http://bit.ly/7KYPyr - - - WASHINGTON — Not everyone thinks imitation is the best form of flattery.
In fact, U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson of Orlando took such offense at a parody website aimed at unseating him that the freshman Democrat has asked that U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder investigate the Lake County activist who started the anti-Grayson website “mycongressmanisnuts.com.” Specifically, Grayson accuses Republican activist Angie Langley of lying to federal elections. His four-page complaint highlights the fact that the Clermont resident lives outside his district, but that Langley still uses the term “my” in “mycongressmanisnuts.com.” “Ms. Langley has deliberately masqueraded as a constituent of mine, in order to try to create the false appearance that she speaks for constituents who don’t support me,” writes Grayson. “[She] has chosen a name for her committee that is utterly tasteless and juvenile.” Grayson’s office did not respond with comment other than to confirm the letter exists — including its request that Langley be fined and “imprisoned for five years.” - - - Greyson has more than a few screws loose. In fact, I think he's a certifiable lunatic. This is the loony new totalitarian left that runs the once-proud Democrat party. They're funny until they're in power, and then you understand -- too late -- why the Framers put all the safeguards they did in the Constitution. Unfortunately when enough of them are in power, the Constitution might as well be a roll of Charmin toilet paper, as is the case now. They scoff at the very idea that the federal government mandating a person must buy a particular product or go to jail might not be a Constitutional power. Sad thing is, most Americans view all this as a kind of spectator sport. While some of it is funny, dramatic and engaging, it's also serious stuff. Hopefully next year America will get its head screwed on right and send psychopaths like Greyson et al. packing back to their districts. I wish it could be done sooner. - Publius -- "It ought never to be forgotten, that a firm union of this country, under an efficient government, will probably be an increasing object of jealousy to more than one nation of Europe; and that enterprises to subvert it will sometimes originate in the intrigues of foreign powers, and will seldom fail to be patronized and abetted by some of them. Its preservation, therefore ought in no case that can be avoided, to be committed to the guardianship of any but those whose situation will uniformly beget an immediate interest in the faithful and vigilant performance of the trust."
