Just listening to a little bit of this guy on Fox gets me to believe he has one hell of an eye opening book to write some day. Sooner better than later.

Massa is about as conservative as Anthony Weiner, except Weiner respects the opinions of the majority of his constituents while Massa said he’d vote against his constituent’s wishes. Get in bed with this guy, prepare to come out with more than fleas.

“I am showering, naked as a jaybird, and here comes Rahm Emanuel, not even with a towel wrapped around his tush, poking his finger in my chest, yelling at me because I wasn’t going to vote for the president’s budget,” Massa said.

Hey Massa, that wasn't Rahm's finger he was poking you in the chest with.

Thanks for talking teh libs talking points and running with them. Politico should be asking if the Obama Admin intimidates then smears Congressman for not supporting ObamaCare instead of their libe spin that Massa is a friend of Conservatives. The left always turns it around.

So why resign. If it was a bulshit accusation. And who will be replacing him. When?

Politico is just lamenting that they do not have a libtard/progressive hero of their own...opps, my bad, they do: Barack Hussein Obama, aka, Jack Squat.

I think you’re right, if we haven’t all learned the story of “The Moderate Democrat”, it’s time we go back to school.

Still, Operation Chaos continues, having this guy out in the media telling the world how Chicago thug politcs works is a good thing. Just like the snake, know what he is before you get too close.

““If the stories that are circulating are true about what really happened, the Republicans are going to hold up someone as the cause célèbre who harassed male members of his staff,” said a senior Democratic strategist. “Is that really where they want to be?”

What,wwit are they implying that there is something wrong with possibly being gay? That’s what I get from what they are implying.

Make no mistake: Rahm, Barack, Nancy and Harry love the media they are getting out of this. The other bozos on Capitol Hill — few of whom have skeleton-free closets — now all know what awaits them if they step out of line.

The choice is clear for those Dems whose contituents oppose ObamaCare — they can either risk defeat in November or be assured of disgrace now and defeat in November.

He ain't my hero. Good riddance to another self-serving political creature.

I think it is way past time to hit the reset button and throw them all out and start over.

I heard a recording of him agreeing to sign on with The Progressive Caucus and joining them with killing the bill

HE AGREED TO VOTE AGAINST IT BECAUSE IT WASN"T FAR ENOUGH TO THE LEFT....BECAUSE IT DOESN'T HAVE GOVERNMENT OPTION!

They’re all rats. I don’t want to befriend the guy and he isn’t a hero to me politico. But he is incredibly entertaining, reflects badly on the Democratic party and it’s not impossible one rat will turn on another if they see it to their benefit, Unsavory characters do it all the time. So...let’s see what he has to say ad if there is any truth to it. Fair is fair after Foley right? LOL

Massa should avoid high rises, elevators, parks, etc. and he should not start the car...

I know nothing about Massa’s politics, but respect that fact that he is the only Dem in Congress that says what the others are too afraid to - that Rahm is a sophmoric creep that has no business being on the public payroll. My question is why don’t the other Dems in Congress have the sense of responsibility to call out Rahm on his B.S. and instead, just passively just take orders from the White House when they should be taking orders from the citizens of their district?

Since when is popping a bowl of popcorn and pulling up a comfy chair to sit and watch a ‘progressive’ catfight making some libtard “our hero”?

If he turns out to be a liar, he goes back under the bus we drug him out from. I don’t think anyone has made him the offer to switch parties, have they?

I find it hard to believe that the guy was so drunk that he would risk his career, marriage and reputation by being serious in the remark he made to his staffer. Had he cornered him in a coat room or something a put some moves on him, that would be entirely different. But, to say what he said, at a party in front of the entire staff.......nah...
I just don't understand why the dude resigned. AND I STILL WANT TO KNOW IF HE CAN WITHDRAW HIS RESIGNATION.
