Not sure who the Democrat who said it was, but he had a huge ass poster of Leona Hemsley and her dog Trouble. He pointed out Trouble inherited $12 million, and will receive a tax cut. LOL Awesome

2. That Democrat is the first one to finally learn how to talk their language.
This is what it comes to. You have to put it down in simple terms. Something that is so obvious that it makes them look incredibly silly.

7. Would that be Congressman Joe Crowley from Queens?
Crowley Accuses G.O.P. of Being the Party of Leona Helmsley's Dog

December 2, 2010 | 2:03 p.m

Congress is debating today whether or not to extend the Bush-era tax cuts. Democrats are holding an up-or-down vote on extending them to those making less than $250,000 a year. Republicans, who want to extend them to all income earners, are calling this move "chicken crap."

But showing that two can play at this name-calling game, here is Congressman Joe Crowley from Queens, making a somewhat attenuated comparison of the Republican Party to Leona Helmsley's dog, Trouble.
