The Tea Party thugs obviously haven't learned yet that their escapades aren't getting the results they wanted. But lawmakers are getting frustrated at the BTPers' attempts to derail important health care reforms.
Last month, Rep. Barney Frank (D-Massachusetts) was so tired of the BTPers disrupting his town halls that he told one of them, "Trying to have a conversation with you would be like arguing with a dining room table."
Now, in another classic moment, Rep. Pete Stark (D-California) told off a disruptor at one of his town halls.
The heckler launched a tirade about what he claimed would be the eeeeevils of a public health care system. He concluded this harangue by telling Stark not to "pee on my leg and tell me it's raining" (a line ripped off from Judge Judy).
Stark replied, "Well, I wouldn't dignify you by peeing on your leg. It wouldn't be worth wasting the urine."
Pete Stark's gotcha there, Freeper guy!
Everybody knows that if a dissident had heckled Bush or Cheney the way the LOSEianne crowd treats Democratic officials, there'd be arrests. So the heckler in this story actually got off easy - but still endured loads of humiliation to follow him back to whichever exurb he flew in from.
