Former U.S. Representative Alan Grayson paid a visit to The Ed Show, telling host Ed Schultz that, were he still in Congress, he would decidedly not vote for any cuts to Medicare or Social Security, and he would be “grabbing everybody else by the collar and telling them they should do the same.”
Furthermore, he suggests that a great way of cutting back would be to end our current wars in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya. He also offered deep criticism of both parties:
Washington is now divided between the meanies and the weenies; it’s the real two party system today in Washington, the meanies and the weenies. The meanies want to take Social Security and Medicare away from grandma and grandpa, and the weenies are quite willing to go along with it and “compromise.” Well, people need Social Security to live, and there’s no compromise between life and death, there’s no middle ground.
Grayson announced he is emphatically opposed to this sort of compromise, adding that he’d like to see Medicare expanded to cover dental work, hearing aids, etc. Schultz then asked, bluntly, “Is this President weak? Why isn’t he saying what you’re saying?” Grayson replied diplomatically:
He’s my President, he’s the leader of my party, so I don’t know exactly what to say. But I do know this: All of this compromise has not accomplished anything useful for anybody on our side. It hasn’t done any good at all. The President should be saying to people, “The Republican party is cruel. The Republican party is bigoted. The Republican party cares only about tax breaks for the rich.”
Grayson then announced, right there and then, that he’s running for Congress once again.
Watch the segment, via MSNBC:
Video at link.
I’d suspect syphilis, but that would presuppose someone willing to sleep with him.
This guy is the poster boy for leftist douchebaggery.
How could they make a video of this guy talking? Wouldn’t the spittle from the foam around his mouth cloud the lens in seconds?
Alan, I’m not sure that being both a meanie and a weenie is the way to go, but that’s just me.
They both sound like Democrats.

Not necessarily.
If I remember correctly, syphillis is thought to have its origins in bestiality.
Grayson may have found a willing goat or pig.
has he had another stay at the mental facility he was sent to back in 2005??
He's delusional.
I would still say most likely rape.
He actually posted at DU yesterday: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x4915708
Well, assuming he wins the primary, Republicans should be able to move this seat to the safe category for 2012.
Why didn't he do all this when he was in office?
Grayson definitely falls into the weenie category. I hope he runs. He can be the face of the Democratic party. Crazy, commie, foaming at the mouth, America-hating liberal.
Well, he has plenty of time on his hands thanks to to the Florida Tea Party.
Alan Grayson is a lump of excrement.
The meanies want to destroy our economy and detroy our jobs while the weenies are the guys we sent there that promised to stop them.
Ever notice how Democrats do what they claim their opponents are doing??
Congressman Grayson twice broke ranks with Democratic leadership and joined Republicans to oppose the raising of the federal debt limit (Roll no. 46, 2/4/10, Roll no. 988 12/16/09). He said at the time of the February vote, “We need to live within our means. We need to eliminate wasteful spending. If we did those two simple things, we would not need to raise the debt limit.”
