I really want to punch that guy in the mouth. I can abide most politicos (even Mitch McConell), but Cornyn is a grade-A asshole.

Ok. My rant is done.

1. Rest assured, he's not the only one....
you're actually being too kind. The venom they are spewing on a daily basis isn't coming from just one or two of them

2. I agree -- there's an unconcealable snideness in his voice
He has contempt for all but the ruling class.

4. Yeah, he's a grade A putz.
I write my Senators all the time. Kay Bailey at least writes back. This yo yo? NEVER, ever even bothers to acknowledge my existence as a constituent. Jerk, jerk, jerk.

6. Oh, he's much worse than that
He and Bush were buddies in raping Texas while W was governor. Bush took illegal campaign contributions, fired whistleblowers who criticized his favorite corporations, and committed perjury in his depositions over the resulting lawsuit, and Attorney General Cornyn just smiled and waved at him, while trying to prosecute one of Bush's potential opponents.

He's as slimy as the come.

8. I want to hit Cornyn hard with the fact that he has been lying about the
legal justification for saying that the Senate filibuster rule is unconsitutional. I plan to write and post a thread on this - something that was discussed weeks ago and must be raised again - later today. When I do, I'll link to it here. I hope your very justifiable anger at this horrible creep will fuel a real push on this issue.

9. visual aids
His visual aids in the Friday Senate were disgusting, suggesting that it now takes 60 votes to confirm a judge. Why doesn't anyone call them on this lie?
