From Now On I Will Refer To John Boenher As The Cryer.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

i hope it catches on.

1. I like the nickname

Joy Bahar (I may be spelling that wrong, the women from the view) gave him. Weeper of the House.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

2. LOL

Barbara Walters said there is something wrong with him. Barbara Walters has literally met every leader of our lifetime from Mandela to Brezhnev to Sadat to Reagan to Obama.

3. He's mentally unstable. Clearly. n/t

[BrklynLiberal]

6. THAT is a good one.

[lunatica]

10. Weeper of the House is much better

Cryer brings to mind the historic way that news was disseminated before the time of newspapers.

[stopbush]

20. Agreed. And it fits him like a glove.

Boner's weeping reminds me of that skit from In Living Color where Jim Carrey plays Jerry Clooney Jr, ie: the son of the boxer famous for his glass jaw. He starts dating Mike Tyson's daughter. When he's introduced to Tyson by his daughter, Tyson gives him a pat on the face at which point Jr starts bleeding from the mouth and falls to the floor.

That's Boner!

"Hey John, it looks like it might rain."

"Boo-hoo, waaaah!"

4. Unfortunately, crying in male politicians is now A-okay.

At least according to The Toady Show this morning. It "shows their human side", dontcha know.

:puke:

5. Not At A Drop Of A Hat. That's Not Healthy, Regardless Of Gender

.

[GoCubsGo]

11. Oh, I agree.

It's just that the media are now fine with that sort of thing--even at the drop of a hat. It's the usual "IOKIYAAR" BS.

[madmax]

7. He's an alcoholic. Period.

No big mystery.

Bet there isn't a DU'er who can't relate, has a family member or friend who has a the 'problem'.

From the news and gossip stories he likes t cut out early and hit the bars. It's caught up to him.

[ladywnch]

8. Joy Bayhar (?) from the view said they refer to him as the "wheeper of the house"

which I think is kinda catchy

[stillwaiting]

9. I LOVE weeper of the house!!

:)

[otohara]

15. Me Too - WOTH

fits like a glove.

[northernlights]

18. nuts ya beat me to it. The Weeper works for me.

Weeper. Rhymes with freeper. And goes so well with whiner. Or winer, as the case may be.

[T Wolf]

12. He IS as annoying as the "real" Jon Cryer and the character he plays on Two-and-a-Half Men.

Only much more destructive.

But he is #3 in line, so you better hope he avoids small planes.

Oops - that advice is only necessary for Democrats.

[treestar]

13. +1000

[mtnsnake]

14. About 100 million people already beat you to the punch

[frazzled]

17. Or the Tear Jerk. nt

[mtnsnake]

22. LOL

Good one! :thumbsup:

[madamesilverspurs]

19. In addition,

there's "Grim Weeper" and "Ickyleaks".

[fatbuckel]

21. That does`nt differentiate him from other Repubs. They`re all criers.

[southernyankeebelle]

23. Joy from the View calls him the Weeper of the House. My husband said that come

Jan we'll see more crying than a daycare.

[Raine1967]

24. WaPo has something funny today: Why is John Boehner crying?

[JoePhilly]

25. Or ... you could say he suffers from "Weepy Orange Boehner Syndrome"
