This guy is an elected  Republican Congressman from the 6th district.  He wants people to spy on people who are using any form of food stamps.  Does this sound familiar, spy on your neighbor turn them in if they are doing or saying anything that doesn't comport to the party line?  Grothman has a history of saying some of the most stupid things even before he was elected to congress.  He used to be Republican state senator who said many stupid and bigoted things.  If you protest against the Republicans in any form you are
“a bunch of slobs”
or when he said days off from work are
“a little ridiculous”
He said that Planned Parenthood has a pattern of
“not liking people who are not white.”
He also said that the federal and Wisconsin governments are
“working to encourage single motherhood and discouraging children in two-parent families.”
that giving benefits to single parents is
“in essence a bribe not to work that hard or a bribe not to marry somebody with a full-time job.”
I know this guy is a whack job, and so does everyone else. A Republican operative tweeted when he won his primary,
“Gee, so glad we nominated the guy w/a reputation of being a misogynist.”
So the real question is what's in the water that makes the people of Wisconsin keep electing these kind of goof-balls?  Is it that no one actually pays any attention to whom they are voting for, or are the people so brainwashed in their hatred for President Obama that they will vote for anyone that is against him? The district has been dominated by Republicans for most of Wisconsin's history, but does that mean that the people can't see past that. The district is predominately white, and white collar, does that mean these people are actually living in a bubble and don't see what is happening in the real world? Is the local media complicit, do they report the shortcomings of these people, or like the Minneapolis TV station in the last election decided not to show certain campaign commercials by the Democratic candidate because they decided arbitrarily that the ads were not factual?
Whatever it is it's a disgrace to Wisconsin that these fools are representing us.
