Cozy with Acorn who blitzed the district doing what ACORN does best to help his election, Alan Grayson foams at the mouth with anger. The congressman from Florida’s 8th congressional district reeks of bitterness and hostility and isn’t afraid to let the world know about it in the most unfiltered terms.
The first term congressman was given the opportunity to address the House on health care for a five minute presentation complete with poster boards prepared. Part of his presentation was his opinion of the Republican plan. He indicated as he displayed a placard saying the same:
“Republicans want you to die quickly"
"If you get sick, America, the Republican health care plan is this: Die quickly," he said.
See for yourself as YouTube clips of this are readily available.

Grayson later had more outrageous comments on the health care issue: "I call upon all of us to do our jobs for the sake of America, for the sake of those dying people and their families. I apologize to the dead and their families that we haven't voted sooner to end this holocaust in America."
Speaking to the MSNBC audience for Ed Schultz’s program, Grayson cranked up the heat on Republicans and an organization he sees as their closest allies suggesting, "Fox News and their Republican collaborators are the enemy of America," and went on to opine, "People come on the air, they insult them as they did me. ... Why would anybody think that Fox News is some sort of valid news organization?"
More recently, the dishonorable congressman turned his attention to the economy speaking of Ben Bernanke aid, Linda Robertson, a Federal Reserve advisor, "This lobbyist, this K street whore, is trying to teach me about economics.” Obama praised 10/27 “Outstanding member of congress.”
So who is this tight-fisted rube of a first term congressman representing Florida citizens in the Orlando area in parts of Marion, Lake, and Orange counties?
Like many Floridians, he’s a snowbird born in the Bronx, NY. Surely, an Ivy Leaguer would be noted for high standards of civility and high browed rhetoric? Some how that distinction eludes Grayson who graduated summa cum laude from Harvard where he later received his law degree. He served as a law clerk and served as an associate for a Washington DC law firm before going into business as the first President of IDT Corporation, a diversified telecommunications company ranking Grayson as the 12th wealthiest member of Congress. Losing in his first bid for congress in 2006, he succeeded in 2008 and serves on the Committee on Financial Services, chaired by Barney Frank and the Committee on Science and Technology.
Prior to joining Congress, Grayson became well known as a fanatic critic of the Iraq War taking on a one man crusade against contractors perceived as unfairly profiting from the war. His car was bedecked with bumper stickers against the war including the infamous, “Bush lied: People Died” placard.
It’s little wonder Alan Grayson is highly touted by radical groups who appreciate his hot-tempered confrontational style drawing tremendous support from the Orlando chapter of Code Pink, a group that routinely attacks some of the nation’s most liberal figures for not going far enough. Apparently Grayson goes far enough!!! His comments draw rave reviews from Daily KOS bloggers who note that he called “a whore a whore.”
Where does Alan Grayson stand on school campaigns to deal with bullyism? Hmm....
