If you're born and raised in Vermont you learn at a very early age to worry. You worry about everything. You worry about the weather. You worry about your car or tractor breaking down. You worry about an early frost that will then cause you to worry about whether or not your crops are going to fail. You worry about sugaring season. You worry about sliding off slippery roads. You just worry. Goes with being a Vermonter.
As if we don't have enough to worry about these days we're about to have a guy running the US House of Representatives who cries at the drop of a hat. After his appearance on 60-Minutes this past Sunday he has rightfully gained the title "Weeper of the House". If Pelosi cried one-tenth as much as this guy does Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck (if he could hold back his own tears) would be all over her.
John Boehner said on 60-Minutes that he can no longer go to schools because he cries when he sees children. He said that he's worried they won't experience the American Dream. Meanwhile, he works overtime with his corporate lobbyists friends to ensure that our jobs go overseas and that there's no hope of anyone experiencing the American Dream except the Chinese.
He weeps for our troops being deployed to war, but does not shed one tear for the workers at the 9-11 site who now need health care. The guy is an unstable hypocrite
If he were to come to Vermont, sit in a bar and start blatting away to a Vermonter about his sorry childhood and the tough jobs he had to do, he'd get his ass knocked off the bar stool and tossed out the door. That would be because the grown man/Vermonter is still doing that menial job here in Vermont.
The simple fact is that this guy is unstable. It's not natural for a man or a woman to cry as much as this guy does and in public no less. Tammy Faye Baker was the last person I knew who cried this much and most people thought she was a loon-ball, because she WAS a loon-ball.
So suck it up, America. Don't shed a tear for the guy who'll cry enough for all of us. But you should be worried. You should be worried about the safety of our president and vice president, because, heaven forbid, anything should happen to these two guys, Mr. Cry-Me-A-River-Weeper-Of-The-House will be your president. So much for sleeping at night now....
This blog is to give you folks a little better understanding of the world through the eyes of an old Vermonter. We do things differently here. We live differently. We think differently. Just like you.

I'm weeping just thinking about this jackass. How is this possible? Oh wait, this is America where anybody, no matter how screwed up can achieve anything if they just work hard enough and then buy their way to power! Unfortunately it happens on both sides of the aisle. Now we just have to do some weeding.
