Did you hear him say the supreme court can be wrong at times? Like bush being selected by them in 2000 and citizens united. Two of the reasons why this country is so f$&ked up.

And his saying people voted for a republican house while democrats got a million more votes and the restricting.

We all have to get everyone we know to vote them out in 2014. Take a pledge to not vote republican.

And he's a first class douche bag for sure.

On Sept 12 he sent out a mailer that explicitly stated:

"This Administration illegally uses the Internal Revenue Service to attack political adversaries."

On Sept 16 he sent out a mailer with this tidbit:

"Distrust and disdain for the White House is reaching such heights that many constituents ask me to call for President Obama’s impeachment. America’s Constitution controls that issue. It says that a president may only be impeached for “high crimes or misdemeanors”. Quite frankly, at this point, I am unaware of compelling evidence that the President violated any specific criminal statute."

In this particular case, Mo is short for Moron.

Don't get me started on my Senators

in objection to Obamacare, something about it being unfair to the middle class because it pays for poor people's insurance by taking money away from people who work.

Apparently, in his world the poor never work . . .
