2. It might have been something he said to someone from Ga.
(That much I got from our anonymous voice-over person)

3. He called that Nazi piglet Tom Price out....
for not having the decency to come visit south Mississippi, and holding the victims of Hurricane Katrina to a different standard than he'd hold his own constituents to. Price offered some amendment about requiring Katrina victims to work in order to receive housing assistance.

4. That makes perfect sense.
I can see why tempers would wear thin down in the Gulf. (And, YES we should all be just as pissed off as Taylor is.)

5. Price is a COWARD and a NAZI
He talks a tremendous amount of shit on the floor of the Congress, but back in the fall he MISSED
*3* debates with the democrat running against him.

I know, I was there for 2 of them. :grr:

9. My congressman comes through most of the time
He definitely ain't my ideal candidate but the neanderthals that have run against him the last several elections are incredibly scary.

12. Ironic, yes?
It is important to maintain order in the HOUSE because without it the place would be a zoo, but I did enjoy watching someone say it like they felt it.

And, because Price objected, Taylor's speech was repeated at least twice to explain what the vote was about. Ha.
