"Breaking news: Congressman Massie has tested positive...

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Omaha Steve (a host of the Democratic Primaries forum).

... for being an asshole. He must be quarantined to prevent the spread of his massive stupidity.”

— Former Secretary of State John Kerry in response to Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) stalling House approval of the $2.2 trillion economic relief package.

Kerry was always kinda blunt and to the the point.

Breaking news: Congressman Massie has tested positive for being an asshole. He must be quarantined to prevent the spread of his massive stupidity. He's given new meaning to the term #Masshole. (Finally, something the president and I can agree on!)

Kerry never was much of a firebrand.

I remember once when he stopped by Flag one night and gave a campaign speech during the summer of 2004 when he was running against Dubya. I spent most of the time chatting with a young Secret Service agent instead of listening to what he was saying. If Kerry had been a little more like his recent Tweet he probably woulda had a lot more folks listening a lot more attentively.

Anyway, better late than never!
