Sen. Bunning puts foot in mouth again.
snip <Sen. Jim Bunning, R-Ky., has conducted a poll on his 2010 bid for election to a third term, but he isn't making the results public.

"Let's say I did the polling," the senator told reporters on a conference call this morning.

What does that mean?

"That means it's none of your g--d--- business," Bunning said, who then followed up with a laugh. "If you paid the 20 grand for the poll, you can get some information out of it." >

------
This has hit the main area news outlets today.

3. I despise Bunning and think he is stupid. But I like the reply to the slime media.
The assholes deserve to be treated that way.

4. Bunning is moving up fast on my Senate stupid list.
He's still behind Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham, but he's just passed Jeff Sessions and John Cornyn with a bullet.

That's some serious stupid right there.

7. I live close to bunning country-he is with
few exceptions (but there are a few) a representation of the moron's that vote for him. I used to be angry-then amused, now just resigned to the stupidity I encounter with these people-the very ones that voted for him, and would again.

6. I'm sure it showed him ahead 80-20
And he's just so happy about it, he wants to savor the good news a little while before he shares it with world!

Or not.

9. Without an all-star catcher, he's useless.

:shrug: He's a typical GOP puppet. Cut the strings and he's a joke.

10. Wasn't he the one who wouldn't debate his opponent in 2004?
He ended up debating from some repuke television studio, probably with cue cards. I think he is senile, and is trying to hide it without much success.

12. It's hit the Lexington paper. It needs to be on Tweeties, Keith, and Maddow
too. Let's make sure the pressure is on him to the point where he resigns in disgust.
