Is Thomas Massie a Racist Sociopath?
The evidence is hard to deny.
Down with Tyranny:
Some Republicans just want to say NO to everything... even when there's no reason to. Many of them are dangerous anti-government nihilists. Several have unresolved struggles with heavy drugs like Paul Broun (GA) and domestic terrorism suspect Steve Stockman (TX).
Tuesday the House, just back from a long summer vacation, took up Bob Menendez's bill-- which was cosponsored by Bob Corker (R-TN), Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Tom Udall (D-NM) and passed the Senate without controversy and without even obstructionists like Cruz, Lee, Sessions and the nuts in that chamber objecting-- to tidy up and renew the U.S. participation in the OAS, the Organization of American States. The bill simply states that "it is U.S. policy to: (1) promote democracy, the rule of law, and human rights in the Western Hemisphere; and (2) support the practices and principles expressed in the Charter of the Organization of American States, the American Declaration on the Rights and Duties of Man, the Inter-American Democratic Charter, and other fundamental instruments of democracy [and] expresses the sense of Congress that the Organization of American States (OAS) should be the primary multi-lateral diplomatic entity for regional dispute resolution and promotion of democratic governance."
Cantor took one look at it and figured the House could just suspend the rules and pass it without any objections. In this House? With flaming, raving racists like Gohmert? There were no objections from the Democrats. All 181 in attendance voted YES. And so did 202 Republicans. But two dozen nuts-- predominantly the lunatic fringe-- voted NO. Even Bachmann and Steve King voted for this. Below were the NO votes. If you see your congressman's name on this list, there's a good chance you're being represented in Washington by a sociopath:
