Alan Grayson Has Exposed Them

[FOTD]

Grayson's congressional colleagues are now dumping on your attention whore. Let's hear from the notorious reich winger Anthony Weiner:

"Is this news to you that this guy's one fry short of a Happy Meal?"

"Here I am, the only member of Congress who actually worked as an economist. And she's, this lobbyist, this K Street whore, is trying to teach me about economics."

Grayson was allegedly referring to Bernanke adviser Linda Robertson, who Grayson said had headed up Enron Corp.'s lobbying shop in Washington, D.C., the newspaper reported.

A Democratic aide of Grayson's later defended his statement, telling the newspaper, "The Congressman's choice of the words referred to her career as a lobbyist and her history of promoting whomever and whatever pays."

"Congressman Grayson was an economist and believes she is not qualified to attack complex financial reform policies," the aide reportedly said.

Yeah, but shout "you lie" at the president, and the dems panties collectively get in a wet wad.

[Hoss]

The same effect that 'public option' has on Repubs, eh?

Violation of protocol for Wilson.
Completely inappropriate.
Nobody shouted "you lie" at any of Bush's addresses to congress...

Keep equivocating with your blind partisanship....

Freakin WHATEVER moocher!!! The double standards you and others in this forum have is so overwhelmingly over the top that it borders cartoonish. Oh, and in reviewing your post, I gather your panties were way, way wet and wadded up over Wilson. Tell me, were they that wadded up over the Bush shoe thrower? Or, were they that wadded up when congressional dems booed Bush in 2005?

Spare me your BS violation of protocol stuff and give up the Obama spooning.

Really, I just saw a poll (curiously not conducted for the DailyKos) showing republicans leading in generic congressional ballots by 5:

Here's Gallup claiming that conservatives are now the dominant ideological group:

None of this BS means anything though because generally polls suck.

Like Rasmussen and Gallup aren't slanted either.

You'd do better to just link to your posts on Freep so you don't have to type so much T...

Actually, I thought he was closer to a Beck spooner.  I bet he can cry on command too!

Nope.  I'm hearing the talking points of Boortz and Michelle Maulkin.....

Funny how the focus is always on the individual bad apples, many of whom are poor/lazy/irresponsible, when the cost of welfare for the bad apples is far less than the cost of bailing out deregulated institutions....

From Krugman....

Attacks on Reaganomics usually focus on rising inequality and fiscal irresponsibility. Indeed, Reagan ushered in an era in which a small minority grew vastly rich, while working families saw only meagre gains. He also broke with longstanding rules of fiscal prudence.

On the latter point: traditionally, the US government ran significant budget deficits only in times of war or economic emergency. Federal debt as a percentage of GDP fell steadily from the end of World War II until 1980. But indebtedness began rising under Reagan; it fell again in the Clinton years, but resumed its rise under the Bush administration, leaving us ill prepared for the emergency now upon us.

The increase in public debt was, however, dwarfed by the rise in private debt, made possible by financial deregulation. The change in America's financial rules was Reagan's biggest legacy. And it's the gift that keeps on taking.

The immediate effect of Garn-St. Germain, as I said, was to turn the thrifts from a problem into a catastrophe. The S&L crisis has been written out of the Reagan hagiography, but the fact is that deregulation in effect gave the industry — whose deposits were federally insured — a licence to gamble with taxpayers' money, at best, or simply to loot it, at worst. By the time the government closed the books on the affair, taxpayers had lost $130 billion, back when that was a lot of money.

----Once again, who are the REAL MOOCHERS?

Anyone else impressed with how they arranged the disapproval to look like someone shooting the bird?

Clever, very clever.

Conan likey!
