Sen. Jim Bunning (R-KY) doesn't want to answer any questions about his continuing obstruction of legislation to extend unemployment and COBRA benefits to out of work Americans, and keep Medicare doctors fees from dropping significantly. But according to a producer for ABC News, he's so mad he's giving reporters the middle finger--literally.

Here's the video of the exchange that supposedly included the...unfriendly...gesture.

So "Fitting"

4. Isn't there some way to impeach a senator

if it can be proven he has caused demonstrable and willful harm to people by his actions? I mean the average citizen can be put in jail for less.

6. That would depend on his state's constitution and

the will of his state to do anything to stop him

[Hulk]

5. What a total pig!

This cowardly ass hole has single-handedly screwed nearly a million Americans....not to mention his own constituents.

The people of KY must be real proud of their choice to represent them.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

7. ... and he probably will be reelected again...

by the same people he's screwing with his 'fuck you' game. After all, he has always been pro-life, and that's all that really matters, isn't it?

[AlbertCat]

9. Uh, no Senator, you are not excused.
