re: #188 blueraven

Nobody said he should ignore it. If he cant think of any other way to point out the bigotry of the tea party, he lacks creativity to say the least.
But what I think he lacks is any integrity as a congressman.

We all jumped Allen West when he said there were what?…something like 89 Communists in the Congress.

I just don’t understand the need to encourage or excuse bad behavior from our side. I want my side to be better than that.
Fight hard…hell yes, even dirty when necessary. But to me, this is just inflaming for his own sake. He lost his house seat once already, probably because of stunts like this.

I don’t have a strong opinion on the Grayson email because I’m conflicted —- rhetorical bomb throwers have their uses, but perhaps not in Congress.

However, as a matter of fact, ‘89 communists in Congress’ is much further from reality than ‘cross burners among the Tea Partiers’.
