Nice...real nice you fuckin' douchebag.

Pete Sessions ® - Texas

"Insurgency, we understand perhaps a little bit more because of the Taliban," Sessions said. "And that is that they went about systematically understanding how to disrupt and change a person's entire processes. And these Taliban -- I'm not trying to say the Republican Party is the Taliban. No, that's not what we're saying. I'm saying an example of how you go about [sic] is to change a person from their messaging to their operations to their frontline message. And we need to understand that insurgency may be required when the other side, the House leadership, does not follow the same commands, which we entered the game with."

Sessions said the "Taliban" approach was a reaction to a lack of bipartisan outreach from House Democrats.

When asked to clarify:

"I simply said one can see that there's a model out there for insurgency," Sessions said before being interrupted by an aide. The staffer said Sessions was trying to convey that the Republicans need to start thinking about how to act strategically from their perch in the minority.

Awesome. So what one guy says while he trips over himself becomes "republicans". Sweet. That means Gov. Hot Rod from Ill. and Diane Tits Full of Cash Wilkerson and Chuck Turner speak for all democrats.

You are better than this.

You're right on this one. However, you have to admit that the GOP are not doing themselves any favors here with their response to the stimulus. I don't get it, frankly. Bush never met a spending bill he didn't like and the GOP were falling all over themselves to give him spending bills to sign. Now, all of a sudden they're fiscal conservatives? This is yet another example of putting party above country and they're just prolonging their stay in the wilderness. jerks like sessions making comments like this won't help either.
