which to cry!"
(An empty wish, alas! For she
Was Blind and nearly ninety-three).

The Dear Old Butler thought-but there!
I really neither know nor care
For what the Dear Old Butler thought!
In my opinion, Butlers ought
To know their place, and not to play
The Old Retainer night and day.
I'm getting tired and so are you,
Let's cut the poem into two!

Second Part


It happened to Lord Lundy then,
As happens to so many men:
Towards the age of twenty-six,
They shoved him into politics;
In which profession he commanded
The Income that his rank demanded
In turn as Secretary for
India, the Colonies, and War.
But very soon his friends began
To doubt is he were quite the man:
Thus if a member rose to say
(As members do from day to day),
“Arising out of that reply . . .!”
Lord Lundy would begin to cry.
A Hint at harmless little jobs
Would shake him with convulsive sobs.
While as for Revelations, these
Would simply bring him to his knees,
And leave him whimpering like a child.
It drove his colleagues raving wild!
They let him sink from Post to Post,
From fifteen hundred at the most
To eight, and barely six—and then
To be Curator of Big Ben!. . .
And finally there came a Threat
To oust him from the Cabinet!

The Duke—his aged grand-sire—bore
The shame till he could bear no more.
He rallied his declining powers,
Summoned the youth to Brackley Towers,
And bitterly addressed him thus—
“Sir! you have disappointed us!
We had intended you to be
The next Prime Minister but three:
The stocks were sold; the Press was squared:
The Middle Class was quite prepared.
But as it is! . . . My language fails!
Go out and govern New South Wales!”

The Aged Patriot groaned and died:
And gracious! how Lord Lundy cried!

29. Can you imagine what the press/pubs would have said if Pelosi cried?
We'd never hear anything but how weak she and the Dems are. That she's unstable/menopausal/overly emotional, etc., etc.

30. Because of my mean streak...
If I was a member of the US House of Reps, every time I stepped up to the mike, I'd toss a little something in there to see if I could get the new Weeper of the House to shed tears. That's just me though.
