Can’t believe Tea Party type Amash stirred up this kind of nonsense over a mild joke.
Faced with criticism, McCain said in another tweet, “lighten up folks, can’t everyone take a joke.” That didn't satisfy Rep. Justin Amash of Michigan, who tweeted, “Maybe you should wisen up & not make racist jokes.” …
Amash defending the biggest racist on the planet like that makes me look askance at the fellow. Another one who rode in on the “shellacking” ready to do a sudden about-face?

Sorry, this is one time I’m with McCain! Amash needs to go score media points somewhere else.

Born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and raised in Kentwood, Michigan, Amash is a second generation Arab-American of Palestinian Christian and Syrian Greek Orthodox descent. His father is a Palestinian business owner, whose family immigrated to the United States in 1956 through the sponsorship of a Christian pastor and his family.

Well what do you know? Amash is an Arab. I know Iranians aren’t, but it seems he should not be worried about our enemies, and he endorsed Ron Paul for Prez... Says all I need to know about him.

There goes McCain again, calling A-jad a monkey, that’s a compliment, A-Jad is actually a turd.

What’s with all the McLame publicity the last few months? He’s working an angle somewhere.

Amash was the big hero on FR a few weeks ago for being a maverick or something. Pointing out he was a Ron Paul adherent did no good; people were determined to love him.

Now he's mad at comments against Ahmadinejad? Please. The anti-war sentiments of the libertarian Paultard is showing.

Was Amash upset back-in-the-day over this stuff?
