Alan Grayson, chief asskicker - but is he going to be truly happy being a Congressman?

Would he be better as an Attorney General?

He does have a law degree from Harvard.

He can go after the real criminals.

Or Consumer Protection?

Just a thought here.....

But he just won a new term.

How's about we let him get through that first?

that's too damn bad.

When I had a bad day at the "office," I'd look in the mirror and say "Hey, asshole, you asked for the job, so get back to it."

He would NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS get confirmation through Congress.
If you thought Republicans are waging holy war on "Raising taxes" you can't even imagine what they'd do to a Alan Grayson nomination for Attorney General or any other nomination by the president for anything other than a position in which the Repubs have no choice.

If you're anywhere near Sacramento this week or Half Moon Bay next week through Wednesday, or in Antioch on Thursday next or Oakland on Friday, a beer sounds great!

He'll get no play at all from the administration, let alone a place within it.
