Rep Hank Johnson Defends America's Right to Balloons


Leading the Tea Party’s outrageous assault is the fiendish Marilyn Assenheim writing for the equally fiendish and diabolical Internet rag Political Outcast. In her latest diatribe, Ms. Assenheim levels a withering volley of racist slurs and not-so-subtle mentally handicapped innuendo against our steadfast Comrade, Rep. Johnson.
Her first mindless broadside accuses the representative of stupidity during a 2010 budget debate when he inadvertently stated that the island of Guam, do to its small size, would tip over and sink if the population grew much larger. Why doesn’t Ms. Assenheim include ALL the facts in her malicious scribbling; i.e., everyone in the chamber, including the representative, knew full well that he mis-spoke and meant that the island “might” overturn. But no. That wouldn’t advance her Right Wing agenda.
He was, in short, discussing a bill to continue the federal government’s sales from the National Helium Reserve. You read that correctly — helium. In an America currently besieged on all sides, the Honorable Hank Johnson addressed Congress by stating: “Imagine, Mr. Speaker, a world without balloons.” A world without balloons?
It is a well known and uncontested fact that Mr. Johnson was merely “standing up for some of the most important victims of congressional gridlock: children’s birthday parties and comedians trying to make their voices high-pitched.” Helium, in addition to being a vital part of our national defense, is under assault for draining the Federal Budget through massive subsidies provided to big helium in exchange for Republican votes.
The time for partisan bickering has passed comrades. We must now go on the offensive. The necessity of ending the sequester and restoring our budget to its natural and full operational proportions is palpable. Join with Comrade Representative Johnson and demand that The Tea Party re-inflate the budget and release helium from bondage!


This is RACISM - straight up!
