call this freedom of speech but I call this hate speech and the Congress person supported it by giving this guy a ticket. Is that the kind of representative his constituents want? Why would anybody vote for this idiot? It is the reason the Congress is in the state it is now. People are voting for and sending these crazy lunatics to Congress. I don't think the Republican Party has any good Policies worth listening to. That Party needs to be purged.

Please Please Please Ted ajk2821 Feb 2013 #1
