Join Me In Co-Sponsoring The Alan Grayson Is a Gasbag Act
by Kyle OlsonTo the people of Orlando: your long Florida nightmare may soon be over. Congressman Alan Grayson is up for re-election this year.
But in the mean time, he’s continuing his gasbaggery. He’s taking up President Obama’s mantle of intimidating the Supreme Court and has introduced several bills so political free speech can once again be squelched.
Grayson has introduced several pieces of legislation aimed at restricting political speech, according to the George Soros-funded Secretary of State Project. But first, a bit about that group.
SOS was formed to elect Secretaries of State around the country that will be tolerant of ACORN-style voter registration and Election Day shenanigans. The Minnesota recount debacle – and seating of Al Franken – came courtesy of Secretary of State Mark Ritchie, an SOS Project recruit.
So now the Soros-funded SOS Project is pushing Grayson’s package of bills. The interpretations of them come courtesy of SOS, not me:
1. The Business Should Mind Its Own Business Act (H.R. 4431): Implements a 500% excise tax on corporate contributions to political committees, and on corporate expenditures on political advocacy campaigns.
2. The Public Company Responsibility Act (H.R. 4435): Prevents companies making political contributions and expenditures from trading their stock on national exchanges.
3.The End Political Kickbacks Act (H.R. 4434): Prevents for-profit corporations that receive money from the government from making political contributions, and limits the amount that employees of those companies can contribute.
4. The Corporate Propaganda Sunshine Act (H.R. 4432): Requires publicly-traded companies to disclose in SEC filings money used for the purpose of influencing public opinion, rather than to promoting their products and services.
5. The Ending Corporate Collusion Act (H.R. 4433): Applies antitrust law to industry PACs.
6. The End the Hijacking of Shareholder Funds Act (H.R. 4487): This bill requires the approval of a majority of a public company’s shareholders for any expenditure by that company to influence public opinion on matters not related to the company’s products or services.
SOS signs off by saying, “Our elected officials should be chosen by voters on election day, not by corporations at the auction block.”
Just curious, do labor unions, like the Obama-campaign bankrolling SEIU count? Will the “Business Should Mind Its Own Business Act” also apply to compulsory dues squeezed out of union members and prevent those from being spent on political activities?
No, Congressman Grayson? Didn’t think so. So it’s free speech for Andy Stern and SEIU but not those “evil corporations.” Or maybe they negotiated a carve-out, like they did for the tax on “Cadillac health plans.”

Alan Grayson, while a caricature of a buffoon, is at heart a thoroughly dangerous man. He, and his ilk are indeed threats to our Republic, our very way of life. Don't forget his counterpart from Florida, Congresswoman Wasserman.
This disgusting low life made anti-christian comments on the house floor a week or two ago….. Check it out in the congressional record
Should have suspected Soros was behind this. Convicted felon George Soros is behind some of the climate misinformation movement. Like Joe ARomm and climate progress.
No one likes Alan Grayson quite as much as Alan Grayson.
Perhaps he would like to apply the same set of restrictions to non profits and labor unions?
I think Alan Grayson and mikatohlla are one and the same…?
Words cannot describe Grayson. Hopefully the voters of Florida's 8th district have enough Lamisil to cure that fungal toe infection they have been struggling with since Jan 3rd, 2009…!
500% excise tax? I know we've been living in the twilight zone for too long, but this one blows me away.
He looks like a clown out of a Stephen King novel.
"Come here leetle children…."
No No…Mika is Bertha Lewis. I am sure of it.
Alan Grayson would have been embraced by Hitler. I could picture him in a Third Reich uniform like Von Ribbentrop wore and being in charge of a conquered province in Poland where he would engage in brutal war crimes, and be subsequently charged at Nuremberg. He is unfit for any office, period.
The GOP needs to embrace the Tea Party movement TODAY, and quit apologizing to these vermin.

I would agree with all that sorta…If Grayson wasn't Jewish!
I would be happy to join you in ratifying the Alan Grayson is a Gas Bag Act of 2010. Question; Is he a gas bag or is he just plain crazy?
Grayson is a Harvard educated lawyer. This appears to be a common thread among the progressives/Marxists.
if the old bugger hates corporations (which employ millions in america) he should renounce his citizenship and move to north korea, there are no corporations there (no jobs or food either)
Einy,
Mikatolla is actually "Captain America" don't you know. Decorated Air Force pilot. I realize he does sound a lot like Grayson though.
Ain't that right Capt America?
