Words of Wisdom from Capitol Hill
Howdy, Capitolists. Glad to see you've finally noticed this thread. Please feel free to continue this conversation over here, if you'd like. All input welcome, bring on the flames—I'm all set for a barbeque on this drizzly day!
America, this is what the idiots that we send to Washington think of you. (Thanks to JDawg for posting this link over in Michelle's little world)

Yes, the Metro in July. Honestly, is there some kind of charter that says that you must be 50 lbs overweight, dress in clothes that don't fit, and reek to high hell from all the sweat generated by walking five feet before you are allowed to tour this city. Also, don't flock like lemmings to the one escalator that is working, walk up the stairs, to the left at all times, and don't crowed around the doors, the rest of us would kike to get on as well.

Insulting the people who come to tour our nation's capital as being a bunch of smelly, overweight morons? Classy.
1.) The real problem is our foreign policy [f**king s**t] up for farmers in central Mexico; Do the anti-immigrant folks really all think immigrants want to leave their hometowns? their whole family? all of their culture [Ed.: They seem to be taking that with them, idiot. You would know this if you ever left Washington for a freakin' minute!] and their history and make a dangerous, expensive trip up here just for the dubious luxury of scrubbing your toilet and picking your vegetables? costing you money, my a**. The ugly little secret is that by and large Americans want things convenient and cheap and they don't want to work too hard for them. You don't want people to come to the US for jobs? fine. Put in place some decent trade agreements that don't [f**k] people over.2.) Why do all the fattest tourists pick the hottest month of the year to come to DC? Put the cheeseburger down! YES, you will have to walk everywhere. YES, you should have started training for this before you left Ohio, or Missouri, or whatever small midwestern town you came from. And lest I for get WALK LEFT, STAND RIGHT. wow, i feel better.

Staffers in Congress hate tourists, in case you haven't noticed.
(More meaty Congressional goodness can be found beyond the break.)
Senate staffers: Please tell your members to vote in favor
of the immigration bill….so these ignorant [f**kers] will stop calling us!!!!

Too bad the English didn't finish burning Washington to the ground in the War of 1812...
Is anyone else alarmed by the amount of email comming in on the CAFE standard??? There seems to be a large number of [f**ktards] who actually want the standard kept where it is. What the cock is this [s**t]. How quickly we forget 9/11, Afghanistan, and oh... IRAQ!
35 mpg by 2020!!!! TWENTY F**KING TWENTY. Half of those jacka**es sending emails won't even be alive. And really, how much oil is going to be left by then? Someone plow down Senator Bond with Hummer.
6/21/2007 - 9:27 am
I would, but I've been told that Hummers are too destructive to the environment...
From the AP...only a matter of time before the Religious right tries to use this to buttress their argument about the dangers of sex... COLUMBIA, S.C. — Police on Wednesday were investigating how a naked couple fell 50 feet from the roof of a downtown office building to their deaths. The bodies were found on the road by a passing cabdriver around 5 a.m. Wednesday.Clothing was discovered on the roof, leading authorities to suspect the man and woman, in their early 20s, may have been having sex. Their identities were not released."It's too early to rule out anything," Columbia police Sgt. Florence McCants said, but McCants said a preliminary investigation didn't show any sign of foul play.

The Religious Right is always a timely target for your rage. It's not like we have any real enemies or anything, you idiot.
What do people think about making English the official language? Cualquier persona que gastado en cualquier momento fuera de los estados -- o los estados rojos para esa materia -- sepa el mundo es un lugar grande, pero americanos hablará siempre inglés. [Translation, courtesy Google: What do people think about making official English the language? Any spent person who at any time outside the states -- or the red states for that matter -- the world knows is a great place, but American it will speak always English.]

We get it, you tool. We Red Staters are an ignorant bunch of bumf**ks.
Update: Eagle-eyed reader Jim M. has discovered that the Spanglish used in the above citation is itself a machine-generated translation. Now I don't feel so bad for forgetting my 3 years of high school Spanish, since the staffer in question is equally as retarded. (And hypocritical as heck, considering he's chastising Americans for "no habla espanoling.")
'Course, I took Spanish Spanish in school, which is quite different than that totally awful dialect they use in "Undocumented America." Anyway, here's the meat of Jim's e-mail:
First of all, it's "ha gastado" which is probably the reason that Google got it wrong. Second, I think it would be "cualquiera persona". Third, I think "en cualquier momento" is an odd translation for "any time", perhaps "algo tiempo"? The rest smells like some other search engine translation: "for that matter" is not "para esa materia", it's "en realidad".
You'd think someone showing off their supposed skills would present a better command of the language <shrug>.
Of course, keep in mind that I'm a retard when it comes to speaking "the Spanish," so take the above with as much salt as you feel is necessary.
No kidding. The pro:con ratio of calls [related to the Immigration bill] is probably 1:19 here. That's because the people who are "for" it are busy working and not calling Senate offices.

Yeah, keep telling yourself that. Or maybe, they aren't legally allowed to vote?
letters, letters, letters--lets raise stamp prices to 5 bucks a pop--that'll stop people from writing to their reps!
6/19/2007 - 9:50 am
Do I need to remind you who Congress works for, moron?
Is it just me or has the hill gotten a lot uglier since the Democrats took control?
Absolutely right. We need to keep our nation's Capitol prettyand wholesome. And I believe I speak for many of our repbulican colleagues when I say, "too many black people around here too." I just wish there were some way to round up all the ugly people and blacks and gays and put them in some kind of camp. You know, keep their populations "concentrated."

Insinuating that REPUBLICANS ARE RACISTS? You seriously need to work on some new material...
[link]
Insulting Republican women for being... conservative? Never heard THAT one before.
God bless Dennis Kucinich. I'm glad someone has the balls to go down to the House floor and defend the much maligned and misunderstood President of Iran, whatever his name is. Good peeps defending the honor of other good peeps. That's what it's all about.

"Thank you for finally standing up for me!"
Personally, I'm hoping that was "sarcasm."
great. more immigration debate. just what i need: 200 calls a day from raving lunatics.
6/18/2007 - 11:54 am
Aww, shucks! Thanks for the Insty link, Glenn!
