Behold, a complete fucking retard in public office. Is it any wonder that he was elected by the fine folks from the midwest?

It seems that Congressman Bob Ney (R - Ohio) -- a self-loathing product of French ancestry -- has jumped on the latest cause celebre by forcing the Congress cafeterias to change their menus from "french fries" to "freedom fries." Ney admitted to the New York Times (registration required, but it's free) that it's a symbolic gesture -- what he seems to fail to understand is that it also makes our elected officials look even more out of touch with reality than they already are.

This little story made me spit out a mouthful of freedom-roast coffee I'd just brewed. Good thing I wasn't eating freedom toast. I might have stained the freedom maid outfit I was wearing.
