Rep. Grayson wants to send critic to jail for five years

WASHINGTON — Not everyone thinks imitation is the best form of flattery.

In fact, U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson of Orlando took such offense at a parody website aimed at unseating him that the freshman Democrat has asked that U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder investigate the Lake County activist who started the anti-Grayson website “mycongressmanisnuts.com.”

Specifically, Grayson accuses Republican activist Angie Langley of lying to federal elections. His four-page complaint highlights the fact that the Clermont resident lives outside his district, but that Langley still uses the term “my” in “mycongressmanisnuts.com.”

“Ms. Langley has deliberately masqueraded as a constituent of mine, in order to try to create the false appearance that she speaks for constituents who don’t support me,” writes Grayson. “[She] has chosen a name for her committee that is utterly tasteless and juvenile.”

Grayson’s office did not respond with comment other than to confirm the letter exists — including its request that Langley be fined and “imprisoned for five years.”

Prying these bastards out of power may be harder than we think.

Charge Rep. Grayson with treason. The penalty is death.

“[She] has chosen a name for her committee that is utterly tasteless and juvenile.”

Since when has such conduct disturbed this utterly tastless and juvenile jack@ss? He's #1 on my Jews Who Embarras Me list.

Although I disagree with his characterization, I dont believe any law prohibits an individual from engaging in tasteless or juvenile speech.

And the chances of Holder prosecuting her are ....?

Back when we were operation the chances of this going anywhere were slim to none, but , in the age of obama, the chances of him getting what he wants are at least 50-50.

I would like to know if this wimp takes a single dollar from someone who lives outside his district. I guarantee you he does. What a cry baby. Let’s see what Herr Holder thinks.

Pretty amazing that U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson doesn’t know what the first amendment of the Constitution defends.

Wonder if he needs a copy?

Check out Langley's website http://www.mycongressmanisnuts.com/



It's very similar to the nutcase congressman's website congressmanwithguts.com

Grayson is a quantifiable pansy in the same league of gentlemen as pansy-in-chief Barry.
