I don't cry easily, but this did it for me. This is very touching.
Thanks for posting this, Tx4obama!

Martin Brasher showed a portion of the video at the end of his show and when it got to the part when Debbie started crying I started crying again too.
I'm sure it will end up on some of the rest of the shows today/tonight too.

It really emotionally grabs you.

I can almost read Gabby's mind as she catches Boehner's face: "Holy shit, are you crying?"
Wonderful tribute to her friend by Wasserman Shultz.

Seems like Boehner is 'always' crying about something.
