Thread: Grayson Wants Critic Jailed for Claiming to be His Constitue

Rep. Alan Grayson, D-Fla., is asking U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder to launch an investigation into a Web site launched by a Republican activist that parodies his own re-election site.



My, my, my. Florida Rep. Alan Grayson wants to see one of his critics go directly to jail -- all over her use of the word "my."

In an effort to raise money against the outspoken freshman Democrat, a Republican activist named Angie Langley has launched "mycongressmanisnuts.com" -- a Web site that parodies Grayson's re-election site, "congressmanwithguts.com."

Langley criticizes Grayson on her Web site for his "inappropriate behavior" and "childish approach" toward governing, and claims he "does not represent the values of central Florida." She said in an interview with Fox News on Tuesday that she launched the site in an effort "to expose him (Grayson) for what he is."

But Grayson is not amused, and he is asking U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder to conduct an investigation into the Web site and Langley, according to a report in the Orlando Sentinel.

In a four-page letter sent to Holder, Grayson accuses Langley of lying to federal elections and requests that she be fined and imprisoned for five years.

Her lie, according to Grayson, is that she claims to be one of his constituents. Langley, Grayson says, is misrepresenting herself by using the term "my" in the Web site's name.

Langley is a resident of Clermont, Fla., which is outside Grayson's 8th District. Oh, my.

"Ms. Langley has deliberately masqueraded as a constituent of mine, in order to try to create the false appearance that she speaks for constituents who don't support me," Grayson writes in his complaint. "[She] has chosen a name for her committee that is utterly tasteless and juvenile."

Langley defended herself Tuesday, saying that she was "born and raised" in Grayson's district and is "embarrassed to be represented" by him in Washington.

"This is the United States of America. A member of Congress represents all of us -- no matter where we live," she said.

Grayson has been high on the headline list for the last few months. He received national attention in September for saying on the House floor during the debate over health care reform that Republicans want sick people to "die quickly." He apologized in October for calling a female adviser to Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke a "whore."

The congressman, who is Jewish, was also reprimanded by the Anti-Defamation League for calling the current health care system a "holocaust in America."

And I suppose "he" didn't misrepresent himself as a representative of the people of his district instead of the coruptocrat that he is....

Well, well.......isn't this kind of tactic just becoming the norm since obama slithered out of Chicago?

Let's see how unamused "Mr" Grayson is when this woman ends up with one hell of a lawsuit because.....irregardless of what obama and the demoncrats may think in their deluded minds......this isn't "The United States of obama".

And in the United States of America, We the People do not persecute people for excercising their rights.

Freedom of speach, jackass..if you can't take the heat, too frickin bad.

Pretty pathetic, Grayson. Can everyone now file against SNL or the Onion for parody? What a waste of time which our taxpayer dollars pay for.
Time to grow up and protect your constituents, rather than worrying about C'ing YA.
