whats your gripe?
We have the 3rd most powerful guy in American,who is one of 11 kids, grew up working with his father in a bar, put himself through school, made HIS OWN millions and went into politics. He is a sensitive guy. He grew up in a house full of love and family. He understands SACRIFICE.
Whats wrong with that?
I'll take that over arrogant liberal arsewipes any day of the week

unstable? I think he just gets how imporant the decisions that are made really are.

What's the big deal? At least the guy has passion for what he believes in. Still not as bad a Roenick crying as a commentator after the Blackhawks won the Cup though…

Desert Storm hero 4 Star General Norman Schwarzkopf once said, "I don't trust a man who doesn't cry."

Sorry to hyjack for a minute. This is a serious qustion and I honestly can not remember:

Does anyone ever remember if Clinton cried talking about getting his socks blown off and sticking that cigar up the interns skirt in the oval office?

I know I would have!

no, but he did fake crying when he was spotted y#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g (that's weird, I wrote "y" duck ...ing...it up... and got bleeped, tough regulator) it up at Ron Brown's funeral, as soon as he realized he was on camera he quickly began sobbing.....Bubba could really turn on the crocodile tears, I guess if you bite your lip hard enough it makes you cry....

Is Nancy Pelosi a chick or a dude? I guess you have to be human to show emotion.............

Tagger, all joking aside, you are right on the "time will tell" comment. Not saying this guy is great but we will see in time. I don't think him being overly emotional automatically counts him out.

Also, if I felt Pelosi actually did a good job and showed an emotional side once in a while, I really wouldn't care. Just as I didn't care when General H. Norman Schwarzkopf got emotional (and he did it multiple times) during and after leading his troops. I know it's a little different comparison but it does put it in perspective

time has already told. The guy made more money in his own business that you'll ever make in your lifetime. Gave it up to be a politician.
Pelosi? Has she ever worked in her life?

Plays more golf than Tiger Woods. Will meet on common ground but won't comprimise. To me that's talking out both sides of your mouth . Sorry Piscator ,, didn't mean to talk for anyone eles.. I could be wrong but I don't believe this guy gives 2 poops about me and my lot ..

No problem at all Tagger. All in good fun.

I do hope you are wrong, but time will tell, that's for sure. Unfortunately, Politics (like most big business) is a dirty game. I think everyone on all sides agrees that just because it “is what it is”, doesn’t make it right. Both sides need to wake up and change. It seems the biggest war chest wins the election and that chest is filled by entities looking for something in return that benefits themselves (self interest). How can it be stopped, I hope there is a way?
