The Speech the Republicans Wouldn't Let You Hear
Ten days ago, the Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives shut down the federal government.

Two days ago, a pollster identified things that now are more popular than Congress. Here are some of them: Dog poop. Zombies. Witches. Hemorrhoids.

Yesterday, another pollster measured the GOP approval rating. Answer: 28%. No major political party has ever seen an approval rating this low.

I took to the House Floor to tell the Republicans exactly what you think of Congress. I pointed out that according to scientific polling, Americans think more of dog poop than Congress. And the Speaker of the House wouldn't let me finish.

You heard that right. When I carried your voice into Congress, the Republicans tried to shut me up. First they shut down the government. Now, they're telling America to shut up.

Despite their attempt to silence us, my speech was all over the media - from the Daily Show, to MSNBC's All In With Chris Hayes, to the Huffington Post, to Raw Story, to Gawker. Even right-wing propaganda organs like The Blaze and Weasel Zippers covered it. And now the polls are showing the Republicans might lose their majority in the U.S. House in next year's election.

Let's show them that when they shut down the government, we take back the House.

The GOP now knows that they're in trouble, and only their sewer money can save them. This means that every dollar we raise scares the GOP, and makes it more likely that they will fold on the government shutdown.

With every dollar, with every contribution that you make, I am going to work to take the House back for the Democrats. And I know I can count on you. Because I'm just saying what you're thinking. Which is that Congress shouldn't be less popular than dog poop.

Let's do this together.

Courage,

Alan Grayson

11. Thank you for speaking for me

I watched your speech and loved it and if I followed it correctly you were trying to use the house rules to bring up the Senate bill that reopens the government. Thanks for trying! Now if you could just take over Yoho's district because he is unfortunately my congress non-representative. I am so embarrassed. please help us get rid of him in 2014. I am more than willing to go door to door!

No money though!

Poor Alan Grayson. He is at the wrong site to get $$$$. I'm waiting for the pics of hands and healing white light.

That single post has ten links for donations.

What a greedy bastard, the multi-millionaire Democrat congressman.

It's kinda sad that the DUmmies have been DUped into believing Grayson is actually making those posts himself, and also reads the responses.

I find it rather sweet - it's a bit like watching a child at Christmas who honestly believes that the presents were brought by Santa Claus.

I always found it odd, how the primitives admire skinflints and hate generous people.

Here, you got multi-millionaire Alan Grayson begging for money so that he doesn't have to spend any of his own.

And compare their feelings about 0bozo, Joe Bidet, and the Bostonian Billionaire, whose income-tax returns show hardly any charitable giving, with their feelings about George Bush, Richard Cheney, and Mitt Romney, all of whom give more than just a mere 10% tithe.

And there's Bela Pelosi, who makes Ebenezer Scrooge look like Santa Claus.

Remember the used underwear donated by the husband of Hillary?

The list can go on and on.

And finally, even among the primitives who seem highly popular, there's the CalPig primitive bitterly clinging onto every cent she has.

I can't figure it out.

     You know that phrase "money won is twice as sweet as money earned?"

     Well, to a liberal, money taken is ten times as sweet as money given. Why ask a liberal to give when you can just as well take from a conservative?

It is an email his fundraising stooges send out. Then one of his stooges takes that email and posts it at moonbat sites like DU. So basically it is nothing more than junkmail being posted.

And yet, they think it's really him posting as a member.  Or pretend to think it is, so they can respond and get some DUstreet cred.

Great place for mole-cred also.
