John Boehner: Foot-In-Mouth Disease, Again

 CNN Senior Congressional Producer Deirde Walsh writes, "Boehner admits immigration comments went too far..."  O josh Walsh, say it ain't so! U.S. House Speaker made public comments that went "too far," nooo, surely not.

Boehner, who has a tendency to drop a quick tear or two during emotional public pronouncements and to look overtly tan, is now branching out into a public, mocking whine. Why do such politicians tend to do such things when at Rotary-Club-like appearances? Do they have a secret desire to be a comedian that they're unable to suppress...

After all Boehner was pretty funny when in reference to passing immigration legislation he melodramatically mocked some of the House Members of his own Party, speaking through them like he was a ventriloquist and they are dummies, "'Ohhhh, don't make me do this. Ohhhh, this is too hard.'"  http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2014/04/29/boehner-admits-immigration-comments-went-too-far/?hpt=hp_inthenews

Don't get me wrong. I don't mean to attack Speaker Boehner due to his Party or views; nope, it's his funny behavior. On the other side of the aisle, I personally like Senator Harry Reid but at times his voice makes me cringe to the point I almost miss the point of what he might be saying... I know this isn't a perfect analogy, but still I consider myself as one who casually flirts with the behavior-news of others without regard to Party. FYI: There are no purely perfect analogies, anyway.

So, what do think? Should our politicians spend more time working on the timbre of their voices and/or their entertainment skills or on working together for the good of our country - especially the middle and lower classes? Just wondering...
