    How big was the raise?

    Reichart’s brain was eaten by Senator Mitch McChinless who looks like one of the zombies from “Night of the Living Dead”.

    The injury must be worse than first thought. Reichart is still claiming to be the guy who caught the Green River killer.

    Goldy–
    Since you Progressive geeks are losing in the top 10 real issues important to Americans, I guess taking your beating like a real man or throwing shitbombs like a low-life are your only 2 options.
    Predictable choice by you.

    When has Reichert ever run on anything other than his gravitas as former sheriff and his silvery hairdo? His performance in debates has never been stellar. If he did accept the debate challenge, how would you detect any effects of the brain injury?

    YellowPup @5,

    That depends on the extent of the injury.

    “Reichert says he took medication for two months after the surgery to help make sure the bleeding didn’t start again. He said he isn’t currently taking any medication related to the brain injury.”

    So what medication is he taking and for what reason?

    You libs got NUTHIN’. Reichert’s opponent avoids any talk about your failed stimulus bill and your socialzied health care debacle. Instead, DelBenzene tools like Goldy concoct slimy lies and hope for some relevance in the world of political talking heads.

    You’re pathetic.

    Got nothing pithy to say. Hell, I didn’t even know you’d started writing on Slog – came here for news, and found some. But I suspect (if you hadn’t already figured that out) this is why Politico made that erroneous assumption, note the e-mail address:

    I’m not sure which is my favorite part of the Politico story – this:

    blockquote
    “He had been asked about it by people out in the state, and he just wanted to make sure that Congressman Reichert knew that’s what he was telling people if anybody asked: ‘[Reichert]’s the same person he’s always been,’” Inslee spokesman Robert Kellar said.

    which can be read either as Jay Inslee’s endorsement of Reichert’s health or his suggestion that Reichert’s always been brain-damaged; or this:

    Completely bogus, Reichert says. “This is so offensive to me,” he said in a wide-ranging, half-hour interview, during which he outlined a childhood marked by domestic violence, his time serving in the Air Force, a series of major surgeries to repair his back after he was hit by a car when he was a police officer, and two knee surgeries.

    in which Sheriff Dave appears to believe that offering up 30 minutes of rambling non-sequiturs somehow disproves rumors of brain damage.

    The only thing the passages really prove, of course, is that Politico badly needs a better editor.

    livonius, maybe if Goldie had a right wing website, the Koch (Cock) Brothers would pay for his expenses. Them billionaires gotta get their “don’t tax me” message out any way they can.

    # 12: I agree, the comment that “Reichart’s the same as he has always been” is damnation by faint praise.

    @8

    Did your parents have any children that lived?
    Did you get that opinion free from the Tea Party or did you pay ‘Goldline’ Glenn Beck for it?

    I’m sure there exist people more clueless than you but, for the life of me, I can’t think of any.

    Hold it! You’re correct! The stimulus DID fail! According to the Republican Party it was supposed to be a big flop, adding to the deficit without creating any jobs, be a burden to the states and send millions of people into the poorhouse.

    Instead it did the exact opposite. Big FAIL!

    Goon.
