Republicans Have Their Priorities Straight

[Guest]

Job creation, national defense, getting deficit spending under control?

Liberals take heart. The Republicans really look ridiculous on this one. Congressman Rich Workman is spearheading an effort to repeal a ban on dwarf tossing. Yes, you read it right.

This one speaks for itself.:1rotfl:Until all the arguments begin over which team is left out of the BCS bowl games--which will certainly result in hearings in both the House and Senate--what better things does Congress have to do?

Puffington Post? You call that serious journalism?

Anyways this is from the link:

In 2001, a 3-foot-2 radio host known as "Dave the Dwarf" filed a federal lawsuit seeking to overturn Florida's ban on the "activity," saying he wanted the same opportunity for employment as everyone else. Dave likened dwarf tossing to basketball, in which height is an asset in the profession.

The Huffington Post recognizes the short attention span of many of today's voters, mostly the young.

Gentlemen,

Some of you can attack the overall bias of the Huffington Post and you may be right, but it doesn't alter the truth that that particular Republican dwells on nonsense.

In critical times like these it is thumbing ones nose at the public trust for a Congressman to dwell on something so unimportant.

You mean like a "Jobs Bill" that we were told "To Pass This Bill RIGHT NOW!" even before it was written, and then Harry Reid chose to delay it, and then make changes to it, so he could be sure that it wouldn't pass.

Yep, that sure is something important.

That's what it all comes down to for sure, dwarf tossing. You've found us out. All the ballyhoo was leading to this watershed moment. A brilliant piece of deduction. Bravo sir!!

A most wonderful and politically insightful forum thread as I've ever seen.
