My ‘Modest Suggestion’ as to what the Democrats in the Senate should do with Joey the Liarmann….

August 28, 2007

Since Senator Boxer can’t seem to understand what her ‘Ethics’ Committee should be about…Watch the video for the latest Republican episode in self-hatred.

I suggest we remove Crazy Joey the Liarman from his chairmanship of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee and appoint him the Republican Restroom attendant. From his little stool at the entrance to same he can hand out towels to clean up the mess and counsel Republican Senators on how not to get caught soliciting oral sex there.

Got anything you’d like to tell us Barbara?
