Rat Boy in Trouble

Politiho

Henry Waxman hasn’t faced a tough campaign since Lyndon B. Johnson was president and the Beatles topped the Billboard charts.

Henry Waxman is shown in 2012 and 1981. | AP PhotosThis year, the powerful Los Angeles congressman believes, could be different.

Running in a drastically redrawn district against a free-spending self-funder looking to tap into anti-incumbent sentiment, Waxman is sounding the alarm: He isn’t saying outright he’s in trouble but is warning supporters he needs their help for the most serious race of his nearly four-decade congressional career. And after years of barely having to lift a finger in his races, the Democrat says he has begun putting the pieces in place to wage a hard-fought campaign.

Since he won his seat in 1974, Waxman has never received less than 61 percent of the vote — in fact, his friends say, the last time he was seriously contested was in 1968, when he was elected to the California Assembly. Through the years, Waxman has used his deep well of campaign cash almost exclusively to aid fellow Democrats

I’m sure he has a boatload stashed in those hideous nostrils.

    Wow, there really are that many brain-dead dipshits?

    I guess he is from Cali.

    Waxrat – “never received less than 61% of the vote…”

    …and we wonder why California is going tits up?

    His daughter went to my high school in Bethesda MD in the late 70s. Clueless….

    I’d be perfectly pleased to see that pig-snouted Commie bastard bite the big political burrito this time out…Marxists are bad enough, but sleazy, stupid Marxists are the worst of all!

    He’s:
    Pro abortion
    Pro taxes
    Pro spending
    and above all,
    Proboscis

    He must have really big fingers because his nostrils have grown considerably bigger over the years. He really does look like rat boy from The Island of Dr. Moreau.

    He’s been picking too hard and too deep, his nostril angle has increased toward the vertical by several degrees, it seems.

    Maybe it’s from all the rainwater he catches in them while sleeping..?

    I’ve always known what an ass bite his guy was. But honestly, I thought he was from the east coast, not Cali. Cali. should be split at King City. Northern Cali. even with the bay area would go big time conservative.

    I find most of the above comments juvenile. C’mon guys, this man has to go. Hopefully the tea party can get him out. He is part of the problem in Washington.

    The RatMan’s going nowhere.

    He’s got a position for life.

    That’s how it works in Communist countries.

    I’d love to see this prog defeated if only to show that California isn’t passed the point of no return even though all indications show they are.
