Preparing for speaker, he said, was "intense beyond all belief. I didn't mind lending myself to that intensity when my heart was in it and my spirit was up. But I knew that this was going to continue and that as long as I was there, Larry Flynt was going to be there. And on top of that, I knew that with a 5-vote margin and 18 guys disconcerted about my conduct, I was facing an impossible situation. The confluence of those conditions just made my role impossible."
He added: "I had no defense. So I had to accept reality. Was it better to cut my losses and set an example for a president I thought should have followed my advice?
Cut the crap, Livingston! You resigned not when they gave you a standing ovulation... er... I mean ovation, but only when you realized that some 18 fellows in your own party would vote against you on the House floor!
The people realize that the rascal resigned because he is smart enough to figure out that 18 is greater than 5! So, just stop crapping around, Livingston!
"I figured it was too late to help me, but I hoped that by calling attention to it, it might help them -- let the world see this bottom-feeder for what he is," he said of Flynt.
Oh, cut the diarrhea, Livingston! Yes, he is a bottom-feeder. But he ate you for lunch! So, the question is -- what the F*&^ were you doing at the bottom????
And oh, maybe you are right about one thing, Livingston! The "cut the losses" part. Maybe Flynt threatened you with a lot more than just exposing your adulterous affairs with dozens of women...
Btw, Livingston, do you have a farm with all of 'em animals? Just asking, you know! ;-) |
