ALAN GRAYSON, YET ANOTHER SOURCE OF EMBARRASSMENT FOR THE STATE OF FLORIDA…


Well it would seem that we here in Florida have yet another source of embarrassment that can now be added to what is already a pretty impressive list that includes several illustrious individuals that we have chosen to represent us in Washington.  So to a list that already includes such notables as Corrine Brown, Debbie Wizzerman Schultz, Alcee Hastings, Bill Nelson and Frederica Wilson, we can add none other than Democrat congressman Alan Grayson to that list. 

Grayson has always been known as being not much more than your basic loudmouth turd-ball with a reputation for never being able to make all that much sense.  And he recently made that point all that more clear went on a profanity-laced tirade in an interview with a reporter who dared to point out the hypocrisy of Grayson’s idiotic comments by asking him why it was that he kept his cash in offshore tax havens.  Democrats are never supposed to have such questions of them, it’s a rule.

Grayson, as you may remember, was a staunch critic, as well as a very vocal one, of then-Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney for holding money in off-shore accounts, and once demanded the IRS investigate every single Fortune 500 company to uncover their “offshore tax havens.”  But in an interview with the Tampa Bay Times’ Adam Smith, it was Grayson who was confronted with evidence that his own corporations were incorporated in the Cayman Islands, a notorious tax haven.

Grayson was, needless to say, less than happy to be challenged on the point when contacted by Smith, calling it “some stupid, bullshit story… You want to write shit about it, and you can’t because not a single dollar of taxes has been avoided.”  He pretty much showed his ass saying, “Are you f*cking kidding?”  He continued saying, “I set up a fund that might solicit foreign investors… I have no present intention of soliciting foreign investors. Your perception issue is bullshit.” 

You’ll notice that whenever such claims are made about Democrats, they’re somehow always said to be bullshit.  Democrats must never be made to play by their own rules. Grayson then actually went on to ask, “This is a whole ‘nother level of bullsh*t… Are are you some kind of shitting robot? You go around shitting on people?”  A Lexis Nexis search confirms that Grayson is the first sitting Congressman ever to demand to know whether or not a reporter at a major newspaper is a “shitting robot.”

But you know, whether we’re talking about Democrats or Republicans, is this really the type of behavior the American people should expect from their elected public officials?  Wasn’t it Barry, the leader of Grayson’s own party, who not that long ago was complaining about a lack civility?  Or was that nothing more than typical Barry rhetoric aimed only at his opponents and not at members of his own party?  And that Grayson was able to finagle his way back to Congress says much about modern day Democrats.
