No, because assh*les are actually useful.

He’ll be gone soon.

Along with Grayson, Florida boasts some of the worst. Corine Brown (Go gatah), Alan Boyd and Wasserman Shultz (holder of the bingo voters) are three I would not mind seeing packing their bags November.

talking tersely to Republicans

Oh, is that what he was doing? All those hideous insults, all that deranged and foul invective, all those filthy insults, that was just "speaking tersely"?

Grayso.... talking tersely to Republicans?

More like personal insults and nasty remarks.

Couldn’t happen to a more deserving guy.
