Politics Rep. Alan Grayson: Olympia Snowe Was Not Elected President Last November

Posted by Dan Savage on Fri, Oct 9, 2009 at 10:33 AM

Oh my God, I LOVE THIS GUY.

A Democrat with guts and a spine—we need more like him. And you know what? Thank God for YouTube. At the end of this clip you'll notice that Grayson is speaking to an empty House chamber. Before YouTube, a handful of insomniacs and goo-goo geeks might have caught this speech—and Grayson's earlier speech—on C-SPAN, in the middle of at night. But most Americans wouldn't have seen it, and no one would have heard of Grayson, if it weren't for YouTube. (Via Americablog.)

If he ever runs for President of the US, he's got my vote. I don't care who he might be running against. He must have brass ones. BIG brass ones. It's a pity there aren't more in Congress like him.

I would expect nothing more from this Nazi fascist who compares healthcare to the holocaust..and for those that said Amen, brother...obviously, you have little insight to the buuttons this limelight seeking man is pushing....but then, I would expect little more from those that would agree with him....healthcare to the holocaust???? What planet did this man originate from...what rock did he slide himself out from under! I need to laugh, a man truly reflective of our congressional leaders and those that voted for them....
