REP. JIM MCDERMOTT SHOVING COAL IN STOCKING: ...Here's your Christmas gift, right? We're going to say to 2.5 million unemployed people, no unemployment benefits because its only for 2 months and we can't... There's every excuse in the book you can give, but when they get up on Christmas there's going to be coal in their sock! The working poor of this country are counting on that tax break. They've gone out and bought gifts for their kids! And they think they are going to pay for them because they have this tax reduction and you are taking it away from them after the spent the money on the Christmas gifts. That's your lump of coal to the middle class!

Thought the EPA stopped all coal production to make way for wind and solar? Why are the middle class unemployed?

Merry Christmas

Coal is VERBOTEN!!

Good little future democrats get a Carbon Credit certificate from Gore-Bull Enterprises.

Future conservatives get a free pass to FEMA Camp.

Good ole Jimmy!

This is the scum who illegally released an illegal intercept of Newt Gingrich’s cell phone conversation. Was sued by John Boehner for six figures and lost. Yeah, another law abiding citizen just looking out for us!

McDermott used to come into the coffee shop I frequented in Port Townsend before bragging about going out to catch HIS fish. He felt he owned them. He was always red faced and his speech slurred...

McDermott is one of those untouchables in D.C. It does not matter how outrageous he is or what crime he may commit, he will always pull numbers above 70% in any election. He should have kept his white beard though that he shaved off a number of years ago. It would have been a little more convincing, doing this coal in the stocking bit.

Future conservatives get a free pass to FEMA Camp.

But no exit pass, unless sincere conversion.

No snow in SE Wisconsin ... ice on the nearby pond reached 1/16” maybe ... Up north is likely colder.
