I am disgusted with the name calling in today's political world.
In particular, I think the bullying and teasing currently being directed against Congressman Steve King is disgraceful.
Things got out of hand recently when an invitation to debate was posted on the Interweb. Congressman King replied succinctly and directly to the request.
(I am told that "meh" is young people code for "maybe eventually, homey".)
In the last day, I have heard Steve King called "The Cowardly Lyin'", "Chicken ala King", and "The Pale, Pasty Face of Evil." I have even heard Congressman King referred to as a "White Somnambulist."
I ask the people of Northwest Iowa to have some sympathy for the man. Imagine you were thrust into a job for which you are in no way qualified. Imagine the frustration when, year after year, you fail to get your legislative ideas passed into law.
Imagine waking up every day, knowing that you are only one Gohmert away from being rated as the dumbest member of the House of Representatives.
Have a heart.
