Representative Alan Grayson (D-Fla) has filed a complaint with U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder demanding that a pesky critic of his be prosecuted. The critic is one Angie Langley—originator of a web site called “mycongressmanisnuts.com.”
“It’s a sad day for America when a nobody like Ms. Langley can harass a member of congress with impunity,” Grayson complained. “People should be taught respect for those of us who govern them. We shouldn’t have to endure the kind of round-the-clock mockery being dished out by the people who live under us.”
The basis for Grayson’s contention that Langley ought to go to jail is the fact that she does not live in his congressional district. “Calling her web site ‘mycongressmanisnuts’ is untrue and misleading,” Grayson complained. “She doesn’t even live in my district. Those who don’t live in the district shouldn’t be allowed to mislead the real constituents who do.”
Grayson insisted that his acceptance of campaign donations from persons who don’t live in the district is different. “Every legitimate candidate for office gets financial help from outside the district,” Grayson contended. “This is a normal part of the political process. But Langley is a rogue operating beyond the bounds of established procedures.”
The congressman insisted that only recognized candidates be permitted to criticize incumbent officeholders. “I can deal with opposing candidates on a level playing field,” Grayson said. “I can’t hit back at a non-candidate like Langley. She has nothing to gain. She’s invulnerable to anything I might throw at her. That’s unfair.”

Getting hard to tell the difference between satire and reality these days.
Is this the moron who had to apologize a few weeks ago for something??????????????
This man is nuts. He is completely out of his mind. What a fruitcake.
More proof that Liberals do not want free speech in any form. Why do you think they want to take our guns away? The second amendment is the only think that keeps people like Obama, Pelosi and Grayson from behaving like the Stalinists they really are.
This "satire" has captured the true feelings of the liberal Democrats.
Reminds me of Barbara Boxer's comments to a general.
After voting him out, Grayson’s consituents should either pelt him with rotten tomatoes & eggs, then tar & feather him.
So instead of keeping his big mouth shut, he has now guaranted thousands of visitors to this website. What an idiot.
UH GUYS THIS IS SATIRE!
I believed it at first as well.
This is “Die quickly!” Grayson — but I don’t think he’s ever apologized. He has the intellect of a night crawler.
I hope some naive people now begin to realize how dangerous these leftists like Grayson are.
IN 1917 they simply hanged and shot their detractors...now they appeal to Holder, aka the State, for relief.
I am not sure which is more dangerous....a quick end or a slow death by water torture.
It sure sounds like something he would say.
“People should be taught respect for those of us who govern them. We shouldn’t have to endure the kind of round-the-clock mockery being dished out by the people who live under us.”
Hum, just curious — Where did he stand on this issue with the lame-stream-media was spewing the same crap about “W.”
I guess my only comment to this dumbarse grayson is — “Good God man, if you are going to go crazy you really shouldn’t do it publicly...”
Lets hope his district has had enough and will show him the door in November of 2010.
Either this is a joke or this guy is nuts.
Actually, it’s both. Notice that the article comes from a Satire website. But on the other hand, he is nuts, and personally, I don’t know why anyone would bother to satirize him. The truth is entertaining enough without satire.
Even without your ping, I almost fell for it. Already Mister Weisenheimer, you’re good, too good.
[Smile.]
Merry Christmas.
Either [the DNC] is a joke or nuts.
“I believed it at first as well.”
I pinged people on my list by accident to a Semmens satire thread ... not once but twice!
This reminds me of the time when Rush asked, “Who wrote this? Al Gore or the Unibomber?”
