He’s brought dishonor to the House of Representatives and they need to censure him. I think that should include every bloody Rethug in the House.
Good luck with that.
Has Ryan already used the words “unfortunate” or “inappropriate” to describe King’s behavior?
“Rep. King has brought dishonor onto the House of Representatives,” Greenblatt wrote in the letter.
“Well, so have I,” Ryan replied, quizzically.
The only problem: Those without a spine cannot take such actions.
the chutzpah is strong in this one …
The Washington Post reported Thursday that Rep. Steve King of Iowa met with members of the right-wing Freedom Party in Austria after participating in a trip to Poland sponsored by a Holocaust education group.
King, a Republican, held the meeting following an August trip that included visits to the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp and meetings with Holocaust survivors.
Exactly, he’s done everything he can. I mean it’s like they want him to act appropriately for someone in his position of power. C’mon guys, he’s already really put himself out there.
Ryan sighs, sags his shoulders, puts on a face of concern, says some wishy washy words suggesting he agrees with the concerns raised, and then… does nothing.
But inside I bet it looks something like this: he is counting the minutes til he blows the side show and can start really pulling in the big bucks, serving on various corporate boards, becoming a partner of some big name lobbying firm, and collecting ruble kick backs in an off shore account - for the rest of his life,
King is the congressman for a huge piece of Iowa - the 4th congressional district is not some postage stamp sized district.
the most recent polls show it to be very close - 1% difference -
It is possible that -
not only are the voters in Iowa’s 4th district recognizing that King is a rancid racist
But that in J.D. Scholten - they have a far far BETTER choice - a genuine decent & intelligent human being
Ahh, don’t make little Eddie Muenster do something - he’s trying to keep his record of doing nothing intact.
The Iowa congressman has served in Congress since 2003, and currently serves as chairman of the House subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Justice.
Kind of like putting Satan in charge of exorcisms.
I always liked “not productive” and “does not advance the President’s agenda”.
