What is so emotional about an artist getting this major medal/recognition? It is nice and touching to a degree but WTF? Did the artist (who's been dead a long time) have his blind grandchild with the limp accept the medal or something?

I don't get it.

Joe Scarborough: "Republicans tell me this is a guy that is not the hardest worker in the world. After 5 o'clock, 6 o'clock at night, he is disengaged at best. You can see him around town. He does not have, let's say, the work hours of Newt Gingrich. ... Every Republican I talk to says John Boehner by 5 or 6 o'clock at night, you can see him at bars. He is not a hard worker."

I'm sorry we've disappointed the stereotype you created. That was very unfair of us.

Also, when you legislate like a sociopath and then cry like a ninny, it's kind of funny.
