Do we have a pro-mUSlim or p.c. correct media that does not report this stuff?

[Old Sarge]

'It's totally absurd that the federal budget would carry a rider restricting D.C. abortions,' one of the hunger-strikers, Sam Jewler, told the Examiner.

News flash, Leftist scum: you ARE an abortion.

Can I have a couple containers of BBQ Pork Ribs delivered to the so-called Congressman?

[popdonnelly]

And in other news, the Democrats in Congress are a bunch of leftist idiots.

[hal ogen]

this ellison fool/loser is just trying to lose a little weight for the “holidays”. 24-hour hunger strike...what a laugh. Someone arrest this tool and really put him on a hunger strike.

Ellison is fat. He could fast for a year. One day? BFD!

[Huskrrrr]

BFD. Symbolism over substance.

[Danae]

OOOOoooooooooooo a 24 hour hunger strike.

That’s nothing. Go Ghandi or shut up.

[no dems]

he’ll forgo food or drink for one day

Wow! That long? He could die.

(Do I really need the sarc. tag?)

[doc1019]

24 hours without eating is not a hunger strike. How about a hunger strike that last for a month or two ... now that would be saying something.

[WashingtonSource]

Wow. 24 whole hours. That’s not a hunger strike. That’s a diet.

[Tzimisce]

It’s high time the miserable, greedy, thieving US taxpayer be brought to heel.

I’ve always wondered about hunger strikes. What is the point, really? As if the rest of the world is going to change according to your demands because you are throwing a tantrum that is only self-destructive...at least that’s what it looks like to me.

——A Congressman started a 24-hour hunger strike Thursday evening as a sign of solidarity with four Occupy DC protesters who have fasted for more than a week.——

I once fasted for 10days, just juice and water for spiritual reasons

Once you get past three days the hunger pains go away. I could have gone longer but I was starting to get weak

A 24 hour fast is not a big deal at all, actually rather pathetic as a solidarity type move...

The only good thing he will accomplish will be to give his colon a vacation

[Chode]

24 hole hours... well golly gee

[DesertSapper]

24 hours? That’s it? What a wuss.

[reagan_fanatic]

Anything to sow the seeds of discontent and further his goal of one day instituting sharia law in this country.

[rabidralph]

I never understood hunger strikes and why people gave in to the strikers’ demands. If they want to starve, let them starve.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

At the end of his farcical fast, will someone send this schmuck a pork chop?

[little jeremiah]

I wish he’d go on a 6 month hunger strike. Pleeeeease.
