It's a good thing he didn't just come out and call us trailer trash. I'd have to don my Oshkoshs and BB silkies and git up there to set him straight. Actually, my family was as happy as it could be where two sets of grandparents showed up regularly and my five older sisters had to put up with cutie-pie me. Fortunately I didn't have to share everything with my sisters. Maybe that's unfortunate to Steny, but I drew the line at hand-me-down Capri pants and training bras.
Hoyer: Tea Party People Come From Unhappy Families
There are a whole lot of people in the Tea Party that I see in these polls who don’t want any compromise. My presumption is they have unhappy families. All of you have been in families: single-parent, two-parents, whatever. Multiple parent and a stepfather. The fact is life is about trying to reach accommodation with one another so we can move forward. That is certainly what democracy is about. So if we are going to move forward compromise is necessary.
Fortunately for our Republic compromise is mitigated by a majority. Unfortunately, my family was never even remotely considered a democracy. Especially by Dad. Hoyer is full of hooey. And his Mom wore combat boots.
