    Wow, this one really brought out the Beck crazies. Is it McCarthy or King that brought them out? Oh well, approved comments only for this thread. I get enough crazy on the streets of NYC.

    It's kind of cute that a congressman from Iowa thinks he matters.

    He's gay. Just like the Hammer.

    When you show that much hate towards gays I believe deep inside that person would suck a dick in a second or already has and hate's the fact he enjoyed it or fantasizes about it.

    No Homo.

    Let's play a game. We all know that Republican officials always turn out to be liars, adulterers, closet cases, theives, and other assorted evil. What will this cretin's eventual scandal be? Sleeping with underage girls? boys? animals? Dressing like a nazi and being spanked? I think the level of hater matches the level of scandal so I can't wait to hear what bizarre fuckery this dude has been up to.

    You may recall that Iowa-based Representative King, along with Ron Paul, voted against a plaque honoring the slaves who were forced to build the Capitol building.

    I know it's early but no you may not recall that because the post you link to expressly states that Ron Paul did not vote against the plaque.

    @WackoJacko: And as long as I'm proofing even though I'm not on the clock, it's "feat OF irrational thinking."

    Also, I vote that the Real Steve King likes to dress up like Karl Marx and be sexed over by underage dancing Muslim boys dressed like slaves.

    Isn't he also the same Steve King who plans to run for governor of Iowa, and repeal gay marriage there? Watch out, Iowans.

    For what it's worth, he explained his vote here:

    It makes about as much sense as you'd imagine it would.

    @fetys: Boy, on and on in that explanation about the evils of "quid pro quo politics" and then at the very end, we get to the crux of the issue for him:


    "of the 645,000 Africans that were brought here to be put forcibly into slavery in the United States, there were over 600,000 people that gave their lives in the Civil War to put an end to slavery and I don't see the monument to that in the Congressional Visitors Center and I think it's important that we have a balanced depiction of history."


    He wants the white people who died in the Civil War to be honoured, just like the slaves!!

    Ron Paul is mellowing. Next you'll tell us he's supporting the establishment of a "Hey, Isn't It Just Grand that the Federal Reserve Prints All that Free Money?" exhibit in the Capitol Rotunda.
