This is going to be a short diary, but worth the bit of time to have a great smile put on our faces during these difficult times.

Congressman Alan Grayson recently went to town on not just Rudy Giulinai for his 'recent revisionist terrorism history on 9/11 during the Bush Administration,' but also included several striking 'reminders' to the Republican party on their recent attempts to rewrite history and move the current countries economic situation onto President Obama's shoulders and the Democratic Party.

God I love Grayson.....he just really knows how to give a punch that stings long after it's been thrown.... Video below the fold...

In other news, just to keep Kossacks up to date on the great work Congressman Grayson is doing:

Anticipating a Supreme Court decision that could free corporations to spend unlimited amounts of money on political campaigns, Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.) introduced five bills on Wednesday to choke off the expected flood of corporate cash. "We are facing a potential threat to our democracy," Grayson said in an interview with HuffPost. "Unlimited corporate spending on campaigns means the government is up for sale and that the law itself will be bought and sold. It would be political bribery on the largest scale imaginable."

Grayson introduced a handful of bills on Wednesday -- the Business Should Mind Its Own Business Act, the Corporate Propaganda Sunshine Act, the End Political Kickbacks Act, and two other measures. The Business Should Mind Its Own Business Act would impose a 500 percent excise tax on corporate contributions to political committees and on corporate expenditures on political advocacy campaigns. The Corporate Propaganda Sunshine Act would require public companies to report what they spend to influence public opinion on any matter other than the promotion of their goods and services. The End Political Kickbacks Act would restrict political contributions by government contractors.

The other measures would apply antitrust regulations to political committees and bar corporations from securities exchanges unless the corporation is certified in compliance with election law. "This case is basically about an effort to get around that. Citizens United took corporate money and tried to influence an election," said Lisa Gilbert of the U.S. Public Interest Research Group. "These are all pieces of good policy. I hope they draw attention to the potential frightening implications of Citizens United."
