Rep. Alan Grayson Sends Out Fundraising E-mail Denying He Is a ‘Piece of Nose Slime’

It’s a rare politician that has to deny allegations they are a “piece of nose slime,” but for some reason Congressman Alan Grayson did exactly that. The Florida Democrat responded to Joe the Plumber calling him a “piece of nose slime” over the reported domestic violence incident against Grayson earlier this month.
Joe the Plumber called Grayson a “piece of nose slime” weeks ago, but Grayson brought it up in a fundraising e-mail this week, decrying it as yet another attack on his character. The e-mail goes out of its way to discredit Joe the Plumber rather thoroughly, calling him a “right-wing faker” and a “dim, dopey, dense, doltish and deficient star.”
What does this have to do with fundraising, you ask? Well…
And that’s really the heart of the matter. Not that “Joe” the “Plumber” calls me a “piece of nose slime” and a “dreg of society,” but that upwards of one million Tea Party stooges hear those words, and are poised to try to defeat me in November. Which is why I need your help, to fight back.
Oh, and by the way, the picture at the top there, that is the actual picture Grayson used in the e-mail.
Here’s part of the full e-mail below:
