Alan Grayson is in the news again. This hate filled clown was defeated and sent packing once before, but managed to get elected again.

Grayson likened the Tea Party to the Ku Klux Klan. His views are not just his, however. There are many DemoCrats who share them, and equate Republicans (wrongfully) with the KKK. Similar acusations have often been made on this very forum.
"Grayson condemns himself and his own Party through his ignorant, inflammatory comparison of the Tea Party to the Ku Klux Klan by brining once again to memory that it is the Democrats who worked tirelessly to keep African-Americans in chains and advocated brutal violence against any who challenged Democrat thuggery. (one might say that tradition continues)

"Thank you for bringing this again into the cold light of history, Rep. Grayson. Rarely in the annals of political numbskullery (and that's saying a lot) has one man managed to so completely disgrace himself with facts and resurrect the one thing the Democrats yearn to hide."

Before you finished typing all that up, Grayson said five more inflammatory things. Just Alan Grayson being Alan Grayson.

I like Alan Grayson, as do a majority of voters in his district.

You're right, Dems know exactly how the Klan works since it was THEIR group for many years.

Calling the Demoratic party "Democrat party" was a tatic used by (R) Mc Carthy as a pejoritve slight at the Democratic party and demoracts. Like McCarthy the slight is making a come back .

Quote:
"to deny the enemy the positive connotations of its chosen appellation." In the early 1990s, apparently due largely to the urging of then-House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-GA) and Republican pollster Frank Luntz, the use of the word "Democrat" as an adjective became near-universal among Republicans

By your logic, all white folk know exactly how pedophillia works as they were the vast majority of pedophiles.

No, Grayson doesn't speak for the Democrats, unlike the Republicans we don't do whatever the far left tells us to do. Though I do like Grayson more than West because we can basically ignore Grayson and let him go off on his rants while the Republicans couldn't help themselves and felt they needed to follow the RWNJs into the fire.
