Best quotes:
The rich means you. For example, Democrats will only tax the rich. Translation: Democrats will only tax you.
Diplomacy equals magic. "Democrats will protect America from Iranian nukes through tough, principled diplomacy" translates into "Democrats will protect America from Iranian nukes through tough, principled magic".
Importantly, end means lose. Democrats will end the Iraq war. Translation: Democrats will lose the Iraq war.
The only thing that would have improved this video is if it had cut to a shot of the expression on Nancy "Pioneer" Pelosi's face.
I haven't read it yet, but Bernard Goldberg's latest book, Crazies to the Left of Me, Wimps to the Right: How One Side Lost Its Mind and the Other Lost Its Nerve, came to mind when I watched this video. The GOP -- and the Right in general -- has lost its nerve. They've stopped fighting, stopped attacking. They've just rolled over and taken everything the Democrats have tossed our way, so to see a Republican in the House do something this, well, ballsy makes me want to cheer.

I heard somebody say that if our legislators were true to their convictions we would have fistfights on the floor. I'm not sure if fistfights are such a good idea, but it would restore some confidence if political enemies were actually treated like political enemies.

Awesome... this is exactly what I want my representatives in the House to be doing. Not solving the current energy/oil crisis, debating national security issues or working to reform programs like social security...
No, I want them to give us an english lesson.
Again, awesome.

DispassionateConservative,
You mean like having hearings over the blatant smears serious allegations in Scott McClellans' book?

DispassionateConservative,
Or, having hearings into steroid use in baseball?

SYB,
Do you see me on here cheering for either of those things?
It's fun to throw a little crap in the direction of your political enemies, but in the end, your hands are still covered in shit.

Hey, any time congress is spending NOT creating another law, the better off we all are. Might as well slam some democrats in the process.
People who cringe at that video are the same people that are to blame for John McCain getting the nomination. Moderates and leftists.
