"America is sick of you, Republican Party. You are a LIE FACTORY - that's all you ever do."
Alan Grayson isn't giving any ground, nor should he:
I don't like Ed Schultz, but Grayson is awesome. He looks like an extra from The Sopranos, but he's smart as a whip, and he will not sit down and he will not shut up or be cowed by the likes of Michael Steele and Eric Cantor and the rest of the Republican fainting couchers. The Republicans ARE a lie factory, and their hypocrisy is positively jaw dropping. This is a party that has embraced the "birthers" and other crazies; a party whose own representatives have perpetuated the myth set forth by their Designated Idiot, Sarh Palin, that the government is going to exterminate old people...and now they're got their panties in a twist because a Democratic Congressman FINALLY has the balls to call them on their bullshit?
This should be a lesson to ALL Washington Democrats: When you actually challenge these bullies, they crumple like a Yugo.

We're ashamed of them all (well, almost) right now.
(Not Dennis, of course.)

Congressman Grayson stands up, calmly walks to the GOP and kicks them squarely in the nuts.
They grab his head, bend his neck and demand an apology.
Congressman Grayson briefly takes a knee, makes like he's going to apologize, then brings up his right fist and uppercuts them in the nuts again.
He gets up, dusts himself off, looks over his shoulder, and says, "That's how it's done, limpdicks."
Congressman Grayson then walks off into the sunset whistling Dixie.
