You know what gave me GREAT SATISFACTION TODAY?
I called that mental midget Congressional 6th District Republican in Georgia, Tom Price'.

You know of his stellar performance recently when the the tea-bagger kept objecting and wouldn't let a Democratic Rep advise and extend her remarks. He was (weakly) told he was out of order as he kept doing this over and over again with other white male Republicans (finally, one female tea-bagger Republican of the House chimed in). This is what it's come to. So....

You guessed it- I called up Price's DC office, and after the male staffer answered for the next 30 seconds I responded, "I OBJECT" every time he attempted to talk. (I know, this is extremely obnoxious)

I then asked, "How do you like it when someone who is supposed to go to Washington to represent a congressional district responds with this nonsense?"

He attempted again to answer, but, it had already decided to continued my objection. After another 20 seconds, he had enough and hung up.

You know, I don't really care how this sounds, I think it was a rather effective way of responding to these people. They don't know who it's coming from and I think it made a point.

At least that's what I felt it did. See for your own self, if you're so inclined:

4. I think it's perfectly acceptable, and often very effective, to let your inner gremlin out once in
a while.

Sometimes I get tired of "nice." As long as you gong hurt anybody, why the helll not?

9. From what I see, we're in for more of this insanity in 2010
These freaks are probably ready to rally their angry tea bag base to shout over more and more in the Congress and in the streets.

I don't live in GA, but my son and family do. Shutter...
