Rep. Grayson mocks ‘bath salts caucus’ for voting against Sandy relief



Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) on Monday mocked the 67 House Republicans who voted against disaster relief funds for the victims of Hurricane Sanday.

“It’s the same 67 over and over again,” he noted on The Stephanie Miller Show. “It’s the bath salts caucus, the people that would rather eat your face than raise taxes on the rich.”

I'm so glad he's still checking in with Stephanie's show. I wonder if he's one of the 'surprise' panel super special guests for her Washington DC Sexy Liberal Show.

I have been through there several times before and after Katrina. He, of all people should know how desperate things are after a hurricane. He had requested relief funds for the state agency he worked for at the time. Now its different because it is for a liberal Northern state. How heartless and cruel do you have to be! One might say that he is trying to hurt America and Americans for partisanship. Can you say H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T-E!

I wonder what he's going to say about gun control.....because it's not just about 30,000 deaths a year, it should be also about how guns are used to rob people, rape, bribe, threaten and injure people. What's the statistics on that? If some one uses a gun, pointed at your face, are you more likely to what they say or not?
Guns in my view is much more than than just killing people? Am I wrong to say this? Is that not part of the equation, but it's never mentioned, or maybe I missed it?

Unlike the republicans' attempts at humor: "The Female Body Has Ways to Shut That Whole Thing Down", Alan Grayson is both true and funny.

Wish he was my Congressman. But, hey, our Senator - Pat Toomey - voted against Sandy relief. This is PA. We got hit with Sandy, too. Jackass.

Great gobs of mud! (My father used to use that a lot. He said I should consider using it instead of swearing because it was an attention-getter and was acceptable, mostly, in polite society. He was German, which may or may not be important in this context. But, I digress ......).

As soon as we get the House back, Mr. Grayson is going to ..... (what is a polite word for disembowel?) get after Repubs like we haven't seen since Hector was a pup.
