Take it away...Wanna hear you play...

Perhaps no U.S. senator deserved to lose his reelection bid more than this asshole: Georgia's Saxby Chambliss. And he still may, because he faces a runoff next week.

Saxby Clueless won his Senate seat in 2002 after calling incumbent Max Cleland a communist - even though Cleland lost several limbs in the Vietnam War (while Chambliss dodged the draft).

Now Chambliss has again proven what an asswipe and bully he is. When a journalist asked him a question about his refusal to testify in the case of the Imperial Sugar explosion that killed 13 people, Chambliss angrily scowled to the cameraperson, "You can take it away now." The senator shoved the camera and placed his hand over the lens.

Here's a video of Chambliss's tantrum:



Take yourself away, Saxby.

As for the lawsuit itself, Chambliss has refused to comply with subpoenas - citing "senatorial immunity." However, there's no such thing as "senatorial immunity." None whatsoever. He pulled it out of his ass.

He also verbally harassed a whistleblower in that case.

I guess this is to be expected from Mr. UnfairTax, huh?