I think it’s good for our side! Perhaps we could have, “The Alan Grayson Nightly Fireside Chat Show,” too reaffirm the insanity of the progressive left.
Between retirements, deaths, gasbag moments and sheer stupidity, the dimocraps are making the 2010 elections Sooooooooooooooooooo interesting.
Grayson should crawl back under Barney's desk.
Stop the cute gasbag routine. He looks and sounds like an escapee from an institution.
Does the word "Kapo" mean anything to you?
Yeti asked:
Is he a gas bag or is he just plain crazy?
4arepublic's comment followed:
Grayson is a Harvard educated lawyer.
Which means, Yeti, that the two are not mutually exclusive…
Full disclosure: My dad was a Yale man (back when that meant something), so I have a predisposition to hate anything Harvard (Gore, Obama, Kennedy, etc.). He was also a Harvard MBA, so I give George W. Bush a pass.
Gasbag? Nah, more like a dickhead.
Alan, I think I just heard John Murtha calling you.
(sorry, I do my best to avoid crass comments, but this is the most crass man in congress and an enemy of our constitution)
Grayson and Wasserman Schultz are complete embarrassments to our state… Thanks to all the transplanted north-eastern libtards who moved to FL to escape the high costs of their progressive utopias and keep voting the same way, I have a feeling we will continue to have these kind of retards (oops, used the "R" word) representing parts of our state.
As a Jew, I am ashamed of Soros and Grayson – they are a disgrace to the Jewish people.
If Grayson was in a Nazi prison camp, getting special treatment, then perhaps it would mean something to me…!
Is it just me, or does he look like Otto, the inflatable pilot from 'Airplane!'?
His constituents should find out where he is living this month and then send him packing.
I was cautious not to word my post where I'd be branded an anti-semite, but ya know, enough, is just about enough. There is a disproportionate representation in the Senate and Congress, and nobody, I mean NOBODY will ever address it. Other than Dhasselhoff………..
Get rid of him Florida. Don't let him rack up the years to draw a lifetime pension form the taxpayers.
Are the people of Orlando as disgusted with this guy as most Americans? Does he even have a chance to be re-elected this year? What are the local polls on this dirtbag?
As in, they are both big gasbags?! So true ~
mik is a midwestern fascist…but its easy to get the two confused…they sound exactly the same, thanks to the same programming…
Just give mik the "…obvious troll…" treatment I've been doing lately…he won't engage on that…and only give him one retort, then move on…he's untreatable, due to lack of brain cells on his part…
I really want to keep him here, though…he won't wander off and confuse some weak-willed person into supporting Dimocrat ideas somewhere else…
Not Hitler…
Marx…Karl Marx…
And where's our usual anti-Sem trolls, anyway…? Here's some decent red meat for them, and all I hear is crickets…
His actions remind me of the great gasbag socialist Huey P Long of Louisianna in the 1930's. Not that I'm quite that old, but I read about him in funny things called "books". Anyway Huey was full of himself and thought everyone would love him if he gave them "stuff" as governor of the state. As I recall, he ruined himself and the state and has come to be somewhat of a joke or a folk hero, depending on your political persuasion. And he was a crook, to boot.
He was assasinated, I believe, in the end. Grayson is dangerous in that he thinks he is important and can influence government. He is a baffoon and kind of reminds me of one of the apes from Planet of the Apes, no? Just saying.
Be advised that Grayson works for Soros, also Jewish, who was nonetheless a Nazi collaborator.
But if you like your Fascism without the peculiarly German antisemitic twist, then compare Trotsky.
More like…"Alan Grayson's Latest Gasbag Inflation"…lots of fart noises, like the campfire scene in "Blazing Saddles"…
Play a "fair use" clip of the theme song in the background…don't worry, everyone would get it…
what happened? Did he get a weekend pass from Disney World to go to Washington??? He looks like Goofey and acts like one too…..yeah, a Harvard edumacated lawyer that couldn'y even make it at Disney World in Orlando…..sad to see all that money wasted on an education that easily could have been earned via correspondence University in the mail….
What..?
I don't have a problem with it…
Besides, John needs a break from Teddy's whining, anyway…
More like a 747 with the "stretch" lounge on the top…
That pompus windbag, sorry, gasbag, needs to be run out of town on a rail. His high-and-mighty speeches do nothing to promote this country. All he succeeds at is making himself look like a shaved baboon, with a bad razor.
This guy gives buffoons and douchebags a bad name.
