There are a lot of rich white men who are representing you in our nation's most deliberative body, and sometimes they set themselves apart by being INSANELY CRAZY. But sometimes they are just run-of-the-mill crazy, in which case it is hard to tell them apart. This is why you don't yet know very much about Republican Senator Bob Corker probably -- it is because so far he has been able to blend in, chameleonlike, with all of these other moderately crazy rich white male Republican Senators and stay just below the radar. JUST CRAZY ENOUGH to be a Republican; NOT CRAZY ENOUGH to be a particularly noteworthy Republican. But today may be the day that the tide turns for Bob Corker, because it is the day that we learned of his brilliant suggestion vis a vis the debt ceiling and impoverishing our future seniors:
Corker has this republican dickhead thing really down. He's got the look, the talk and that hand action is just the icing on the cake. Well done dickhead, well done.
Yes, Republicans, please try another debt-ceiling showdown. Hopey's not going to play again, though, just like he's not going to extend the Bush Brand© Tax Cuts again.
A black man's in charge and he's got nothing to lose, as Sully put it.
I dunno ... they have behaved like children for 4 years, what if that is coming to an end as OBAMANAZI crushes what little freedom the struggling Republicans have managed to preserve. By doing things like, oh I don&#039;t know ... <a href="http:\/\/livewire.talkingpointsmemo.com\/entry\/obama-administration-to-states-no-partial-medicaid-expansion" target="_blank">not funding partial Mediaid expansion</a> for those states that do not sign up.

Sen. Corker was an entrepreneur, which in this case apparently means snatching Hot Pockets from the hands of hungry orphans and kicking frail octogenarians in the shins.
Obviously positioning himself for 2016.
I thought that look meant that someone&#039;s hand was already up his ass.
You saved me having to look up the foul deed that made his name familiar. It was worse than I remembered.
The ad must have worked because Harold Ford, Jr. sounds like a Republican now.

His hand gesture looks like a GOP Shocker - 2 in the pink, 1 in your elderly mom&#039;s grocery budget.
It inspires all kinds of acts of voteolence.
Two in the pork, one in the cork!

I have a LOT of favors coming to me by that logic.

That pic looks like a bald man with a very hairy man standing exactly behind him.
Not enough of us thought they were serious.
Coming soon - on-the-spot euthanasia for anyone caught without an AmEx card or a GOP lapel pin...
