Keep on sticking it to 'em Mr. Grayson.


This is what we need for you to do when you leave office in January.

12. In this "liberally biased media"? I mean, come on ... even the "poster boy"
of the "liberal media" gives Joe Scarborough, hardly a "lefty", three hours a day, and all the "lefties" 1 hour shows.

4. And this is who the Democratic Party did not back
The number one Republican target and the Democratic Party left him hanging, high and dry.

6. Does not that say something in itself?
About where the spirit of the Democratic party is? Hah! The audacity of hope - for sure.

16. The Democratic Party didn't want him to win...
He spoke the truth, didn't back down and held their feet to the fire. And he moved the conversation to the left, not to the center (or center right), which is something very few of the Democrats who have been bought and paid for by many of the very same corporations that own the republicans want. They may not say it out loud, but I doubt many of the Democrats who kept their offices are crying for him. But the American people should be.

5. how did you lose???
oh yeah, citizens united.... corporations can donate all they want, and the Democratic Party did not invest in you even though you were targeted by the tea party..... you are too good to us working people for the beltway insiders who just want the status quo. you would make a fine president

7. Going to miss this courageous young man in Washington!
He did more in his short time in Washington than a HUNDRED Congressman do in a career.

I tip my hat to you, Mr. Grayson!! You make America proud!!

Edited on Thu Nov-18-10 07:05 PM by nashville_brook

10. Read the idiot posters on Youtube. they bring up the same old ridiculous...
...crap about "The non-rich just want a handout" and "these rich people don't sit on their asses all day" and "The rich create all the jobs"...ect..

11. I just took a peek at their comments
Can't you just imagine who is writing these comments? Sitting in their 20 year old mobile (mo-bile) home, drinking a beer at 7 a.m., waiting for the wife to get home from her job as a topless dancer at the strip club near the airport. The TV is on Fox, and a week of dishes in the sink and on the table.

13. Keep Going, Alan!
I love Alan Grayson...I live in Florida, and while not in his district, I love his feistiness. I wish we (Dems) had more people like him, telling the righties what to do with some of their ideas and plans. If there were more people like him willing to stand up for what they believe in we'd be in much better shape going into 2011. The righties targeted him with big money in the last few months and sadly he won't be serving much longer. Let's hope he makes a comeback in the next cycle. We need more like him. Instead we get another lunatic righty who could care less about anyone but the rich and big business. That's how we ended up with that crook Rick Scott now. So many people here have drunk the Kool-Aid big time it sickens me.

14. I like Grayson. It's too bad the people in his district are so very stupid.
I'm tired of stupid people having a say in how my country is governed. Oh well...

17. Forget Congress. Grayson for PRESIDENT. He is THAT Good!
Voters listen to somebody who uses entertainment to make a point, especially when it's in their favor.

Grayson has the talent to run for president. People like Alan Grayson come along only once in a lifetime.

18. He's certainly not going out with a whimper, huh?
Is Obama still looking for a Chief of Staff? I've got a suggestion.
