Irony isn't the Word

Hypocrisy, is.

Yesterday, Rep. Steve King (R-IA) attacked the nine “liberal Democrat” “naysayers” who voted against his resolution on the “importance of Christmas and the Christian faith.” Today, Rep. Jim McDermott (D-WA) responded, explaining his vote:

"While the Republicans are passing a resolution celebrating Christmas, the president was vetoing health care for children. There’s a little bit of irony going on around here."

King was one of the lawmakers who voted against expanding SCHIP.


I had the honor of voting for Jim McDermott many years ago.

It's good to see he's still slugging away.
