U.S. Rep Lynn Westmoreland knows Scooby Doo
January 28, 2009 at 9:18 pm by Thomas Wheatley in NewsRepublican Rep. Lynn “Uppity” Westmoreland of Newnan is standing in a nearly empty U.S. House and addressing his fellow lawmakers as I write this. About 12 guys — two of whom I think are really just cardboard cutouts — have stuck around to listen to each other talk about President Barack Obama’s stimulus plan. (The House passed a bill 244-188 earlier today.)
Westmoreland kicks off his speech with:
“When I watch Scooby-Doo with my grandchildren and he runs into some unexpected trouble, he says ‘ruh roh.’ Well, there’s been some ‘ruh roh’s’ lately.”
He goes on to say “ruh roh” about five more times. This isn’t politics, this is poetry, brah.
