The thing that strikes me about Boehner's crying compared to other politicians

[Quixote1818]

There have been many cases of politicians crying. Muskie caring deeply about his wife and tearing up. Hillary said she fell in love with Bill when she saw him crying because he had compassion for the poor and sick. Obama cried when his Grandmother died. Bob Dole cried talking about his Dad. But notice when Boehner seems to tear up. It's usually tears that are "self centered". He cries because HE became Speaker of the House or when talking about working his way up. His tears tend to be more directed at his own personal gain rather than the loss of a loved one or from watching someone suffer in poverty. I get the impression he is extremely self centered and loves himself a little too much.
