Grayson calls Republicans 'knuckle-dragging Neanderthals'
CNN ^ | 9/30/09 | staff

Posted on 09/30/2009 6:59:07 PM PDT by pissant

WASHINGTON (CNN) — Freshman Congressman Alan Grayson refused to back down Wednesday from controversial remarks he made on the House floor the night before saying the Republican health care plan calls for sick people to "die quickly."

In fact, Grayson — a Democrat who represents a central Florida swing district that includes Orlando — made another floor speech in which he apologized to the dead and their families for not acting sooner on health care reform, and then defended both speeches on CNN's "The Situation Room."

I wish they were. At least Neanderthals seemed to have some testosterone.

The boy appears to have a few mental “issues”. He may want to go see a shrink.

Grayson is such a clod. His close relationship with Huffington Post, and today their position of approval for Polanski's rape of young girls, really makes me wonder if he's of sound mind.

Has the local Child Protective Agency looked to the safety of the young children who live with him?

He is a wealthy NY’er originally from the Bronx. A Robert Wexler in central FL. His district is not that liberal. He probably knows he is toast in 2010 and is angling for a job in the Obama Admin or a run for Gov.

Glad to hear its a swing district...sounds like a real high-probability pick-up.

Is this like Algore’s conservative “extra chromosome” comment?

I love this Grayson guy.
He’s really blown a fuse upstairs.
It’s like he knows he’s going down so he’s going to go down in flames.

Too bad he won’t be around to continue making 0bama look like a fool and hypocrite after next election.

He had a town hall not that long ago... stacked the hall with union members/Democrats. That was bad enough, but then Grayson brought his three children to the meeting and used them as an excuse to leave early and to caution people not to say harsh things. Now that’s pathetic!!!

He loads the joint with knuckle-dragging union thugs and has the gall to call Republicans Neanderthals? The boy isn’t playing with a full deck if you ask me.

Another democrat lawyer who thinks he knows something about health care. Just more proof of how pitiful and pathetic the House of Representatives is. If they put a gigantic Starbucks in the Capitol in place of Congress it would increase the usefulness of the activity in this building by at least 300%.

That video of him showing the signs “Die Quickly” needs to be in commercials in every winnable Congressional district race in 2010. Powderkeg!

I'll be holding my breath waiting for Queen Nancy to have a vote to admonish Grayson. /s

Grayson should apologize to Neanderthals—they weren’t knuckle-draggers. He sounds like he’s more of an Australopithecine.

This Grayson is the same doofus that Neil Cavuto turned into a blubbering fool when they were debating the executive pay issue a couple of months ago. What an arrogant moron he is!
