So you agree that there was only one comment instead of the multiple comments you implied in your original comment. Thanks, admission checked and noted.
BTW I agreed with her that Republicans seem to often be motivated by fear, which is really a little off topic, not that they had a corner on the idiot market.
Well, I can see how that might be. After all, Think Progress does have a habit of posting unflattering stuff about Democrats....right?
Oh, you're right, that proves they're not left leaning at all.
The post I responded to said nothing about "left leaning"
You're seeing things that aren't there. Sleep deprivation can do that to a person
Yep, we're all afraid of people who are different than us (i.e. racist). You're right though, you just showed that we do not corner the idiocy market (speaking to your silly assumptions, not you).
Do let me know when you actually do find a liberal to criticize or someone on the right you don't assume is racist, because I guess I've never seen it.
And, goddamn, that's a huge frikkin' anteater you're carrying. I've never seen one with tusks before.
For the record X. The source has nothing to do with it. Either the guy did it or he didn't. He did in fact do it. That makes him look like a clueless buffoon regardless of who's bringing us the story. Now go to bed. I'm finished talking with you tonight.
Its horse****. A progressive website posted a gotcha video of a freshman congressman that made a mistake. Smug? Dood has been a congressman for 30 days. I think he looked scared to death and was commenting because he is on a committee and is supposed to say SOMETHING. At the very least he gets props for being honest about making a mistake.Vm, I believe you're missing her point that the smug face of this politician is a typical and representative expression of the disdain and flippancy, that ALL our political leaders really have for the common populaces problems with their leadership.
It's infuriating to see someone from either party act like nothing really matters very much, since they're so elevated and special.
That's my Chow-Chow, and while her muzzle is long for a Chow-Chow it's not all that big.

Nah...the 'We're screwed' commentary over something as small as that...well...it is what it is.
If maxine waters can get elected, anyone can.
The word moron comes to my mind. She is a freaking embarrassment.I saw her on 'The Colbert Report' not too long ago and she came off as bit of a Ding Dong. :lol:

How so? I don't even know the party the guy is in and didn't mention his party in the OP?
- pretty hard to miss, since it's near the top of the story.Clawson, a Republican from Florida, is not well known, having just been sworn in as a member of Congress on June 25. (He replaced Trey Redel who was busted for cocaine possession.)
During a congressional hearing Thursday, Foreign Policy reports, a member of Congress mistakeningly assumed that two senior U.S. government officials were actually representing India.
Since these are the same characters who so often declaim from the pulpits of their office, would it be unreasonable to expect that they might comport themselves with similar rectitude?Now that we have established that this may, or may not, be subject to partisanship, how about discussing the actual event?
Do any of you find this excusable, given that the Rep is still a newbie? I am assuming that its not so easy to get your footing, having your staff advise you as to proper protocol, informing you, passing on all the necessary information to make comments above reproach.
On the other hand, should we expect much more from well established officials?
That's why you agreed with this you ****ing liar.
Good grief, I don't even care if you are a shill, just stop acting all innocent. You had me fooled for a bit. Be a hack but be an honest one at least.

What a tard. Seriously, how tired are you of seeing idiots like this in positions of power. How do people like this get elected?! This is not about whether or not you agree with their positions on various issues or whether or not you deem them ridiculous, this is about being so clueless (not to mention smug and arrogant. That smirk made me want to punch this guy in the head) that you say something this patently stupid.
Why is he a "tard," exactly? Anyone could've made that mistake.
I mean... Really, what else are you supposed to think when you see two very Indian people, with two very Indian names, sitting side by side at a function like that?
There was no reason whatsoever to assume that they weren't Indians given the information he had available.
The worst he's guilty of here is not doing his homework before going in, and having a plea for "P.C." brownie points blow up in his face.
