Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) aka\u00a0\u201cCrazy Uncle Coburn\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

would you accept this man as your physician?<\/p>\n

He turned the important issue of public White House tours – temporarily suspended because of sequestration – \u00a0into his own personal \u201cBENGHAAAAAAZZZZZIIIII!\u201d. He\u00a0campaigned to keep\u00a0Schindler\u2019s List<\/em> off the air because he deemed it obscene (the nudity part, not the holocaust part). He warned Oklahomans of rampant lesbianism in the southeast portion of the state. He did a crossword puzzle during a senate hearing, then \u2013 literally \u2013 cried about the participants not taking the hearings seriously. He backed the “birther bill” and supports executing abortionists<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

He suddenly and heroically grew a \u201cVan Dyke\u201d goatee which gave him the power to single-handedly slash<\/span><\/a><\/strong> the\u00a09\/11 first-responder health benefits bill<\/span><\/a> <\/strong>from $7.4 billion in benefits and compensation to $1.5 for benefits and $2.7 for compensation. Plus, he added an expiration date to the fund – five years and out, so hurry up and get your 9\/11-related cancer now, 9\/11 guys.\u00a0You simply must visit New York sometime, Mr. Coburn, take the “wife” to a Broadway show then the cops can set you on fire and firemen wouldn’t piss on you to put it out.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He lived in that Christian group townhouse on Capitol Hill<\/em> with John Ensign<\/span><\/strong>,<\/a> and was the go-between for Doug Hampton and Ensign when the former aide demanded millions of dollars in payments to rebuild his shattered career after leaving Capitol Hill. \u00a0He panders to the NRA while maintaining a\u00a0holier-than-thou faux-Christian facade, even when counseling a fellow GOPer on how best to get away with adultery and extortion.\u00a0He apparently is a medical doctor, but thinks climate change is “malarkey” and that women who had abortions are more likely to commit suicide and have substance abuse problems. More likely than whom?? And also – calling abortions murder?<\/p>\n

While ranting to a bunch of slack-jawed goobers in his home state, he said:<\/p>\n

“It’s just a good thing I can’t pack a gun on the Senate floor.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Now, if you or I said we wanted to pack a gun on the Senate floor – to get things done the way we want – we’d be arrested, right? But Coburn wasn’t through being an imbecile:<\/p>\n

“As an African-American male, Obama received “tremendous advantage from a lot of these programs.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Who knew? \u00a0I guess that’s why blacks are doing so much better than whites in this country. Anyway, he referred to the 87 freshmen Republican House idiots as \u201cthe most wonderful thing to happen to our country in a long time,\u201d<\/em> and that they \u201care a fantastic addition to the debate in this country “, <\/em>and he was admonished by the ethics committee for lobbying offenses and he “failed to meet the higher standards expected of a U.S. Senator”.<\/p>\n

Coburn double-downed on handing out disaster relief funding “without spending cuts elsewhere”, even after tornadoes were\u00a0ripping the living shit <\/span><\/a><\/strong>out\u00a0of\u00a0his own state.\u00a0Senator Coburn, under one condition. All of the emergency aid you receive has to be offset by funds that would have gone to residents, companies, operations, and programs in the State of Oklahoma. It’s the least your constituents deserve for your Tea Party purity and it saves the rest of Americans who’ve never voted for you from the lunacy (and hardships) of your emergency aid views. Seems only fair. Oklafuckinghoma, like most red states, are oinking fat net recipients of our tax money. So sure, Coburn. Take it out of your state’s federal pork.<\/p>\n

Oklahomans voted this lunatic to the U.S. Senate,\u00a0so we can assume they agree with his views. Glad I don’t live there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
