We need more like this! Its time to fight fire with fire. Too long have we tried to be civil to the cretins on the right, its time to STAND UP and call them out on their bullshit.

Last year he came up with a one-liner that is a spectacular evergreen assessment for any campaign filled with empty promises, and it sure resonated with me:

That was an Alcee Hastings gem. Well worth remembering - and eminently quotable!

He sure can cut through the bullshit.

Besides, our side has already been WAY too "nice". ENOUGH of that shit.

Where is the fire from the Democrats? They should be hollering from the rooftops that Nunes has got to go!
