GOP Senator Offers A Valium To Dem Senator Ron Wyden During Mnuchin Hearing!
Gateway Pundit ^ | January 19,2017 | Cristina Laila

Fireworks! Senator Pat Roberts of Kansas (R) offers Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon (D) a Valium during the Treasury confirmation hearing.

Senator Roberts: “Senator Wyden, I’ve got a Valium pill here if you might wanna take it before the second round…just a suggestion”

Senator Wyden: “Mr. Chairman, Mr. Chairman, I hope that comment about Valium doesn’t set the tone for 2017 in this committee. I like Senator Roberts but I…I just can’t quite believe he would say that to a distinguished Senator from Oregon.

Senator Roberts: I said that to the President of the United States at one point…

Watch the heated exchange between these two men… I sure do hope this sets the tone for 2017!

Did Wyden take it?

Judging from his reaction, he should have. He ramped up a little bit. :)

Is valium non-prescription? Could we all each mail Wyden a pill?

If it's prescription only, we might be forced to send him second best: Coloring Books.

#32 Most likely not. Given they are manufacturing and smoking meth in Schumer’s office.

True Story....just heard it from one of the 17 Security Agencies. /S

I am guessing it is prescription and I agree, play dough and coloring books. Maybe a stuffed unicorn.

Some of the Democrat questioners have the manners of snotty arrogant pigs. The way they talk to decent honest members of society is disgraceful. After they have questioned and abused a potential appointee, it is good to see someone obliquely stick up for the appointee by lampooning a liberal gasbag.

It was Bruce Herschensohn, a very great man. He was even with Boxer. She barely pulled it out. The rest of the California GOP went down in flames. 1992. Horrible year.

Thank you. I should have looked it up before I commented. But it certainly has been all downhill from there for Republicans in California.

It would be difficult to substantiate now, but I had heard that law enforcement was willing to endorse him, but he didn’t think he needed it, and didn’t actively try to get their endorsement. It might have made the difference had he done so.

Or Seroquel, an atypical antipsychotic. If it doesn’t set their mood straight, it’ll give them a long rest.

Is that really how a member of the US Senate refers to himself—as “the distinguished senator from (the senator’s home state)”?

Woohoo! More winning. This time from a GOP Senator no less. They keep this up I may start being impressed. Love it.

HAHAHAHA.

“I just can’t quite believe he would say that to a distinguished Senator from Oregon.”

So humble. Referring to himself as a distinguished senator.

“The libs dish it out, but they sure cannot take it.”

Yep. Hypocrite, thy name is Democrat. Snobby, know-it-all brats that need a good take-down on a regular basis until they’re broken.

It should have offered him an Awphucital, no I can’t find the spoof poster. Roberts would have brought down the house even more...

The distinguished Oregon Senator lives in New York. Only in Oregon are the libs so stupid they reelect a Sinator who hasn’t lived in the state for 20 years and lives in NYC when not in DC.
