Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) got emotional and teared up during his opening statement during the first hearing of the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the Capitol on Tuesday.

Kinzinger, one of two Republicans whom House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) hand-selected to serve on the commission, choked back tears as he commended the four United States Capitol Police officers who came to testify.

“Thank you to our witnesses. I never expected today to be,” he began, his voice cracking before he continued, “quite as emotional for me as it has been. I’ve talked to a number of you and have gotten to know you.”

“I think it’s important to tell you right now, though, you guys may like feel individually a little broken. You guys all talk about the effects you have to deal with and you know, you know, you talk about the impact of that day. But you guys won,” he said, choking up. “You guys held.”

“You know, democracies are not defined by our bad days. We’re defined by how we come back from bad days. How we take accountability for that. And for all the overheated rhetoric surrounding this committee, our mission is very simple, it’s to find the truth and to find accountability,” he said.

(Lying $#@!. If that was true, you would not be in a fit of lachrymosity in front of the people accountable for the only violence that day. - AF)

A display like this doesn't make Kinzinger a Republican in name only.

It makes him a tried and true Republican who exemplifies the very essence of the party.

You got a point.

My hypothesis has long been that the Democrat Party is the party of emotion, the Republican party tries to be the party of logic. In Myers-Briggs terms, it’s (T)hinking vs. (F)eeling. Daddy government vs. Mommy government.

That’s a gross generalization, without consideration of the fact that the leadership of both parties represent the crony corporatist establishment.

That being said, crying during a hearing like that tends toward the emotional, and generally would be more consistent from a Democrat.

As a general rule I agree. But when it's crying about how much you love cops, then the balance of likelihood swings back over to the R side.

I almost like it. I think you're closer with mommy and daddy. The party of estrogen and the party of testosterone.

McStain, John Boner, and Hannibal Lechter all rolled up into one.

The world will feel some more pain from this anal wart on humanity.

That would be a different scale. Call it the MIC scale. Both D and R can be very MIC, mostly due to the revolving doors, kickbacks and lobbying money. People on both sides like money. And as far as cops goes, who is more likely to call the Police? Mommy or Daddy?
