Stark "apologizes," seeks insignificance
2007-10-23
Rep. Fortney Hillman Stark Jr. has apologized for his obnoxious comment about President Bush last week, which we noted Friday (with a follow-up yesterday). Breitbart.tv has the video, which includes one Bartlett-worthy quote:

"I hope that with this apology I will become as insignificant as I should be."
At last! He says something we can all agree with.
We hope so too, but just to be sure, it might help if he were to resign, move out of state, and change his name.
Keep on it, Fortney, and never stop striving for insignificance. You can never be too insignificant.

There, there, Darth. From your lips to the gods. You mind if we work on one of our new prototypes?

#6  Apology not accepted, return to obscurity granted.

#5  As a vet, I don't accept his apology. It is nothing more than political bullshit to try to cover his sorry ass. He doesn't respect us, he doesn't respect his country's effort in a time of war and he doesn't support his country.

Fuck him and I hope he gets run over by a cement mixer.

#4  Oh, one other thing about Stark. Go to his congressional website and hit the "Kids" link. There you will read and see his attitude toward military recruitment. He gives you a form you can fill out to "opt-out" from your high school giving the recruiters your name, address and phone number as provided for in the No Child Left Behind legislation. What a dirt-bag.

#3  He is probably the most unliked Democrat among the Democrats. That gives you some idea of what a piece of maggot larvae he really is.

#2  He definitely seems to do a lot of overcompensating.

During some committee meeting or other, he was reported as telling a fellow Congressman to "Make me. Do you think you can come over here and make me 'pipe down'?"

#1  I'd make my parents apologize for giving me the faggy name "Fortney".
Wonder if he got his ass kicked regularly back in high school?
