'Hush That Pretty Lyin' Mouth Of Yours,' Hero Congressman Tells Dumb Old Journalist Lady

Yet another brave GOP congressman who voted to stop paying all the nonessential "little people" -- Congress is, of course, "essential" -- went on the teevee to splain himself, and boy, did he ever! Blah blah blah, said he, it would send the wrong message to not grift up every last taxpayer dollar while fighting to keep any other American from ever enjoying the fruits of society. That's expected, of course, but Rep. Todd Rokita, of Indiana, must have been feeling like his other poo-brained colleagues were getting a little too much love and attention, and added an extra special dollop of whipped cream and Courvoisier onto the end:

“I think most Americans would say fight that fight separate from the federal budget. Don’t partially shut down the federal government, don’t make things worse by fighting the same fight over and over,” [anchor Carol] Costello argued.

Rokita responded, “No, you’re part of the problem,” prompting Costello to roll her eyes and scoff, “Ugh, come on. That’s so easy.”

“Carol, you’re beautiful but you need to be honest as well,” Rokita finally said[.]

Carol Costello immediately apologized for having an opinion while the menfolk were talking, and hushed that pretty lyin' mouth. She didn't need to keep it open anyway, as all her teeth are in her vagina, where they belong.
