Video: Rep. Weiner, Rep. King Shout It Out On Fox News

2010_07_kingweiner.jpg New York House members Rep. Anthony Weiner (D) and Rep. Peter King (R) took their fighting over how the 9/11 Health and Compensation bill failed during yesterday's House vote to Fox News. And basically it's a lot of finger pointing and raised voices, so set the volume a little lower than you usually have it. This might just best King's thoughts on Michael Jackson, the "pedophile" whose death was taking attention away from cops, teachers and firefighters! Hell, even Fox News's Bill Hemmer had to say, "Gentlemen, this may be why Congress today has an 11 percent approval rating by the American public."

After the jump, King's and Weiner's statements during the vote last night:

    As much as I disagree w/ Rep. Weiner on the Palestine issue, I have to say: FINALLY a Democrat w/ some balls to stand up and tell these Republican assholes to SIT THE FUCK DOWN, SHUT THE FUCK UP, AND LISTEN TO WHAT I HAVE TO SAY!

    Mr. Obama, you need to call Mr. Wiener and maybe take some advice.

  • wow 14th street

    I wish this little rat had screamed for the tv cameras

    like this for his "I will not stop till we get a public

    option for health care" but that was 7 months ago and who

    remembers that the rat sold out as did Obama to the big Insurance guys. This little outburst was a no brainer and

    a PR cheap shot planned tirade.

    We need to do better than this in Washington DC.

    Three cheers for Mr Weiner and I deficate on the representation from the party of Idiots, the clowns of Congress the republicans the DESTROYERS of American Values and it Open society. The Idiots Anti American Racist Naszi of Faux Noise can say what they want but it is very clear they are out and out Racist Nazis.

    Yeah the votes coming but good bad indifferent or otherwise it will be a Democratic Vote just because I can not stand Ignorance and when you are GUILTY of wrong doing you are the first to misdirect and LIE watch the ASSHOLE King then check this Low Lifes record DUH!

  • potsmoker

    ALL politicians are rhetoric spouting liars, crooks and thieves.

    we are no better than nazi germany, because semiliterate mildly intelligent people with evil intentions along with collusion from the media have turned the semi retarded brainwashed masses into a collective intelligence equal to a dog poop ready to believe anything and do anything.

    these debates are getting old, just bring in the FEMA slavery & killing camps, jail the intellligstas, shut down the internet, eliminate privacy in the name of getting da terraurusts, open the reeducation centers for liberals and have the helmeted stormtroopers patrol our streets and get it over with already.

  • robingee

    dude you are sooo high

  • Spongeworthy

    Weiner was awesome. But where was Vince McMahon?

  • John L

    Wow, I'm really impressed with Weiner.

    I've always said that the Democrats needed a loud mouth to call the Republicans out on all their bullshit and finally Weiner stepped up to the plate.

    I might need to make a contribution to his campaign.

  • bonu$baby

    First he gets married, now some macho shoving in the Congress. Cmon Tony, no one is buying your charade.

  • In spite of my propensity to dislike Weiner, in essence he's still a mensch.

    Who do you like better, Weiner or Boehner?

    Me, I prefer Jen Chung.

  • John Clavis

    If Republicans weren't relentlessly partisan and dishonest in their rhetoric, we could have real political debates in this country. Then again, how would an informed and educated electorate serve the needs of the richest 1%?

  • ides_of_march

    Are you serious? You don't think the democrats aren't relentlessly partisan? Perhaps in the bizarro world you apparently inhabit. How dare the opposition party oppose the other side! I don't see a lot of people tackling the substance of what republicans have to say, just outrage that they have the audacity to contradict a democrat! So much for tolerance.

  • One side of the argument wants to help the actual people actually effected by the actual 911. The other side wants to score points with the intolerant portions of middle America. Yeah, Team Weiner.

  • nik13

    C'mon Mordek. Don't hold back. Tell us how you really feel about Wiener shtick. What about those add-ons to the bill? What's in it for the illegals?

  • ganghiscon

    Regardless of how anyone feels about Weiner, Peter King is one of the biggest douchebags in NY politics.

  • farleft

    Weiner is still a complete moron. Voted for the war in Iraq and is an ardent supporter of Israeli crimes against the Palestinians. Slightly left of right, but not even close to center.

  • FelixtheCat & Christine Quinn'

    Seriously these 2 are weiners.

  • Dolomite

    That's actually how they order sandwiches, too.
