John Boehner Re-Elected Speaker of the House

At The Hill, "Boehner reelected as Speaker; nine Republicans defect in vote." (At Memeorandum.)

And actually, Boehner's outward emotion never really bothers me, but it makes for a lot of comedy. At Weasel Zippers, with additional video, "Shocker: Boehner Tears Up After Being Re-Elected House Speaker…"

And from Patricia Murphy on Twitter:

Who WOULDN'T cry after being elected Speaker of this Congress?
