Is it something in the water up there?

Biggest crook in a fraternity of crooks.

Drunk or high.

“What do you get with two bulls?” Why, you get Rep. Don Young, R-Alaska, soon to be retired FSM willing.

And, holy crap, the usual Republican “to the extent that anyone was offended, I’m sorry” non-apology.

Is this the same Don Young that told his political opponent the last person who touched him “wound up dead?” Or who scared the shit out of a congressional aide who tried to stop him from entering a conference?
I’m sensing a pattern.

The aggressiveness and lack of impulse control sound like early-mid stage Alzheimer’s to me. That, and he’s a major asshole.

Wait a minute–did somebody expect LEADERSHIP from a Republican? If they had any leadership ability, they certainly would not be joining the Republican party. Asking for a more sensitive approach from Republicans is like the frog asking the scorpion not to sting him as they cross the river. It just isn’t in the scorpions nature to refrain from stinging the one who is helping him. They just cannot help themselves, which is why you must never ever vote for one.

Sounds like he’s OK with two women getting married. He’s just got a phobia about penii.

(Q) What’s the difference between Don Young and a bucket of sh*t?

(A) The bucket.

His vulgar and bizarre hangups about sex are understandable. As a child he was almost castrated when his sister was accidentally hit in the mouth.

considering he’s a major-player Republican in that state, I’m going with asshole.

He’s 81 years old. That sounds like a pretty reasonable hypothesis.

This guy will be re-elected in a landslide because some voters are just as dumb as a sack of hammers. What a sad spectacle. No wonder our government is dysfunctional. We keep re-electing morons.

his disdain for gay marriage - equating it to bestiality - is par for the course for your average Republican official. It’s his ignorance and dismissive views on depression and suicide that’s disgusting. He may have thought he was talking “tough love” to the community and friends of that suicide victim, but Young was f-cking tone-deaf, callous, and soulless. The entire GOP has this problem with empathy and sympathy, and Young’s statements is just one more proof that they can’t fake it.

Just look at the background of slimy bottomfeeder Young: Campaign contribution bribes, Jack Abramoff scandal, VECO bribes, Troha scandal, Coconut Grove scandal, etc. And his own aides blew the whistle on him. He should be in prison.

The Palins, Ted Stevens, Joe Miller, Don Young, Tom Anderson, Pete Kott, and on and on. What a corrupt bastards’ club Alaska manages consistently to put on the political stage.

My gawwd’…the baby Jeebus’ couldn’t have been born in that state because you couldn’t find three wise men or a virgin.

People don’t like Congress but we keep sending the same idiots to DC. I’ve known this guy since the 70’s and I wouldn’t hire Don Young to clean toilets. Hey Chuck Todd! You think this guy is ‘qualified’ for anything beyond picking up trash along a highway?

Once and asshole, always and asshole.
He just can’t help it because Don Young (R-Morons) is just too dumb to know any better.

This guy’s a real piece of shit.

May he commit suicide by bull sex. Amen.

No, just a Republican.

Surprised he didn’t start his remark with, “I’m not a scientist, but…”
