Hey Alaska's real-life Congressman Don Young, what can you tell kids these days about suicide? It’s their fault because they are bad friends, and also the government handouts are doing it too? Yeah, pretty much. An unapologetic U.S. Rep. Don Young on Wednesday wasn't backing down from statements he made Tuesday at Wasilla High School that suicide shows a lack of support from friends and family. […] Asked about the “lack of support” comment, Young expanded on it and added that suicide in Alaska didn’t exist before “government largesse” gave residents an entitlement mentality
Also from the ADN: <blockquote>&ldquo;When people had to work and had to provide and had to keep warm by putting participation in cutting wood and catching the fish and killing the animals, we didn&rsquo;t have the suicide problem,&rdquo; [Young] says on the recording.</blockquote> Then he broke out into <a href="http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch\?v=sZa26_esLBE" target="_blank">the Lumberjack song.</a>
Don Young is no less interesting a name than Steve King, so it&#039;s not that. It&#039;s probably because he&#039;s one of those exotic furrn non-48ers like that other alien state where nobody of any consequence ever came from, Hulahoop or whatever.
Sadly this won&#039;t make a damn bit of difference. He will get reelected and it won&#039;t even be close. He could rob a bank in broad daylight while passing out ebola laced popsicles and people will just keep voting for him. He doesn&#039;t even campaign most years.
Let&#039;s see.... Wasilla......suicide......
Damnit, the low-hanging fruit done bonked me on the nose again!
Unpossible! Requires it be possible to lower his reputation.
That looks to be a peculiar handshake, is he a Mason?
Compassionate conservatism, folks!
Well, I blame Ronald Reagan for just about everything.
I think it&#039;s just a new twist on the old pull my finger gag.
So busy! How does he find the time to do so much stupid?

It all goes back to Fluoride. Ask Dr. Zoom, he knows.

And you would be correct!

This is an example of representative government: Donnie represents ignorant fuckwads.
