What? Insulting to moon worshippers?
How retarded...
Cuz that’s WAY more important than working on say, a budget?
You’d think there were more important things going on right now.
I’m so relieved that they are spending time removing the word lunatic from the laws. I was worried they would try to do something about the economy, jobs, deficit, debt or energy. /s
No problem. Remove ‘lunatic’, insert ‘Obama’.
Orwellian.
Doing the Lord’s work. Good grief.
Save the symbolic gestures for another time.

what a bunch of Crapo!
What a ridiculous waste of time. What next? Psycho, psychotic... Retarded is still used in the ICD-9, shall we legislate that word also?
Roger Waters isn’t going to like this.
Will these Pink Floyd songs be banned?

The lunatic is on the grass.
The lunatic is on the grass.
Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs.
Got to keep the loonies on the path.
The lunatic is in the hall.
The lunatics are in my hall.
The paper holds their folded faces to the floor
And every day the paper boy brings more.
And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
And if there is no room upon the hill
And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too
I’ll see you on the dark side of the moon.
The lunatic is in my head.
The lunatic is in my head
You raise the blade, you make the change
You re-arrange me ‘til I’m sane.
You lock the door
And throw away the key
There’s someone in my head but it’s not me.
And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear.
And if the band you’re in starts playing different tunes
I’ll see you on the dark side of the moon.
“I can’t think of anything to say except...
I think it’s marvelous! HaHaHa!”

So I guess now we’ll have to go back to referring to politicians as politicians. Well, that sucks.
But it just MAY be a lunatic you’re looking for!
Now how are we supposed to accurately define Liberals?
We have no more deaf people in this country, hearing impaired. No one's blind anymore, 'partially sighted or visually impaired.' We have no more stupid people. Everyone has a 'learning disorder'...or he's 'minimally exceptional.' How would you like to be told that about your child? "He's minimally exceptional." "Oohh, thank god for that."
Psychologists actually have started calling ugly people, those with 'severe appearance deficits.' It's getting so bad, that any day now I expect to hear a rape victim referred to as an 'unwilling sperm recipient.'
And we have no more old people in this country. No more old people. We shipped them all away, and we brought in these senior citizens. Isn't that a typically American twentieth century phrase? Bloodless, lifeless, no pulse in one of them. A senior citizen. But I've accepted that one, I've come to terms with it. I know it's to stay. We'll never get rid of it. That's what they're going to be called, so I'll relax on that, but the one I do resist. The one I keep resisting is when they look at an old guy and they'll say, "Look at him Dan! He's ninety years young." Imagine the fear of aging that reveals. To not even be able to use the word "old" to describe somebody. To have to use an antonym. And fear of aging is natural. It's universal. Isn't it? We all have that. No one wants to get old. No one wants to die, but we do! So we BS ourselves. I started BS'ing myself when I got to my forties. As soon as I got into my forties I'd look in the mirror and I'd say, "well, I...I guess I'm getting...older." Older sounds a little better than old doesn't it? Sounds like it might even last a little longer. BS, I'm getting old! And it's okay, because thanks to our fear of death in this country, I won't have to die...I'll pass away. Or I'll expire like a magazine subscription. If it happens in the hospital, they'll call it a terminal episode. The insurance company will refer to it as 'negative patient-care outcome.' And if it's the result of malpractice, they'll say it was a 'therapeutic misadventure. '
I'm telling you, some of this language makes me want to vomit. Well, maybe not vomit. Makes me want to engage in an 'involuntary personal protein spill.'

Because THIS is what’s important in our nation this year...while you’re at it, include a ban on the use of “niggardly” and other such racist slurs. /s
It creates a hostile work environment for sooooo any of them...
If we eliminated lunatics from the Senate, we’d have no Senate.....and that would be a good start.
It is so good to see these elected folks working on the important and critical issues of our time.
Where would we be without such strong, courageous, dedicated and intelligent leaders?
I think we should replace the word politician with the word “lunatic”.
