Stay classy, Jim DeMint:

“The stimulus bill that is being championed by President Obama…is not a stimulus, ladies and gentlemen; it is a mugging.”

I wonder what not at all racially-charged policy analogies he’ll come up with next. I’m guessing he’ll call any future stimulus bill a “re-up” and airstrikes in Pakistan “fly-by shootings”.
