House Minority Leader 'Cries' for Iraq
Posted On: May 25, 2007 at 1:55 PM By: Gabi
(Excerpt from transcript of House Minority Leader John Boehner addressing the House)

"Today, we begin an extended debate on the resolution criticizing the latest effort by American forces to win in Iraq. There’s no question that the war in Iraq has been difficult. All Americans are frustrated that we haven’t seen more success and that we haven’t seen it more quickly. But war is never easy and almost never goes according to plan.

Al Qaeda and their supporters in the region have been steadfast in their efforts to slow us down and frustrate our efforts to succeed. But because they cannot defeat Americans on the battlefield, al Qaeda and terrorist sympathizers around the world are trying to divide us here at home. Over the next few days, we have an opportunity to show our enemies that we will not take the bait."

Minority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) broke down on the House floor today, sobbing uncontrollably as he urged his colleagues to vote in favor of the $100 billion Iraq war spending bill.

"Members on both sides of the aisle feel differently about our mission in Iraq and our chances of success there," Boehner said, pausing to compose himself. As he continued, Boehner began to weep openly, crying out: "After 3,000 of our fellow citizens died at the hands of these terrorists, when are we going to stand up and take them on? When are we going to defeat them?"

Boehner went on to say, " I know that there’s this — I know there are differences in this chamber. Members on both sides of the aisle who feel differently about our mission in Iraq and our chances of success there. I know when I came here and every two years since I’ve been here on the opening day we all stand here, we raise our right hands and swear to uphold and defend the constitution of the United States. There are a lot of my colleagues have heard me make this statement that I didn’t come here to be a congressman. I came here to do something. And I think at the top of our list is providing for the safety and security of the American people. That’s at the top of our list. After 3,000 of our fellow citizens died at the hands of these terrorists, when are we going to stand up and take them on? When are we going to defeat them? Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you, if we don’t do it now, and we don’t have the courage to defeat this enemy, we will long, long regret it. So thank you for the commitment to get the job done today."

GOD BLESS THIS GREAT CONGRESSMAN

OUR TROOPS PAY IN BLOOD, WE JOIN HIM IN HIS TEARS, AMERICA SHOULD ALL WEEP. THE TROOPS WHO DEFEND OUR FREEDOM ARE OUR FAMILY IN A CURRENT BATTLE WITHIN A LARGER WORLD JIHOD, UNLIKE VIETNAM IF WE CUT & RUN THE JIHOD WILL FOLLOW US HOME TO A TOWN NEAR YOU. ASK THE CITIZENS OF N.J.

SOME ACROSS AMERICA SAY " I SUPPORT THE TROOPS, BUT...,FROM THERE ON THEIR MESSAGE HAS NO MESSAGE OTHER THEN THE TOTAL SURRENDER OF OUR TROOPS.

I FEEL SOME HAVE DISERTED OUR FAMILY AT WAR,.. FOR A FUTURE RETURN OF PORK,..THEY FEED MONEY TO BUILD BRIDGES,.. TO GO NO WHERE,...WHILE ATTEMPTING SURRENDER WHILE THE SAME TROOPS WHO SERVE TO PROTECT THERE FREEDOM & ALLOW THERE CHILDREN TO PLAY AT THE MALL, ATTEND COLLEGE, AND SLANDER OUR BRAVE TROOPS AS IF THEY WERE SECOND CLASS CITIZENS.

THEY WOULD BE AT THE MALL IN CANADA IF THOSE BRAVE AMERICANS DID NOT TAKE ON THE FIGHT.

THOSE WHO WISH TO SURRENDER THEM LIVE IN FEAR OF A DROP IN ENLISTMENTS WHICH WOULD REQUIRE A RETURN TO THE MILITARY DRAFT,..I WONDER IF THEY REMEMBER THE LARGE NUMBER OF AMERICANS WHO SPENT THE VIETNAM WAR IN CANADA?

I CRY WITH CONGRESSMAN BOEHNER FOR MY COUNTRY.

IF WE LOSE,. NOT THE BATTLE IN IRAQ,.. BUT THE JIHOD ,..WHICH THEY SEEM TO FORGET,. HAS AGAIN ATTACKED US IN N.J. WE WILL ALL CRY IN SHAME.

PLEASE REMEMBER THIS FELLOW AMERICANS

"KISS THE HAND, UNTILL YOU CAN CUT IT OFF". THERE WORDS,...NOT MINE.

I AM BUT A SIMPLE SOLDIER, I WILL STAND AT WEST POINT NY ON MAY 26 TO GREET THOSE WHO USE MY HOLY GROUND TO ATTACK MY BRAVE ARMY.

PLEASE RISE UP WITH ME BROTHERS AND SISTERS, LEAVE THE FIREWORKS, AND THE COOK OUT'S,.. LOAD UP THE FAMILY WITH FLAGS,. AND SIGNS,.. STATEING YOUR ANGER AT THOSE WHO USE THE HOME OF OUR MIGHTY ARMY WHICH HAS PROTECTED THIS NATION EVER SINCE ARNOLD WAS RELIEVED OF COMMAND BY GENERAL GEORGE WASHINGTON DROP FOR POWER AND MONEY,AS THEY DID ON MARCH 17 07 AT THE VIETNAM WALL IN WASHINGTON DC.

MAY GOD BLESS MY NATION, MY COMMADER IN CHIEF, MY BELOVED UNITED STATES ARMY AND CONGRESSMAN BOEHNER.

I BEG YOU TO JOIN THE EAGLES AT THE GATE, DEFEND OUR BRAVE TROOPS ON THERE HOME GROUND

EAGLES READ THE COMMENTS POSTED ON THIS HOME PAGE TODAY. BREATH IN THE PURE HATE, SMELL THE PURE EVIL. WE HAVE ONE WHICH STATES THEY WANT OUR TROOPS DEAD, OUR GOLD STAR MOTHERS DEAD...DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AS TO WHY YOU BELONG AT WEST POINT ON MAY 26 ?.

If I were that Congressman, I would have probably wept too!

Good for him for supporting the troops AND their mission! Maybe, JUST maybe, a few of his colleagues might justr finally GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

As for me, I'll be proudly marching in my town's Memorial Day parade tomorrow with my brother and sister Veterans, and reminding the people of my town that the war on terrorism has a face, MY FACE, and the faces of their sons, daughters, classmates, coworkers, neighbors, and even the people in the pew in front of them at church!

My family usually goes to the Presidio in SF on Memorial day but this year we're going to the Hornet. Can't stand to see that smarmy SF mayor so out of place and doing his "duty". Ruins the whole day. This year it should be memorable for the right reasons.

Boner is an idiot liar. He's really crying because he's a minority leader and he cant get the sweetheart deals for Cheney's Haliburton buds.

#6 James La Grutta Yes, James. We're all well aware how hilarious patriotism is to you and Joe (#7). If and when you find yourself face down on a muslim prayer rug, pretending to pray faithfully, and you find that hilarious - remember to keep your mouth shut. or They will cut your head off. And if and when you find yourself with a muslim's saw blade on your throat, make sure your last words are cursing G.W. Bush.

In the meantime, I'd rather not see anymore of your leftist babble here. If you want to appear brave, leave your address and phone number.

Hey Joe, where ya goin' with that kool-ade in yore hand? Do some research, find facts. How much has Haliburton LOST in the Iraq contracts. In fact Haliburton was the contractor of choice for like work during Clinton's criminal enterprise you dimwits call a presidency. We are not defending Haliburton here but your weak inane comment deserves attention. Consider the possibility that you've got your cranium so far up your rectum that reality escaped you long ago.Get a grip sonny, go somewhere besides the Soros propaganda machine for a change. I suggest Pat Dollard for an up to date appraisal of the Iraqi situation.THE TRUTH! You can probably find the Dollard site online even though I doubt you can find your ass with both hands tied behind your back. Think how impressed your little asshat buddies at Starbucks will be when they hear you quote heros instead of zeros. Try that, then get back to us.

Hi, Jim. Nice seeing you on Saturday and thanks for the coin. I made it home, after leaving DC Sunday early evening, at 3:30 AM Monday. Had a fine time both with GoE II on Saturday and with RT on Sunday. I cried at the Wall with my hand on my two Brothers names who are still over in Cambodia. A volenteer cried with me. No Shame here.(Crying a little right now.) When a Vet cries it is for the Lost. I hope someday, Joe and Jim, you find something worth crying for as We the Vets have.

MAIN STREAM MEDIA ATTENTION,THE "YELLOW DUCK" WENT INTO CYBERSPACE WHEN THE AP REPORTER SHOT THE PICTURE OF TWO WONDERFUL LADY EAGLES HOLDING OUR SIGNS & OUR FLAG & THE YELLOW DUCK WAS PRESENTED TO THE MOONBATS AS WE SULUTED THE FAMILYS AS THEY DROVE PAST THE SCREEMING DOG & PONY SHOW ACROSS THE STREET.

AS IS ALLWAYS THEY MOONBATS SCREAMED AT US TO ALLOW THEM TO SPEAK TO THERE COMRADS. VERY FEW CITIZENS LISTENED TO THERE HATE FILLED RANTS AGAINST AMERICA ,IN THE NAME OF SURRENDER TO JIHOD

ON MAY 25 LARRY H.& I, ARRIVED AT WEST POINT NY FOR THE FAMILY DAY WITH THERE NEW OFFICERS. THE US ARMY GREETED THE G.O.E.,MYSELF & LARRY HOFFA WITH JOY, WE WERE GIVEN A TOUR OF WEST POINT, WE SHOOK HANDS WITH MANY OF THE NEW 2ND LT'S & THERE FAMILYS. MANY PICTURES WERE TAKEN, BY FAMILYS & EAGLES.

I hope I am not to be confused with the other Joe that posted here I am not in agreement with him at all. People better wake up because the muslim terrorists want the entire world subjected to islam and they aren't gonna stop until it happens or more people get the balls to stop them.I am serving in Iraq right now and I am proud to serve my country and I am glad we are taking the fight to them here in their backyard and not in ours.September 11,2001 was an even more cowardly act than what the japanese did on December 7,1941.The only reason that 3,000 of our citizens died that day and all of the soldiers that have died in Operation Iraqi Freedom and in Operation Enduring Freedom is becasue of the 19 islamic jihadist cowards that flew those planes into the towers.I will never bow down to pray on a muslim prayer rug,I came in this world freeand a catholic and that is how I plan on leaving it .
