Mikey Doherty makes me laugh and smack my head into the keyboard...

All at the same time, too. No small feat, that.

For those who don't know, Mikey Doherty(R-23rd) is one of our two elected morons in the State Assembly, from the 23rd Assembly District(Warren/Hunterdon). The other one is the oft-rumoured but little-seen Connie Myers, who some say is a taco short of a full combo plate. During the day, Connie was seen crying over the vote. Take your meds, dear.

Seems that in the assembly, they were voting on The Highlands Bill the other day. You certainly must know what that is, so I won't bore you with the details. Somehow, Mikey, who is usually restrained into a chair and gagged by the repuke handlers, lest he get up and embarass them all, got loose and got to speaking:

Salient Quote: "When I was in the Army, we dug a trench and peed into it. If that was good enough for the army, it is good enough for everyone". Or words to that effect. I am working on getting a transcript for more accurate wording.

The things we elect in this district. The things we elect.

and thought it was great joke not to tell him it existed.

2. Myers won't got to GOP caucus meetings

She threatened not to campaign for anyone that voted for the Highlands bill and now the republicans say that she has to apologize if she wants to attend caucus meetings. So far, she hasn't shown up or said sorry.
