Michael "Dull-Witted Anus" Grimm (R-NY): "..."Equity"...you see, that word scares me..."

Just now on MSNBC's "Jansing & Co."

Asked if the rich should pay their fair share of taxes, says "We already know wealthy Americans pay the vast majority of taxes." When asked about income equity, he replied "Equity...you see, that word scares me, pitting Americans against each other when we should be bringing them together."
