I wondered why the Huffingtonpost mentioned the smell of alcohol on everyones breath. I wonder how they can explain these same people being sober in all their interviews and still having the same stance?

Fla. got rid of this lunatic once. We need to put forth a very concerted effort to do it again for good.

Ha ha. With Boehner as Speaker, what do you expect?

Anything that helps the GOP stiffen its spine and find its Inner Churchill is okay with me.

Thanks Tailgunner Joe.
In a Tuesday interview, Rep. Alan Grayson charged that Republican House members have been literally intoxicated while casting votes on the continuing resolutions... Noting "a number of public reports that you can smell alcohol on their breath as they’re voting gleefully to shut down the government and create chaos," Grayson said that he had personally witnessed GOP colleagues smelling like alcohol... The Florida congressman declined to name names... Politico reporter Ginger Gibson tweeted Saturday that she could "smell the booze wafting from members as they walk off the floor." ... "It’s a fact we all have to live with," Grayson told Salon, "and it’s making them violent and abusive towards America." Grayson also blamed today's shutdown on Republicans' "anarchist ideology" and "blind hatred of government,"
Partisan Media Shills / Incompetent Demagogue ping.

Grayson is a flake, pure and simple. Why anyone listens to anything he says is beyond me. He needs help. There’s a psychiatrist out there just waiting for the chance.

No mention of bourbon...yet! But, I'm thinking Senator Cruz is a Rebecca Creek kind of guy:

“I wonder if he received any reports about their breath.”

Yes, it’s called “penis breath.”

There was a time when a congressman who spoke that way about another would have been challenged to a duel, or beaten with a cane.

It's getting close to that time again.

Literally? What other kind of drinking is there?

"Grayson said that he had personally witnessed GOP colleagues smelling like alcohol."

Smelling like alcohol!

That's one reason why Obma and other democrats prefer pot and maybe a little blow - when they can afford it.

Grayson just moved up a few places on my “Bat-to-the-Head” list.
