Why is it that you never see John Boehner answering any questions on cable news shows? Does the

[mfcorey1]

RNC have fears of what would come out of his mouth?

1. they say he's camped out at his favorite bar by four

2. I have a feeling that he avoids publicity, probably for the reason you mentioned.

When he came to my district to support the teabagger congressional candidate, he made no public appearances at all, strictly private, like it was some kind of secret. Maybe they're afraid he'll cry... :cry: :eyes:

3. Last time I saw him on a news show,

he got drunk and cried on camera.

I believe that was on a good day. Imagine what a bad day must be like...

5. he GOT drunk on camera?

You mean he brought in a bottle of Mad Dog and chugged it during the interview?

Damn...I always miss these things!

[bitchkitty]

6. Sorry - should have said WAS drunk on camera. n/t

[Ken Burch]

8. Oh, ok...

Still, that would have been an epic "YouTube" moment, wouldn't it?

[bitchkitty]

10. LOL - I thought it was pretty epic when he cried.

It was so obvious to me that he was shit-faced.

Bush used to do that too - he was drunk in the Rose Garden at one point, I remember.

The media never points it out. I guess they think if they don't, we won't notice?

4. I think it is obvious the man is emotionally unstable

7. Well . . . because it's cable news.

Our "Softballs R Us" Fourth Estate only does that sort of thing to Democrats. Repubs get pillows, peeled grapes and massages at the ready.

9. When they start doing cable news from a bar then Boehner will become a regular.
