Alan Grayson speaks truth to power

Rate: 5 Flag
Once again, I blogwhore for OS's Behind Blue Eyes, who brings great background info on Rep Alan Grayson (D-FL) in the post "Who is Alan Grayson."  My husband and I are writing checks to Grayson right now!  I am SO heartened that he spoke up.  Need more like him to speak up!
 
As BBE said, "civility is overrated."  It's time for the Dems to USE their majority (GREAT protest sign seen recently in DC: "DEMOCRATS: USE IT OR LOSE IT") before it's too late.  Grayson is talking truth to power and is willing to take the heat for it.  Good on him!
 
BBE has included a couple great videos as well.  Thanks again, BBE!

Support Alan Grayson and anyone else with the guts to say it like it IS! All this focusing on 'public options' instead of true health care reform - will put more and more money in the insurance cabal's vaults. Universal health care is the GOAL. Let's DO IT.
Grayson is a Cro-Magnon. He gave no evidence whatsoever to support his outrageous contention that Republicans want the elderly to die "soon," and he was forced by public opinion to express regret about his equally stupid reference to the Holocaust. And like a chastised child, he swore never to do it again.

If this is your champion, great. He'll be dust by the next election cycle at which time more tempered voices can start undoing the damage that Obama and his groupies have done to our beloved America.

Grayson rocks. And regarding Gordon Gasbag and all the other Right Wing zombies, it is hilarious to hear them squeal when someone has the temerity to turn the tables on them.
I also contributed to Alan Grayson after he said what people were thinking, but were afraid to say.

My husband and I have been following Grayson on the internet....where there is a lot more news than on the TV. He's a great guy! I wish all of our congressmen had a backbone like he does.
The problem with Grayson's backbone is that it extends into his cranial cavity where his brain is supposed to be.
