Speaker John Boehner delivered the commencement address at Catholic University this morning, shedding a few tears while telling the graduates they should embody three virtues.
“Humility, patience and faith, and always a few tears from me,” Boehner said.
Boehner teared up during a story about the morning of his leadership election in 2006, when he went to 7 a.m. mass and prayed for the Virgin Mary’s guidance. When he thought he received no sign, he got a call from his former high school football coach, Gerry Faust, who went on to coach at Notre Dame.
He cries at commencement and can’t get anything done in Congress. I wrote about this today: http://bit.ly/ljGLFJ
