Ochocinco Tweets To Boehner: Are You OK?
Former Bengal Concerned About Unhappy-Looking Speaker At State Of Union
CINCINNATI --
During Tuesday nights State of the Union address from President Barack Obama, Ochocinco noticed a stone-faced House Speaker John Boehner sitting behind Obama.
Tweeted Ochocinco:
Anybody notice the guy over Obamas left shoulder doesnt seem very happy and hes not smiling. Hes not clapping with joy.
After being informed about Boehner, Ochocinco tweeted the Republican:
Just read some of your tweets and you seem pretty angry kind sir. I can see you on tv but youre not smiling. Hope youre ok.
Ochocinco, who was inactive for Sundays AFC championship game after flying to Florida to attend his fathers funeral Saturday, followed up with another tweet Wednesday morning:
Hello Mr. Boehner, hoping you are in better spirits today. If all else seems bad in life just remember I love you kind sir.

<wink!>
Thanks for the polite correction.

. . . whatever credit we give to Chad for nuance, it's funny as hell for Boehner to have such a high profile call-out on his pouting during the President's SOTU speech.
" . . . youre not smiling."
