IT’S CRAZY DAY AT MMA: JIM BUNNING IS AT IT AGAIN!
Whackpacker Jim Bunning, far from being cowed by the national exposure of his recent effort to hold up unemployment benefits for millions of laid-off workers, is back at it in the Senate.
The Kentucky Republican battled Democrats on the Senate floor Tuesday to block two nominations to relatively backbench positions — because he is opposed to a tobacco-related law passed by the Canadian Parliament (that’s right, the Canadian Parliament). The use of such delaying tactics is not unprecedented in Senate history, but holding up such minor business stretches the purpose of the Senate’s open debate rules to the breaking point.
Here is what Senator Al Franken had to say about Bunning’s shenanigans:

LOL! Great comments guys…Yes Bee! Bunning is a perversion…
It is odd that legislators like Franken who are sane and rational sound like they are fighting windmills in the midst of insanity and irrationality.
It’s a funny thing that Bunning has gone a little nuts just lately, I think it’s because of spring training for Major League Baseball, he’s itching to get out on the diamond, throw a few fast balls to confuse the opposition, then a few curve balls for good measure and when he his leading in the count, unleash his sinker. The old geezer thinks his playing baseball.
I love the way Franken says “it’s a perversion!” Well, yeah, Bunning is a Kentucky Republican. He IS a perversion.
Mike every single day that ends in a Y, is crazy day for (R- I got smacked in the head by balls in my last career Bunning).
Mike, he’s crazy in his own right, but isn’t he just goose stepping behind the filibastard GOP leadership?
