no mirror, Steve?


Republican Representative from Iowa, Steve King, quoted on the topic of Abu Musab al Zarqawi's recent death during the bombing of his safe house, said, "there probably are not 72 virgins in the hell he’s at. And if there are, they probably all look like Helen Thomas.”

Helen, of course, is the famous White House correspondent who has been a thorn in pasty Republican asses for many years.

Here is the official photograph of Steve King. Nice combover, Steve. Probably not a good idea to slam other people for their appearance, especially those who are half again your age, and possess twice your mental acuity and ten times your experience.

What hope is there for peace if "leaders" such as this are not capable of civil discourse?

Steve King is a horrible congressman and an embarrasment to all of us who live in his district.

Some of the folks in Iowa's 5th District have put together a website to expose the terrible things that Steve King says and does in our name.

Check it out:
