They prove the validity of my views of them every goddamn day:

Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) ripped his colleagues during a tour of northeast Oklahoma, calling them “career elitists,” “cowards” and said, “It’s just a good thing I can’t pack a gun on the Senate floor.”
Coburn’s gun-on-the- floor comment comes less than a month after Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.) made a triumphant return to the Capitol and the House floor following her shooting in the head in January outside a Tucson supermarket.
At the time of the shooting, in which six people were killed, there were briefly calls for re-instituting the federal ban on high-capacity ammunition clips and beefing up protection for members of Congress. None of the proposals gained significant traction since.
What is it with middle-aged, right wing males and their infantile fantasies about perpetrating gun violence on those they disagree with? They're like a bunch of 6 year old boys who have become infatuated with Yosemite Sam cartoons and have adopted the rootinest', tootinest', shootinest' animated cowboy freak as a father figure/role model.
They really just need to fucking grow up.
TFG
