While the congressman has his work cut out for him, one thing does seem to be going his way. Following a storm of protests, the chairman of the TEA Party Patriots canceled the plan to burn Perriello in effigy. Nigel Coleman told a local newspaper that some members were concerned that folks might mistake the Patriots for being a violent group. (Gee, you think?)
For his part, Perriello said he's disappointed by the change of plans. "I've got to say, I'm bummed I won't be burned in effigy," he said, noting the Tea Party event and the tight security on Veterans Day. "Man, two straight weekends in a row I've been denied."
XD XD XD XD
OH MY GOD.
ALSO: "I'm happy as a pig in slop," he said this week. "I certainly like my odds." AHAHA I WANNA SQUEEZE HIM.
Young Tom-Tom TYFYT.
