GOP Congressman Calls Conservatives 'Assholes'

It was an obvious attempt by Congressman Lynn Westmoreland (R-GA) to defend John Boehner's indefesible and Stalinist purge of conservatives in Congress, but in attempting to bolster the false arguement that these conservatives were not purged for their conservative principles, Westmoreland essentially refuted his own argument. Specifically, Westmoreland said: "I guess you could say it was an asshole factor."

And just what is the "asshole factor?" Westmoreland, who later apologized for the profanity, explained: “Now I wasn’t calling any member in particular an asshole, I was just trying to describe an environment where some people that you’re trying to work with, they just don’t want to work within the system.”
