Rep. Alan Grayson: "Tea Party is no more popular than the Klan"

Jessica Ehrlich Not Welcome

In an email shared with Peter Schorsch of Saint Petersblog  Mrs. Young, Bill Young's widow advises Ehrlich, who ran against Rep. Young in 2012, that she is not “welcome at any of my husband’s memorial services.”

“People like you are the exact people that makes this world a scary place to live in,” Young writes. “You should be ashamed of the games you attempted to play so you could secure a job.“

I will keep my words to myself on this one, RIP Mr. Young.

Ted Yoho (R-FL), a Tea Party freshman whose outspoken stupidity on a default’s potential benefits, such as an improved U.S. credit rating, has provided a bit of dark humor in these dark days. Yoho, a large-animal veterinarian, announced months ago that he would never vote to raise the debt ceiling. Like most Republican candidates, he had no problem raising contributions from business interests, notably including contractors, insurance companies, manufacturers and agricultural processors — all of which presumably share the horror of default expressed by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

The GOP Carnage Has Begun

First Amanda Murphy a Democrat from New Port Richey beats Bill Gunter who had the support of the state GOP and Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross,  who spent $75,000 in the last weeks of the campaign. And now Democrat Cory Booker slides into victory in New Jersey. A Tea Party Republican has been soundly defeated and thus denied entry into the Senate, The Tea Party guy Steve Lonegan ran an embarrassing campaign, resorting to questioning Booker’s sexual orientation in lieu of focusing on the issues facing the state and the country....more And their man Ken Cuccinelli up in Virginia is also losing. 

Hey Marco Rubio, The Christ Was A Liberal

He cared about his fellow man. He promoted peace. He cleansed his fathers temple of greed and profit. He would never condone you and your cohorts. You and the rest of the so called Christians are nothing but a bunch of hypocrites. You guys would of been the mob screaming for his execution. Stop hiding behind our Christ, you are Insulting us.
