I don't blame you for disliking him Ive, we often tend to fear that which we don't understand.
If he has, and I'm guessing he hasn't, it's only because conks believe that the 1st amendment should apply to coroporations when it comes to campaign finance.AZGrizFan wrote:Yeah, but I'm bettin' that sorry cocksucker voted for it anyways.kalm wrote:

Not nearly enough Ivytalks at Harvard.

Too many Ivytalks at Harvard.

Actually, kalm, Summers did a damn fine job as Harvard president before the feminazis chased him out of town. And, as you well know, he's a card-carrying liberal who works for your hero.kalm wrote:Here's one them. You must be so proud.Ivytalk wrote:

Hey, numbnuts: D1B decides who your hero is around here, not YOU.kalm wrote:And you are correct, politically he appears to be center left.

But I'm guessing you're aware that, just like you're aware that Obama is no more my hero than I'm guessing George Bush was yours.

That would be another reason to like grayson - champion of the ordinary man, admirer of the ordinary man's music.

Grayson's far from an ordinary man... a "self made" multi millionaire trial lawyer who politically was in the right place at the right time and managed to get elected to congress from what had been a pretty safe GOP district in Central FL. The only thing that Grayson has in common with the "ordinary man" in our culture as it is portrayed in the MSM is his severe lack of couth and class.kalm wrote:That would be another reason to like grayson - champion of the ordinary man, admirer of the ordinary man's music.

You and I must watch different msm's. I see Republicans making just as crass and uncouth comments as Grayson has all the time.blueballs wrote:Grayson's far from an ordinary man... a "self made" multi millionaire trial lawyer who politically was in the right place at the right time and managed to get elected to congress from what had been a pretty safe GOP district in Central FL.

I'm also amazed with how he's portrayed in the MSM. If a member of the GOP was as crass, as uncouth, as unethical, as mean spirited as him that person would be tarred and feathered by the MSM, not held up as a "maverick" and "new kind of pol."
There are a LOT of folks in his district who are very PO'ed with him, but for some reason the FL GOP seems unable to recruit a suitable opponent for him later this year. Very strange indeed...
