"I missed lunch for this?" Who was that pinheaded
Teabagger Congressman that said that when asked about the President's speech? I just caught that near the end of a story about the R response when I turned on the news this morning. Who was that cynical, snide jerk? AND I hope this is used liberally in ads against him. A fine example of the callousness of the teabagger mentality toward those who haven't got theirs.

1. Did he have an evil-looking widow's peak, like Eddie Munster?
If so, it was that smarta$$ Cong. Ryan from Wisconsin, I think..........

2. No, it wasn't Ryan, although his facial expression clearly
could have been interpreted as such. It was someone I don't recall seeing before but there was no name up on the screen.

3. Apparently, it was that cretin Hensarling from TX. See attached article.

Hensarling: Obama's "new standard for class warfare"

Dallas Rep. Jeb Hensarling, kicking off a House GOP leadership rebuttal event, says President Barack Obama's debt-reduction speech this afternoon set "a new standard for class warfare."

He was honored that the White House invited him to attend the speech at George Washington University, he said. But once he heard what Obama had to say, his main thought was: "And I missed lunch for this?"

Budget Chairman Paul Ryan also said he viewed the invite to the speech as an "olive branch." Instead, he said, he heard "partisan broadsides" from the "campaigner-in-chief."

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor scoffed that the only concrete proposal Obama offered was higher taxes

5. My sympathy to your partner.
Lordy, the Rs know how to pick ignorant and callous people. I have a friend in Georgia who used to work for Jack Kingston's father-in-law who was the owner of an insurance agency some reputation there. Jack's father-in-law gave Jack a job with the company and Jack did so much damage that the guy fixed it so he would never get his hands on his business when he left. Jack is as dumb and callous as they come too. They clone these ignoramuses somewhere.
