Reply #60: I'll say something that's unpopular.

[Meldread]

I haven't posted anything about Representative Alan Grayson on DU. I know how a lot of people feel about him... but I take Grayson as seriously as I take a clown. In my eyes, he's nothing but an egotistical fame seeker. He saw what "You Lie!" got whats-his-face Republican from SC during the President's speech to the joint session, and then followed up with "You die!"

I don't know what Grayson really believes, but it seems to me that he attempts to be more and more outrageous. I don't take him seriously at all. Yet, I know many people here like him for the things he says... but to me it comes off as smarmy and manipulative. I don't even think he fully believes what he says; so it isn't like Republican's saying or doing outrageous things... which is the result of them being certifiable nutjobs. Grayson just appears like an opportunist.
