The savior of the Republican Party? Really?
From the Department of You Can't Make This Shit Up*, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-INSANE), on who he
thinks should replace John Boehner as speaker of the House:
“Look, these are trying times for our nation. It’s important to have a steady hand on the helm during times like this. I think experience really counts in a matter like this. I think House leadership experience really matters. And as you know the speaker doesn’t have to be a member of the House: So therefore, Vice President Cheney for speaker.”
A steady hand? O-kay. (And somewhere in Texas, Harry Whittington whimpers ...)
*Alternate lede: Just how desperate is the Republican Party?
