Did you see Traficant on TV yesterday? Oh my, he is colorful. He is crazier than a loon, and yet he said a lot of things that are true, and that other politicians seem to be afraid to say.

He is crazier than a loon,

Anyone who speaks out against the IRS, Illegal Immigration, environmentalists, and Janet Reno needs a shrink. The house should consider voting not guilty by reason of insanity.

He remains true to character - some of his two minute speeches on the House floor have been priceless. "Beam me up Scotty!"

I was making the same observations. Instead of running from reporters and media cameras with his jacket pulled over his head, he was strolling amongst them shooting the breeze and working the room. If speech could be likened to food, his is like fruit salad. Each piece a different color, texture and flavor, but together makes sense and is palatable. On the other hand, only two other people have struck me the same way. One was Charles Manson and the other Ted Turner. Traficant is teddy-bear soup compared to those guys, and entertaining. I would be a hypocrite if didn't say that I have enjoyed every minute he has spent bugging the hell out of Democrats.
