Jim Trafficant was a Democrat
He was your basic, common, honest crook. Crazy as a shithouse rat, but still just a basic, common, honest crook who got what he deserved, a stay at the Graybar Hotel.

He was probably one of the worst Democrats I can think of.

I would rather him than some of the repubicans who are running for office now.

1. But the dead animal on top of his head may have been a Republican
Which may explain all the conflict that went on inside Jimmy's head.

2. Worst rug I've ever seen.
Doesn't the man own a mirror?

6. I'd bet that Carl Paladino is a nastier person than Trafficant ever was. I'll bet that Meg Whitman..
... is a more amoral, self absorbed person than Trafficant ever was.

7. And his time in the pokey...
...has allowed him to ruminate of the real power of the Jews and how they control so much of just about everything.

8. He was loved back home in the 70's when he was Sheriff
and refused to evict laid off steelworkers from their homes.

12. That's very true
Problem is, many corrupt jackasses think lining their own pockets is excusable because deep down they are 'for the people.' It's a very common story.

13. I'd vote for him over any Republican running nationally this year.
Edited on Sat Oct-02-10 12:26 AM by Unvanguard
:shrug:

Edit: Well, under the condition that he would vote for Nancy Pelosi and not John Boehner.

14. Joe Lieberman was a Democrat...
He was your basic, simple, sensible democrat, who tortured Lowell Weicker. He advocated the US into going into war causing the casualties in the tens of thousands and sided with BUSH and the rest of the felons, AND HE HAS YET TO GET WHAT HE DESERVES. HE EVEN GOT FUCKING REELECTED.

BTW, Trafficant is a teabagger to the fullest extent and would make Michelle Bachmann proud.
