Alan Grayson: Glenn Beck Fans Wore "Sheets Over Their Heads"

OrlandoSentinel.com:

Since his election two years ago, Orlando Democrat U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson’s fame has multiplied exponentially with every inflammatory remark.


Every time he says something like the Republicans’ health care plan is to “die quickly” or that Dick Cheney is a vampire who should “STFU,” he becomes a bigger hero to liberals and a bigger target of conservatives. Now there’s another addition to the list of Grayson’s greatest hits.


During an appearance on the progressive talk-radio “Stephanie Miller Show” on Thursday — part of a regular segment called “Face the Grayson” — the congressman likened those who attended Glenn Beck’s rally last week at the Lincoln Memorial to Ku Klux Klan members.


Miller: “The Glenn Beck thing — is that going to have an effect in November? To me, they were, I’m sorry, mostly old, white … mostly McCain-Palin leftovers, weren’t they? These aren’t new voters, these are people that have always voted Republican.”


Grayson: “These are people who were wearing sheets over their heads 25 years ago.”


The congressman also repeated one of his recent favorites: “You only have three friends in life: God, your mama, and the Democratic Party.”

I know that Stephanie Miller is a staunch liberal (and ironically a FOX News contributor), but for her to laugh at this idiot's remark comparing Beck fans to the KKK without realizing how much his sheer stupidity hurts the "progressive cause" is pretty sad. Alan Grayson appeals to dumb liberals who like to scream and shake their fists, that's it. Alan Grayson is a dishonest scaremonger and an all-around scumbag. Comparing your political opponents fans to the KKK is so disgusting and beyond the pale that it leaves you with little wonder why this country is so fed up with the Left.
