    It makes me so mad that this asshole is allowed to pretend she didn’t give the answers he was fishing for. She couldn’t have been any more of a prop for his grandstanding. He might as well have questioned a mannequin

      It was fucking ridiculous.

      “Do you support Hamas?”
      “No. I do not support Hamas”
      “You haven’t told me if you don’t support Hamas.”
      “I did tell you. I do not support Hamas.”
      “Let the record show that she supports Hamas.”

    Fucking racist cunt. Good job Louisiana. The next time New Orleans is destroyed, we shouldn’t bother giving a shit since they continually elect this shithead.

      To be fair to New Orleans, they’re not all that responsible for this guy being elected.

        So you choose to live in a place prone to disaster and which is a state largely run by those you wouldn’t elect. Genius!

          Or, hear me out, they were born in a place without their consent, raised in that place as a minor without their consent, and now are not financially or physically capable of leaving that place on their own.

            They are right, I moved here and I have means to leave so it is a fair criticism. I fled Texas and my ex wife to be by family. First time I have been close to them in 15 years. But I agree. I don’t want to be in the south. I hate the heat and the politics and the fact that Poseidon keeps trying to reclaim the city. But my sister won’t leave, so for now I am helping her out.

            Now all my low income brothers and sisters here? They have no fucking choice.

          You’re raging against random people for the crime of being from somewhere. That’s pretty messed up.

      New Orleans is an incredible place full of incredible people. Try directing your justified anger at the villains.

      And probably the same methods where you answer their question and they keep torturing you and telling you to answer their question.

        Well, there was no physical torture in that Congressional hearing, but that might only have been because of the cameras.

    Foghorn Hatehorn, the shame of Louisiana, at it again.

    Few people in the world are stupider or more hateful than Senator John “the lesser” Kennedy.

      This guy is s total fake. The corn pome accent and the conservative outrage. He was a Democrat until it was obvious he’d never win in Louisiana so he switched.
