I take it Congressman Hunter would also object to the porcine looking Chief Wiggam from the Simpsons.

How about a picture of Rep. Hunter as the pig, using money from his campaign fund to pay $62K worth of personal expenses?

As the media reported during the campaign and even now trying to explain why Trump won:

Only Rural White Lives/Opinions Matter.

Duncan Hunter JR. is a total and complete ass. Period. Yes, you dick, you can take it down. However, SOMETIMES just ignoring stuff doesnā€™t make everyone see you as the idiot you are.

Suspect that Rep. Hunter will cobble together some lame justification like this ā€œit makes me madā€ when he gets full of himself and decides to make a grandstanding move by taking down the Presidential portrait of Obama.

It was also rather telling that he had to bring up the fact that he was a Marine as a reason for doing what he did.

Shades of what he and his fellow Republicans would like to do as far as merging the military and government, perhaps?

Is Duncan Hunter demanding all Redskins football helmets be taken down? I doubt it.

Republican fascism

Just being self-righteous. He shouldā€™ve said that he served to protect all our freedoms, including freedom of speech. It seems to me that he is, as a agent of the government, violating that protection.

ā€œI was angry,ā€ Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-CA) told FoxNews.com on Friday. ā€œIā€™ve seen the press [reporting] on this for about a week or so. ā€¦ Iā€™m in the Marine Corps. If you want it done, just call us.ā€

What the fuck does this even mean?

Maybe we can commission the student to do a mural of congressmen. THAT would be interesting.
