Keep givin' 'em hell Congressman Grayson!

Edited to add:

From Politico.com

Alan Grayson says putting the Republicans back in charge of Congress would be like putting a terrorist in the pilot’s seat of a jetliner.

“Why would you want to put people in charge of government who just don’t want to do it?” the Florida Democrat asks in a new interview with Orlando’s WTVF. “I mean, you wouldn’t expect to see al Qaeda members as pilots.”

Republicans are pouncing on the latest from a man who once said the GOP health care plan is for Americans to “die quickly.” NRCC spokesman Andy Sere says Central Floridians are “deeply embarrassed by Alan Grayson and would characterize his freshman term in Congress as a reign of terror.”

But Grayson’s office is standing by his comments. The point he was trying to make: If Republicans want as little government as possible, why put them in charge of it?

4. Why is this "controversial"?

The long-standing stated goal of the GOP, extolled by every leader of the party for the last 30 yrs, is to make "govt small enough to drown in a bathtub" and intentionally ineffective.

For the GOP, failure in govt is a virtue.

6. Except every time THEY'RE in power they enlarge 'the bathtub' bigger than Texas!

[Amonester]

8. And to benefit ONLY their own INNER CIRCLE cronies at the expense

of everybody else down to their Grandchildren, and way beyond.

7. standard right wing program

standard right wing program {
-> get in gov.
-> brake social programs that help people,. (divert as much money to self and fraternity brothers!)
-> point at broken system,. "See -insert crippled social program here- does not work!"
-> call for its dismantling,. while increasing police/millitary spending!!
}

9. Yes, send this man a donation - republicans are going to cheat,

steal and spend to get Grayson out of that congressional seat. The republicans in this election in Florida will be spending millions upon millions to keep the election close, then it's much easier to steal it, especially when the state has a republican secretary of state (who "counts" the votes)....then it's too late, no matter how much proof the Dems have of election stealing after the election it's just too late.
