Yes, this is another Sensenbrenner thread,

I just finished watching the rerun on C-Span and I am SO FUCKING ANGRY I am running around my own house yelling and screaming like a loon.

Would it have been wrong if one (or, ideally, ALL) of the Dem members of the Judiciary Committee would have yelled the word "Nazi" at Sensenbrenner as he dragged his fat fucking ass out the fucking door?

I watch a good bit of crap on C-Span. Mostly its good political theater, but largely meaningless. But this little stunt by Sensenbrenner was so over the top, so disrespectful, so dismissive of the minority that it was beyond what even I can stand.

As AI has compared Guantanamo Bay to the Gulags, would it be so bad if our elected Dems compared fatassmotherfucking Sensenbrenner to a low level Nazi functionary?

Would that have been so bad?

Cuz that's EXACTLY what it was.

4. Or at least "Fascist."
But you can't say anything these days without being called a "loose cannon" and "angry" and "full of hate."

(Unless you're a Republican. Then you can say and do anything -- even slash democracy while preaching patriotism.)

6. Criminal, yes, definitely.
However, I would be very cautious about using the term "Nazi." Maybe call them "Nazi-like" or "fascists." They need to be called on their shit and not be able to weasel out because of semantics. JMO.
