Look like he and the Dems are pickin' up where Alan Grayson left off..
Momma always said,,
If ya cain’t say nothing nice about someone, just toss some mud at ‘em and run away squealing like a pig.. They’ll understand it’s just your true nature shinin’ thru.
He should stand by his comments! However, Barry should denounce them if he really believes the rhetoric is too divisive. I’m waiting on Barry, but I don’t see it happening...
Just great.
“Doubling down” on stupid, outrageous, and utterly contemptible statements (and policies) seems to be the order of the day, amongst Democrats, these days.
Well, I used to call Chuck Schumer the Jewish Obersturmbannfuehrer of the Senate. I guess there has to be one for the House as well.
Hey, Rep. Cohen, that civil enough for you??
Calling conservatives socialists is stupid. Okay if they want to call RINO’s that though.
He’s a white liberal representing a district that is 85 % black. This is the song and dance he feels he needs to do to keep his seat. ... So very pathetic and whore-like.
Career Politician, never held a real job.

Stephen Ira “Stevo” Cohen (born May 24, 1949) is the U.S. Representative for Tennessee’s 9th congressional district, serving since 2007. He is a member of the Democratic Party. He previously served as a Tennessee State Senator for 24 years.
Tennessee’s 9th district includes almost three-fourths of Memphis. Cohen is Tennessee’s first Jewish congressman. Cohen is the only non-black representing a black majority district in Congress.[1]
While serving for three years as Legal Advisor for the Memphis Police Department, Cohen rose to political prominence when he was elected to the Tennessee Constitutional Convention of 1977 at the age of 27. The Convention elected him its vice president.[6] Cohen was then elected to serve as a commissioner on the Shelby County Commission, an office he held from 1978 to 1980.[2] During his time at the Commission, Cohen was instrumental in the creation of The Med, a community-funded regional hospital.[6] In 1980, Cohen served as an interim Shelby County General Sessions Court judge.[2] He has also served as a delegate to the 1980, 1992, and 2004 Democratic National Conventions.[2]
Hey Coburn, why don’t you sit by this guy at the SOTU?...
Sad and shameful.
My sister and family live in Memphis (well, really the outskirts). This is EXACTLY what you would expect from a democrat rep from that district. Remember the Fords?????
IMO, Cohen should look up the term Kapo and see if the shoe fits.
Speaking of panties, here's the tough guy herself.
And, another thing. He looks like if he ever saw a Nazi, Islamist, or a Boy Scout with a trout fillet knife, he’d befoul himself and run away as fast as he could. I doubt him or anyone in his family has any mil service at all. Bald, naked, big talk.
Apparently, the idiot is clueless concerning Godwin’s Law.....=.=
IMO, the meme that the NAZI Party was "right wing" is the greatest propaganda achievement of the 20th Century. This movie will destroy that myth. It's high time.
Read some of the comments over at SFGate.
Those of you who know of me, know I am Jewish. I am also proud to be a conservative.
Politics aside, I am absolutely appalled at the comments of Rep. Cohen. While he may be Jewish, I can assure you he does not share a history like so many of us.
My grandmother was the ONLY surviving member of her family. The others were murdered in camps. Included in this number was my grandmothers younger brother who she last saw when they were separated into groups upon their arrival. Her little brother was three.
Though she was proud to be a survivor, she could not speak of the horrors she lived through as a young girl. We only know the stories as she was able to write what was too painful to speak.
Had ANYONE that Rep. Cohen loved or even knew lived through such horror, he would never be stupid enough to make such an asinine comparison. Best I can tell, the Republicans who oppose Obamacare are not planning on exterminating an entire race.
Unless genocide is being planned, as a REAL Jew, it is reprehensible to use ANY comparison of the Holocaust to any political banter.
Can you imagine the uprising had any Republican made comparisons of Obama to Hitler on the floor of the House of Representatives? The entire media would be frothing at the mouth for an execution.
Rep. Cohen- if you do not know the definition of a KAPO......you should learn. At least to this Jew, you are revolting traitor to the millions who died as you seek to use THEIR memory to dramatize your misguided beliefs.
Ta’ase li tova Steven!
This is the same guy who sponsors bills when he doesn’t even know the content.
That tv moment was gold.
