    Actually, the Vice President is next in line to be President. I think Joe Biden would make an exceptional President, too. The Speaker is third in line; however, in the history of the United States, there has never been an instance where both the President and VP died. Thus, a Speaker has never become President in this manner. You really have nothing to worry about.

    Also, it's pronounced "Bay-ner," not "bo.ner," so there should be little issue there.

    Its quite disconcerting to see a grown man cry, in public whenever he talks about himself and the tough times he had growing up. And then want me to support an extended tax break for the rich and not support extending unemployment payments so a family can eat.

    That he doesn't cry about.

    And he doesn't just let a tender tear fall, the man gasps and sobs, that's too much for most Americans, if a woman did that she'd be demonized and could never run, even other women would cringe because she'd play into the woman=weak stereotype.

    But now we have a man, a Republican, who tears up at a whole lot of things, but calmly tells those kids he's concerned about 'having the American dream' to go without health care, (SCHIP battle) to go without dinner if Daddy got laid off, and to send their pennies so Paris Hilton can buy coke with her tax breaks.

    Boehner looks like that overly sentimental drunk at everyones corner gin mill. The one who is really only interested in himself and if he can get you to stand him a drink.

    His name is irrelevant, his behavior is suspect, and his politics are nauseating.

    Lets see him in action. He did better than I expected on 60 minutes. We will see if he becomes a statesman who can find common ground and help this country climb out of this horrible economy and start growing again.

    We can rant and rave if he acts like a spoiled politician who throws his weight around.

    I find it interesting that liberals, who usually love to talk about things like men embracing their feminine side and being in touch with their emotions, are now attacking Boehner. It makes some of us feel that you just can't win with liberals. There's no way to make them happy. I'd be willing to bet that if Obama were to get teary-eyed you'd be gushing about what a caring person he was.

    Maybe, we had one for President or did you forget all the tears that Clinton rolled out for the cameras when he was in office?

    Well at least with him America won't head down the **** pipe to a socialist hell hole where everyone sticks their thumb up their asses and has to watch comrade obama play basketball while they wait in line for years at the hospital waiting to get stitches thanks to Obamacare. The idea he was talking about in that video is what America is about and I would much rather have him as speaker than that botoxed money-grubbin defiecit fusterclucker Pelosi

    Nothing wrong with a man that's emotional about certain things.

    He was one of eleven children brought up in a very small house

    with one bathroom. He gets teary when he talks about children

    and them some day having a chance at being where he's made

    it to. I like a guy with feelings....makes him human. He's definitely

    NOT crazy and that's mean spirited of you to insinuate that.

    Pelosi was dumb but Boehner will be even dumber and well go backwards to 2 years ago and see what happens.
