Norquist: Don Young is Like a "Rat Head in a Coke Bottle"

[tanyev]

We reported earlier that Rep. Don Young (R-AK) falsely claimed that he was named "Hero of the Taxpayer" by the non-partisan reform group, Taxpayers for Commonsense.

As it turns out, Young was named "Hero of the Taxpayer", by the conservative group Americans for Tax Reform, founded and run by Republican lobbyist Grover Norquist.

But now even Norquist is throwing Young under the bus, issuing a press release late this afternoon slamming the Congressman and claiming he "betrays taxpayers."

"Republicans that vote for tax increases are like rat heads in Coke bottles,"Norquist said. "They ruin the Republican brand for all members. It should be readily apparent to a former 'Hero of the Taxpayer Award' recipient that you don't vote for tax hikes."

A rat head with mink teeth! :rofl:

Why is Grover so obsessed with submerging things in liquid? Hmmm?

1. Eh...cut him some slack.

His name is Grover. Hasn't he suffered enough?

3. There is an ad being played daily showing Young saying

He wants a dollar a gallon tax placed on fuel so it would teach people to conserve. He is very snide in his comments saying "that should teach them". The punch line in the ad though says Alaskans do not want Young's huge tax on gas..This statement by Young is killing him in both Parties..

4. Why can't everyone in the Corrupt Bastards Club just get alone?

Our great Alaskan rat head and "Hero of the Taxpayer" is leading ALL the Rs down the Road to Nowhere. :rofl:
