For those not able to watch the Senate proceeding, Sen. Kennedy of Louisianna has just proposed an

[Atticus]

amendment to the Paycheck Protection Program that equates all the "riots" in various cities in the past two years with the "riot" at the Capitol on January 6th. Anyone convicted of any type of felony in any of those "riots" would be denied benefits under PPP.

He then actually had the unmitigated gall to accuse those who opposed his amendment of not being "intellectually honest".

1. This is the fool

who compared mass shootings to drunk driving incidents at a Senate hearing on gun violence following the deadly shooting in Boulder, Colorado. He is just getting worse all the time.

2. ...and his stupid accent

It's so fake, just to fool the rubes of Louisiana.

Yeah, let's treat guns like cars, with registration, confiscation, constant safety upgrades, insurance, etc.

[Atticus]

6. If he was the rube he pretends to be, one could almost write off his positions to

ignorance. "Good ol' boy" John, though, attended Oxford after getting a BA from Vanderbilt and a law degree from University of Virginia.

He has chosen to be seen as a bumpkin because that's what Louisianna wants him to be.

3. Lumping their Big Insurection to a Demonstration Makes it the same?

No. That guy thinks he has a clever answer to everything. He has no street smarts.

[tetedur]

4. This is the fool who asked Amy Coney Barrett who did the laundry at her house.

[Turbineguy]

5. The House of Representatives has Louie Gohmert

The Senate has this guy.

Somebody has to be the dumbest person in the building.

8. Ron Johnson resembles that remark

He, Kennedy, Jim Inhoff and Tommy Tuberville are all locked in that battle.

9. The Senate

Is getting more and more like the House. It's sad.

7. Too Late

Beside the whole false equivalency thing, it's not last summer's predominantly peaceful protesters who stormed the Capitol after receiving thousands in PPP loans. That's the Magat/Hatriots, who are statistically more likely than the average American to have filed for bankruptcy, been delinquent on mortgages, or faced other economic pressures from mismanaging their money.

I don't hear him demanding clawbacks form the actual insurgents who've already been indicted for breaching the Capitol. FUnny....

[MiHale]

10. I've got to go back to college...

and get my Masters in Stupid because I really think I’m missing something.

[dlk]

11. Projection...

Republicans have made it one of their specialties.

[Jopin Klobe]

12. Kennedy graduated from ...

... Vanderbilt University and the University of Virginia School of Law before attending Magdalen College at the University of Oxford ...

... Vanderbilt and Oxford must be sooooo proud ...

13. Can't watch the hearing but I just fired this comment off to JK's twitter.

"There is NOTHING comparable to the insurrection of Jan 6 since the civil war. You are a lying fascist hypocrite and probably one of Trump's biggest enablers. I hope your constituents vote you out of office".

14. Worsening dementia - seriously

I'm in Louisiana and truly believe he has dementia that's getting worse and worse. I don't say this happily at all, but I sincerely believe it's evident.