Soros was "adopted" by his own father as his Christian godson in an effort to shield him from the looming Nazi invasions. Soros was 14 when this happened, and watched as his neighbors and friends were beaten, killed, and had their property stolen. He did nothing to stop any of it, nor does he have any remorse for any of this, nor does he have a conscience. And a lack of conscience is said to be a common symptom of sociopaths. As horrible as all that is, I'm not sure if I would consider him a Nazi sympathizer, as much as just a run of the mill sociopath…!?
Never mind…they're all over supporting the Jihadists scrotes like the jock straps they are…
Gasbag ? No scumbag !!!!!
cause non-profits and labor unions give to Democrats.
And does this a$$ even know about the first amendment protecting freedom of speech, even political speech?
He also don't understand "no bill of attainder".
Wait, wait, wait, The End the Hijacking of Shareholder Funds Act (H.R. 4487) could be fantastic! I'm assuming that it would apply to unions, too, right? Then maybe ultra-liberal union bosses can't spend that actual working employees' dues on furthering counter-productive, socialist, Utopian ideas. What, unions aren't covered under the bill?!? Oh, never mind…
Nazi, too strong. Commie, almost there. IDIOT! Just right.
Worthless airsucker.
Harvard Graduate huh, would it be considered anti-intellectual to close that esteem university down?? Me thinks I dont care, time to clean house at academia. Let's start by requiring universities that accept federal student loan dollars to hold costs to the rate of inflation.
First Obama who doesn't seem to understand 'seperation of powers' and 'Marbury v Madison" and now this dolt is also a Harvard Educated Lawyer. Make me want to see what the hell they teach at Havard Law School.
"Gassbaggery!" Love that word. Just poke holes in him and let him naturally deflate. Stand clear, though-that will be a lot of hot air entering the atmosphere. Be sure to give Al Gore a heads up on that.
Alan Grayson is just one of Soro's lapdogs who is blinded by power and money like his sock puppet, the slow learner occupying the WH.
Looks like the dude from SLING BLADE…
"a sociopath whose only religion is power."
LOL…We could have summed our whole discussion up with that one sentence, as it applies to Grayson as well…=)
Just looking at that picture shows the arrogance in his face. He obviously believes he's some sort of prince of congress, better than us serfs out here in the kingdom. What a loser!! Come on Orlando get rid of this guy!! Do something good for America!!!
Peg Dunmire is running in FL-08 to unseat Greyson. She's a small business owner local to Orlando, a medical professional, and a Tea Partier! She's not a professional politician, but an American that has decided to stand up for our country. Check out her website and support her as she is working to bring freedom to Florida! Website: http://www.dunmireforcongress.com/
Absolutely correct. He is an unstable man, and much like Obama is a danger and a threat to our liberty. TRUST ME, as Orlando Conservatives we are moving to crush this menace, and end his 15 minutes of radical infamy.
There isn't much difference between Nazism and Communism. Grayson doesn't act like Jew if you think about it.
All he had to do was lie, which he does well
No way could I agree more. This thug is a disgrace to our country, and especially to the state of Florida. Surely Florida voters will send this a$$hole to the obsolete bin.
Soros needs to go where his accent came from. And Arrianna Huff Puff needs to go where her accent came from too. We don't need these foreign Communist here in our country with more voice than any American born Patriot has. Send them out of our country or better yet, put them in front of a firing squad.
A waste of skin and air.
Yes, I live here and no one except my uber lib cuz likes him.
Here's a post I did on his list of Soros free speech hating bills: http://capmsblog.blogspot.com/2010/02/obama-say-j...
Floridians, like me, don't want this turd in Washington and we don't want him here either. Let's see…….I have it! We can drop him in the Everglades with a dead chicken tied around his neck. Yeah! That's the ticket!
Grayson has one of those faces that just makes one want to put on a pair of lead powdered slapping gloves and go to town. However, he was elected by the people for the people.
Let me get this straight – George Soros and his corporation(s)/commitee(s) are instituting laws to prevent other corporation(s)/commitee(s) from doing precisely what Soros and his ilk does/doing?!?
Looks like "whats good for the goose, is not good for the gander" – but this is status quo for the Podesta/Soros PAC(s). and progressive libiots in general – Encouraging & defending 1st amendment rights, but those rights only honor our speech/interests.. (Do as I say & shut your mouth, because I can- and will – shut it for you)
Soros needs to be deported ASAP – France and Hungary would like to have a word with him.
Also, on a side note, Grayson has that "punchable face" look – Does anyone else agree with me on that?
