This is the same teabagger who used campaign funds to buy a yacht

Most of you are familiar with Juanitas favorite yachtsman, Republican Congressman Randy Neugebauer of deep West Texas. The district that Randy represents is landlocked and 95% dessert. The other 5% is asphalt.
However, Randy bought a damn yacht with his campaign donations. Not a bass boat. Not even a ski boat. Its a yacht. In fact, heres what it looks like, she shows a picture to everyone and they all say, Damn, girl, that a yacht!
Here is a picture of the yacht purchased with campaign funds
It is hard to take anything that this idiot says seriously

According to Juanita Jean, CREW has filed an ethics complaint against this idiot http://www.juanitajean.com/2013/10/04/at-the-very-least-someone-should-sink-his-yacht/
Well, the good folks over at CREW did more than just get upset. They did something.Today, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) filed a complaint with the Office of Congressional Ethics against Rep. Randy Neugebauer (R-TX) for conduct that reflects discreditably upon the House.
I know. Its hard to believe that he hasnt been be brought up before on conduct that reflects discreditably upon the House. Of course, Tom DeLay and Louie Gohmert lowered the standard on that pretty good.Rep. Neugebauers demeaning treatment of the ranger reinforces the commonly held belief that members of Congress are arrogant and have an over-inflated sense of superiority, continued [CREW Executive Director Melanie] Sloan. The House cannot permit its members to berate federal employees for a government shutdown for which Congress is responsible. Rep. Neugebauer needs to be held accountable for his reprehensible conduct.
This is good news.
