Rep. Grayson Likens GOP to Al-Qaeda

Joe Schoffstall | May 21, 2010

Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.) compared the Republican party to Al-Qaeda during a recent interview set to be aired this weekend on Channel 9 in Florida. As you'll remember, this is the same Congressman who absurdly stated during the health care debate that the GOP's alternative was for people to 'die quickly.' During the interview Rep. Grayson uttered this ridiculous statement: "Why would you want to put people in charge of government who just don't want to do it. I mean, you wouldn't expect to see Al-Qaeda members as pilots." Here's the video:

One could argue that after Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) was applauded by the Conservative movement for screaming "You Lie!" at President Obama as he was giving a nationally televised speech on health care, Grayson thought he could capture the same emotion from the left that Wilson received from the right by giving a planned speech (as compared to Wilson's spontaneous shout) 'passionately' screaming how "Republicans want you to die quickly."

It appears that he has failed miserably.
