GOP Sen. Sam Brownback speaks to progressives [!!]

Sam Brownback (R-KS) addresses progressive religious activists who met on Capitol Hill to lobby Congress to do more to end poverty.

Opening quote from Brownback's speech: "I don't know what there is to be mad about. Live in such a wonderful country, but there's a lot of things we're called to do in this great land. I don't think we ought to be mad, but I think we ought to all be very weary about when we go to meet our maker, what we do with what we've been given."

I am kind of sad that he has dropped out. I'm from Kansas and it was a blast making fun of this jackass during a "debate". I think him and Phelps may share the same bed on occasion.

Here's a fact for you. Why not drive the United States into crazy wars and then cut taxes? Nobody has ever been insane enough to do it except The Bush Party. Let's do it some more! Just throw a party in Afghanistan and Iraq and buy all the toys for it with NO MONEY IN YOUR BANK ACCOUNT! Great idea, huh? Cut taxes throw a party abnd watch our country dissolve! Republican Round Up!

Thank God Brownback is dropping out tomorrow, hopefully Duncan "Nazi" Hunter follows.

damn, Brownback Mountain is dropping out of the race! There goes a fine source of comedy. Now we'll have to get all our wingnuttetry from Tancredo and Keyes. I was really hoping for a Brownback/Santorum ticket this year.
