Tea Party Rep. Farenthold To Disabled Vets Hurt By GOP Shut-Down: ‘You have to Make Sacrifices!’
Congressman Blake Farenthold (R- Texas via every fast food restaurant in the state) told veterans about to lose their disability checks due to the government shutdown, that they would have to make sacrifices.
Because goodness knows that former soldiers receiving disability haven’t already made extreme sacrifices. For this country. To keep it free.
Let us quote the Congressman since this statement cannot be paraphrased
“I feel like my mandate when I was elected was to go reduce the size of government, lower taxes, and increase freedom, and freedom isn’t free, and sometimes you have to make a small sacrifice to move forward with what you’re after,” Farenthold said.

Perhaps a shiny turd.
fuck all what making said sacrificies are ALL ABout!
Speaking of "mandates".. President Obama's Mandate was to try and help Disabled Vets so fuckers like farenthold couldn't screw them six ways from Sunday!
Which happens to be entirely for combat disability.
We sacrificed, asshole. Your turn.
Time to put this jerkwad on double secret probation.
“Duckie Pajamas” Man/Boy Republican Shows up on CNN – Talks Dream Act
By Jelly Bean - June 18, 2012
When CNN’s Soledad O’Brien tapped REPUBLICAN Rep Blake Farenthold from Corpus Christie Texas, to comment on Obama’s half dream act, (shocker, he’s against it) Soledad had no clue what a fat, Vitter type, lip licking scumbag Blake F is.
(OBVIOUSLY anti Obama republicans had to send the absolute barrel bottom since most Republicans voted FOR the dream act)
In 2010 Blake Farenthold ran against Democrat Rep. Solomon Ortiz and as the race got heated out popped a picture of a very rotund Farenthold, from a pajama party at a local bar in May 2009, with women dressed in leather and chaps.
Now there’s nothing wrong with Farenthold’s raunchy duck pajama pictures posing with a lingerie model from The Crush Girls… it’s just a normal little republican type FUNDRAISER for salivating, rich, tossed aside, wrinkled white men who have no choice but to blow a goat on the net... sorta probably like Duckie there.

Duckie Pajamas has talked about impeachment, too:
WaPo - "Rep. Farenthold says House could impeach Obama" -August 2013
At a Texas open house, Rep. Blake Farenthold (R-Tex.) cited disappointment regarding the outcome of President Obama's birth certificate reveal and said House Republicans could drum up enough votes to impeach him.
"I think unfortunately the House is already out of the barn on this, on the whole birth certificate issue," he said. "The original Congress, when his eligibility came up, should have looked into it and they didn't. I'm not sure how we fix it."
Farenthold posed his own hypothetical solution: "If we were to impeach the president tomorrow, you could probably get the votes in the House of Representatives to do it. But it would go to the Senate and he wouldn't be convicted."
Though the White House published Obama's long-form birth certificate in April 2011, Farenthold is not alone in his frustration. Last year's Washington Post-ABC News poll found that a third of self-identified Republicans and conservatives suspected or believed that the president was born outside the United States. Though interest in the topic comes in waves, Donald Trump, who never left the issue, attempted to revive the campaign against Obama's legitimacy as an American-born citizen in an interview with ABC's "This Week."

Pretty predictable, huh? Now talking down to disabled veterans that Congress sent off to war. Stay classy, GOP!
