Steve King and friends how nice
SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) _ Iowa Congressman Steve King has announced that he'll lead a group of Republican lawmakers called the Conservative Opportunity Society. King says the society is the core of the new face of American conservatism. He will take up the new post in January when the 109th Congress opens. King, who represents the sprawling 5th District that covers most of western Iowa, is set to begin his second term. The Conservative Opportunity Society, in existence for 22 years, meets each Wednesday morning and hosts guest speakers such as television personality Sean Hannity and Bush adviser Karl Rove.

I can't imagine how much fun it would be to attend.

Oh gracious, however on earth may we obtain tickets?

Need we sign another loyalty oath?
I shall wear my short white gloves and my hat that bears the hatband saying "Impeach Karl Rove and Whatsisname."

3. This guy is such an embarrassment to Iowa
Is there anyone out in that part of the state who can beat this clown. And I do mean clown. People like King are the poster boys for the perversion of religion and American politics. And West Iowa sends him back and he gets praise on the RW radio owned by clearchannel.
My fondest wish is that clowns like this find out their first born son is gay and then they must make the choice of blood or beliefs.
My blood pressure goes up @ 20 points just hearing this idiot's name.

4. Yep, anytime I read about King, I just get angry.
I can't think of anything he has done or said that represents me. I used to send him letters, emails, etc but it's just a waste of my time.

6. I *DESPISE* King...
He's a lunatic. It's no surprise he's already a 'leading conservative' -- in his mind, anything the Bush Admin does is perfect. He's Bush's boy.

If Joyce Schulte only had any sort of support from the state or national Democratic Party and could give her advertising support...
