"When I go take a personal vacation I don’t sit on the beach, I go do active things. And so, I’m also not going to live in a cave. So when I post an Instagram photo with me and my friends, you know --as Taylor Swift said, ‘haters are gonna hate.’”

Channeling his inner Palin or brain damage from excessive wall color stimulus?

Either he’s into bordellos of he’s in the closet. He will be a crusty old white guy soon.

He’s not a crusty White Guy.

He’s a fabulous closet queen.

Stick by your guns, Rep. Schock. I’m no fan of anyone in the GOP, but Congress would be a much less stodgy place with a bit more color and flair.

That’ll cost him the vacation beach-goer vote and the Downton Abbey/PBS viewer vote. Considering how far southwest his district is of Chicago, that probably won’t mean more than 3-4 votes total.

Oof. Way to insult the Republican base, which is mostly old, crusty white guys.

Taylor Swift??? Geez, maybe he’s not a crusty old white guy, but he’s no intellectual either. My Brit relatives have a word for this twit [well there’s that too]: Wanker!

the place looks like Dr Kevorkian’s waiting room. If you were unsure of killing yourself 30 minutes earlier, the décor will change your mind.

I’d like to know what grown man quotes an (overrated) pop singer, but then again, there was that video of the cop, so…

I can hear him already: “What?! A $3500 suit on a wire hangar?!!! Wait until I get hold of that fucking Lindsey! I’ll slap the gay off of him!!!”
And also, the designer must not be very good. She forgot to hang the Jeff Stryker posters. Speaking as a proudly out gay man who is not a closeted pussy like Aaron, I have a feeling that Rep. Schock doesn’t get off on portraits of Maggie Smith.

I’d love to know who footed the bill here.

For the record, Schock also said he intended to pay for the decorations as soon as he gets an invoice from the interior designer.

…but only because you little people found out about it.

His press secretary posted racist stuff on his personal Facebook page:

Shock and his press secretary are Grade A scum.

And mysteriously, that bill will never arrive.

WHATEVER the reason for his choice in color and décor, TO BE SURE, the bottom line is that IT’S UGLY. This particular shade of red, is a very hard color to live with on a daily basis for a long period of time. And the FACT IS s that he’s STUCK WITH IT. To change it would be very hard, he’d be called wasteful. Dude maybe if you’d been a little bit OLDER you would’ve known better. And by his statement about OLD CRUSTY WHITE GUYS…he managed to INSULT a very large number of his fellow Representatives and constituents.
