Yo Smeg-head.

I'm calling it now...there's gonna be a movie made about this great man from Florida

More important factors surrounding our FUBAR are usually missed. Try filing charges against professionals, potiticians, lawyers, court officers, trustees & see where it gets you. The system is choking our ability to pursue wrongs against white collar crime. It’s a feeding trough for unethical lawyers & other "fiduciaries" appointed by courts to protect, many nothing more than predators. Professionals are not held accountable for damage created & not just to the victim.

Grayson is the man. The cheap righwing corporate asslicks ganged up and rat packed him because he was dangerous. He inspired people and showed people what a real representative should do and who they should represent. It's time to overhaul the Democratic Party...and make it a truly progressive political party instead of something that resembles "Republican Light".

[MaryJesusJoseph]

Florida is the craziest state in the country. This coming from someone who lives in California.

[exsinor]

Florida is controlled by a bunch of rich, retired people who believe "I got mine, to hell with you", Look at their new governor, a rich, retired CEO of a company found guilty of massive Medicare FRAUD. As long as you protect the rich, Any Criminal Can Win AS A Republican in Florida evidently.

[Hereticbooks]

Grayson is a hero. He's one of the few with a bit of political courage. We need more of that.

[RonWolf]

Senator Alan Grayson?

[morality101]

If the today's Democrats had been around before the Civil war, they would have passed some regulations to slightly improve conditions for the slaves and given the plantation owners some tax breaks and then patted themselves on the back for their mighty brave success at changing America for the better.

[Hereticbooks]

@morality101

The problem with that is, that at that time, the Democrats were the conservative party, while the Republicans were the liberal party.

[morality101]

@Hereticbooks

The first sentence of what you replied to is "If the today's Democrats had been around before the Civil war." The key words I wrote are "today's Democrats."

[Hereticbooks]

@Hereticbooks

ahhh right. You're taking a poke at all the concessions the dem's have made of late. Text is a difficult forum to get a point across in 500 characters or less.

[Slave2Reason]

Grayson is a hard core socialist... Plain & simple!

[diginando]

@Slave2Reason ...as opposed to coporate shill?

[Slave2Reason]

@diginando All politicians are corporate shills, both left and right...

[Hereticbooks]

@Slave2Reason

If you think Grayson is, then you just might be part of the problem. Grayson has political courage. It's a shame he's on his way out.

[Slave2Reason]

@Hereticbooks Political courage? He outright slandered his opponent in the election... If you can't recognize that you certainly are the problem!

[Scipio2021]

Grayson did more in his 2 years than 95% of the Republicans can do in 20 years, unless you include being whores for special interest lobby groups. In that case Republicans can beat anyone with 1 hand tied behind their back.

[FatherofMan25]

i love grayson seriously. he is way too smart unfortunately to be voted in by americans, especially floridians.

[ScampyKid]

Alan Grayson is my hero.  And I'm Canadian!

[YourBrainOnReligion]

Florida, I hope you know a lot of America is pretty pissed off at you fuckers :(

LRN2VOTE :(

[diginando]

@YourBrainOnReligion Florida is a worlwide laughingstock.

[rickbar123]

Holy Shit !!! How much Grey Poupon can the rich eat ???? They need to try dollar store mustard, like the FUCKING WORKING CLASS DOES. IT'S CLASS WAR PEOPLE, WAKE UP.

[dartaddict]

If only the Kucinichs and the Graysons had control of the Democratic Party, rather than the Obamas and the Reids.

[CentristRevolution]

Dear Florida, ya fucked up again.

[Homer177]

@CentristRevolution Yup, and the guy we have as our governor now is even worse.

[SpinachSalad01]

Very sorry to see him go and for 2011-2012, I hope his consituents realize what they lost in this strong advocate of their interests and the interests of the general public and not just the rich and affluent in America. Personally I hope only they suffer for it and not the rest of the country.

[izaccy]

Lesson nr. 1

Dont eff with the establishment

punishment throw you out.

Lesson nr. 2

Please the establishment.

Soon it will be a war between the rich and poor.

as the gap expands between them.

[Thinking4You]

Says a man who just lost his job. Although I will miss him, he's an American hero.

[snipzor]

@Thinking4You Well said, I was thinking the exact thing. The place he went wrong was the comparison between republicans and the taliban, that was a bad idea.
