Alan Simpson hopes Norquist drowns in a bathtub



Near the end of an interview with MSNBC host Chris Matthews, Simpson said that House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) had trouble negotiating a budget deal because members of his own party refused to compromise.

“He’s got 70 guys who didn’t go to Congress to limit government, they came there to stop it,” he said. “So how do you deal with guys who came to stop government or Grover wandering the earth in his white robe saying he wants to drown government in the bathtub. I hope he slips in there with it.”