Alan Grayson's arrogance is matched only by his idiocy. The man is easy to hate, and revels in the reactions he generates. But don't blame Florida for his attitudes and actions. Grayson, like the majority of Florida's current population, is from elsewhere. He's a recent arrival from Virginia, as I understand it. Neither he nor the people who voted for him can be truly considered to reflect the attitudes of real Floridians. Most of us would just as soon treat him to a tar and feather party, and run him out of town on a rail. Some of the old recreations still have some allure.
3.The End Political Kickbacks Act (H.R. 4434): Prevents for-profit corporations that receive money from the government from making political contributions, and limits the amount that employees of those companies can contribute.
So, they're talking about companies like GM and Chrysler, right? And since their employees are union members, that would mean that the amounts those unions contributed would be limited, right?
4. The Corporate Propaganda Sunshine Act (H.R. 4432): Requires publicly-traded companies to disclose in SEC filings money used for the purpose of influencing public opinion, rather than to promoting their products and services.
Oh, like General Electric who owns NBC?
At this point, I'd like to propose another bill…it's called the "Congressmen Should Learn the Constitution Act" (HR 1787)
"Grayson has that "punchable face" look – Does anyone else agree with me on that? "
Oh yes. Very punchable.
Did any of you notice his tie? He thinks he is playing Monopoly with our hard earned money. It's not his money so why not spend it all, or at the very least keep us from having any to spend ourselves.
Alan Grayson looks more like a mafia hit man than a public servant… Are we sure there is no tie to Gotti??
OK, OK!….. I get the picture,..S
So Grayson is a whacko.
Hell! every congressional district has whackos.
What I do not understand is how does one get elected?????
Orlando….. Can you shed some light on this, please????
What has happened to his head that makes it all large and unsightly?
It must be from the paint chips his mother fed him as a child.
THAT's where I recognized him from!
Aw ……..that won't work. I forgot about 'professional courtesy'. Damn.
S.O.S.– hhhmmm sounds just exactly like what my Grandma used to make for a cheap dinner once in awhile!!
Is that what we are being fed??? What an appropriate name!!
Or in this case does S.O.S. stand for S.O.L.uck- which I hope they are!!
Toodles…
Grayson gets a lot of support.

Alan Grayson is a gasbag … and a dumb one at that.
He was Ponzi'd: http://www.clickorlando.com/news/20007006/detail….

Hahvahd educated…whatever…
If he represents what they teach (ahem, er, uh, indoctrinate) those who attend, that speaks volumes about that institution.
I would define it as a club that elites attend to feel like they are soooo superior to everyone else.
Grayson has a look on his face like he just enjoyed a good fisting
This man is an arrogant ass.
There may be a lot of merit to this clown's bills, if – and only if – they are applied to unions.
Every one of these proposed bills highlights documented abuses of union members and nonmembers by the unions and bosses, in forcing them to pay dues and using them for partisan political purposes.
Let's hope some observant republican notices the irony and potential for unintended consequences the too-smart-by-half Grayson has created.
We just can't underestimate the power of the progressive movement in America! If these elected people were just buffoons, what does that make the people who voted for them, I'm not even getting into the Obama fiasco?
Hope you are right. Only time will tell?
Why? We voted for an Islam born and trained in Kenya and a Marxist espousing black man! Is that not a green light?
Hey, I could also say that about BHO!
We have a winner!

except sweet Julie Hagerty would NEVER blow him up!
Alan Grayson is like Hermann Goering- easy to parody as a clown, but in reality a stone-cold, conniving fascist.
I knew this waste of space was a scum-bag demagogue of the worst sort but I wasn't aware of his Nazi style tactics in shutting down opposition. And I thought Waxman & Wiener were bad. Get going, people of FL, and flush this guy once and for all!
Looks like a mobster to me. Put a fedora on him and he could be the next Dillinger.
Want to stop hot air from politicians—stop sending them money.
Soros, by his own admission, went to work for the Nazis cataloging looted Jewish property for shipment back to the Reich.Does that mean he embraced Nazi ideology? Of course not. It does however make him, as you say, a sociopath whose only religion is power.
I would join the cause but I'm appalled by the title of the act. It should be Alan Grayson is an Ass Hole Act.
I would think that Grayson has more in common with "painful rectal itch" than he does with Athlete's Foot. As such, wouldn't the appropriate treatment be Preparation H instead of Lamisil?
He'll be gone soon enough. exit stage right.
May the beetle browed, knuckle dragging pinhead be shown the door this November.
Grayson is guilty of douche-baggery.
