Judge…Grimm sold his ‘moral compass’ to get elected.

…took the words right outta …his mouth.

He got off way to easy. And, he had no moral compass, that was the problem.

Wish this thugs sentence had been much longer. He’s a real symbol of the GOP.

The burn comes from this puke claiming moral superiority over all others.

So he gets more prison time than convicted felon Dinesh D’souza yet still doesn’t grasp that he’s fallen more than convicted felon Dinesh D’souza

There are a lot other things a Marine is taught. I’m guessing he didn’t bother to learn those lessons. Maybe he took sick call that day.

"All my life I have scraped and I have clawed and I have killed myself to better myself. A Marine is taught not to fail.”

Well, the Marines must be very embarrassed: you failed miserably at that, too.

And frankly 8 months is a rather light sentence considering the variety of misdeeds.

Except that the criminal violation part was done by the Marine Corps, apparently.

If I am that reporter, I will pay him a visit in jail and ask for an interview.

How is it that a sitting congressman can plead guilty to tax fraud and get a mere 8 months? He’ll be out in four if he behaves himself, right? My god but there is no justice in these United States.

“A Marine is taught not to fail.”

The four Marines who were killed yesterday should put men like Grimm to shame…

if he had any.

He’s a disgrace to the Corps, the Congress (get in line) and this country.

Because what we on the left really stand for is punishment by prison rape?

And here I’d thought that rape and torture were GOP traditional values. Welp. One learns something every day about one’s ostensible political allies.

This right wing bozo is an ex cop to. Cops don’t do well in prison! This should be a very interesting incarceration. One things for sure if he tries to pull his Billy bad a** routine in prison it’s probably going to wind up rather bad for him.

Ahhh, Karen Walker. Now, I would love having a friend like Karen. I love a sarcastic sense of humor.

Interesting that the reporter’s uncle is Anthony Scotto of the Gambino crime family.
