CRAZY, RACIST CORPORATE WHORE IN WYOMING THREATENS TO BEAT UP DISABLED, WHEELCHAIR BOUND OPPONENT: MEET BABSY CUBIN

Late last June we took a look at Wyoming's one member of the House, a crackpot right wing imbecile name Barbara Cubin, best known-- until now-- for handing out penis shaped cookies to other Republican legislators and for her vicious racism. Considered one of the most biizarre and unstable and most extremist members of the kooky Republican majority, Cubin's seat is thought to be in jeopardy for a myriad of reasons, not the least of which is the quality of her Democratic opponent, Gary Trauner.

But today's story about bat-shit crazy Cubin doesn't really directly involve her contest with Trauner. Today's Casper Star Tribune has a headline about the violent and deranged Cubin threatening to slap her challenger during a debate. When I read it I scratched my head thinking Trauner could probably knock the ho out with both hands tied behind his back and bullies like Cubin usually go after weaker prey. And, lo and behold... it wasn't Trauner at all she was threatening. "Immediately after the lights and cameras shut down, incumbent Republican U.S. Rep. Barbara Cubin walked to Libertarian candidate Thomas Rankin, who had criticized her for receiving contributions from former House Speaker Tom Delay, R-Texas. 'If you weren't sitting in that chair, I'd slap you across the face,' Cubin told Rankin, he said Monday... The Cubin campaign did not deny the exchange on Monday."

No they didn't deny it, since there were witnesses. Instead they made excuses for the threat. According to some right wing hack she has working for her, "He misrepresented her and insulted her integrity during the debate." Insulted her? How? By telling the truth? Barbara Cubin is one of the worst and most outrageous whores in the entire Congress, taking large sums of money from any corporate interest eager for an easy vote.

Rankin, a 7 year military vet, is disabled with multiple sclerosis and uses an electric wheel chair. Barbara Cubin is a real asshole.


UPDATE: CUBIN ISN'T THE ONLY RIGHT WING KOOK WHO DOESN'T REACT WELL WHEN REMINDED OF A DISGRACEFUL RECORD-- HOLY JOE LIEBERMAN EXPLODES

Jane is reporting that after tonight's debate between Ned and Lieberman, Holy Joe walked up to Ned and started cursing him. Lieberman feels entitled to "his" Senate seat and entitled to keep his awful record private from Connecticut voters. Lieberman has lost his mind.


TUESDAY MORNING UPDATE: BABSY CUBIN HAS DISGRACED WYOMING AND CONGRESS. SHE NEEDS TO RESIGN

Today's Jackson Hole Daily digs down into this disgraceful incident and ends it like this:

Rankin said he wanted Cubin to resign over the incident.

"The best response Barbara Cubin could give would be a resignation," he said. "Nothing less than that would satisfy me.

"She is not the type of person Wyoming residents want representing them," he said.
