O'Rourke: Get the man a bongo drum, they've found their spokesman!

Grayson: If I…

O'Rourke: Get your shoes off, get a bongo drum, forget where to go to the bathroom and it's yours.

Grayson: If I am the spokesman for all the people who think we should not have twenty four million people in this country who can't find a full time job. That we should not have fifty million people who can't see a doctor when they're sick. That we shouldn't have forty seven million people of this country who need government help to feed themselves. And we shouldn't have fifteen million families who owe more on their mortgage than the value of home, OK, I'll be that spokesman..

1. What a drunken old fool O'Rourke looked like. nt

5. He really did look like a drunk. I watched it on tape and he hid his face several times

I wasn't sure that he was going to be able to finish the sentence that he had started let alone keep his point straight. I used to love PJ - Parliament of WHores, Holidays in Hell - but now he just looks sad.

2. Listen to the genuine feeling in Alan's statements.

Alan Grayson is not a phony. I am so glad he was on Bill Maher's show. I didn't see it. Thank you for the post and link, Underpants. :)

P.J. O'Rourke has become an oinking PIG.

3. Thanks for the transcript of Grayson

I saw it happening. But glad to have his words to refer to.

4. That's all an asshole like O'Rourke has, personal insults.

He knows he can't win a legitimate debate about OWS so he resorts to hippie punching. Pathetic.

6. Grayson didn't say anything

I don't see the big deal. He just said a bunch of empty platitudes while O'Rourke made a couple lame jokes.

To "school" someone, you usually need some sort of substance to your message. Grayson didn't say anything.

7. Grayson is great

Theres just no two ways about that.
This man is a national treasure. He speaks loud and clear and is fearless. I love him as my spokesman
