46. Notice how Garrett makes a point of saying "The Democrat Party" whenever
he opens his pie hole?

I couldn't get the above link to work. Went to YouTube and it didn't work there either.

Thanks for posting!

13. Virginia Foxx...
reminds me of Floyd (the barber) Lawson, after the character who played him had his unfortunate stroke (absolutely no disrespect intended toward actor Howard McNear)

52. That's because it's easy to shut down mental midgets like Virginia Fox
Virginia can't help it - she's a knuckle dragger.

18. I hope Obama and the DLCers appreciate the liberals who are consistenty fighting..
their battles for them. Unfortunately, when all is said and done, Weiner will probably end up under the bus along with the rest of the left.

I really do hope that we end up with something to show for this, though it's sad to think of what might have been.

That was bracing, as the truth can be when spoken forcefully.

Kudos to Anthony Weiner!!!

Garrett, I am sorry to say, is my "Representative". I know the guy is a slimy, useless, P-O-S but he has stooped even lower into the scum than I had imagined that he would.

30. No
He reps northwest NJ, which is the reddest part of the state (polar opposite of northeast NJ, which is very close to NYC). His district went overwhelmingly for McCain, something in the neighborhood of 65-35 if I recall. He's been called the most conservative member of Congress, according to some ratings system. He will be in Congress until he decides to retire or not run for re-election.

39. Unfortunately, he's my rep
I'm hoping that once Christie's cuts start to be felt by everyone who isn't making $400,000/year or more, the tide will turn and maybe Sussex county will finally "get it". During election season, it's annoying as hell to see all the republican lawn signs no matter where I go.

45. He depresses me
Just when I decide to ignore the guy, he pulls this crap. His fear-mongering emails were bad enough..now he pulls a Michelle Bachman. Our poor gerrymandered district is stuck with this fool for god knows how long. Sad to say he is beloved by many.

I'd call his office or write a letter but it is a waste of time.

I can't stand looking at his twisted, ugly mug. He's creepy and yes, it's depressing that we're stuck with him.

31. I wonder if they got that memo out of a Democratic staffer by waterboarding him
. . . the same way Dick Cheney got all that information about Saddam' WMDs and his associations with al Qaida.

It's no surprise that he and Jon Stewart are long-time friends. They both tell it like it is and don't take any crap.

37. You are a great orator, Representative Weiner !!
You have the rhetorical skills of the Golden Age of Congressional oratory. . .

of the likes of John Quincy Adams (yes, he was a Rep AFTER being the 6th US President. . .)

you have the same fire in the belly without losing Congressional comity (decorum). . .

you should emulate his service in reverse. . .be US PRESIDENT 2016 !

and you look a lot better than JQAdams ever did !

49. Nope. . JQA was the only one to do that. . .
a relentless anti-slavery spokesman, the citizens of Massachusetts elected him as their US Rep for his last 18 years of life (1830-48).

In fact, "Old Man Eloquent" died 2 days after collapsing there while giving a speech against the war with Mexico!

He was loved more for being a Rep than US President. . . his funeral attended by many Southerners as well.

Rep Weiner is in his league. . .tenacious as a bulldog. . .standing up for justice!

50. That was a beeee-uuuuu-teeful thing to watch. If only MORE Democrats had
those cajones and that direct, forceful way of speaking without showing hatred. If only.

If only Harry Reid were a little like that. This health care debacle might have played out entirely differently.

That one woman hollering about "Parliamentary Procedure" and people trying to interrupt him seem to be proof enough of that. Thank you Rep. Weiner.

53. This man is my new hero!
We need more people like him in congressional offices. I had never even heard of him until a couple months ago, but the more I see and hear him the more I absolutely love him. I'm glad he's all over the net and news lately too, because we need people like him speaking up. In fact, I think we should give him a bigger platform.
