It was the ONLY funny thing about that hearing. I'm glad he's being roasted. He deserves more, but Karma will eventually roast him properly.

I don't think I believe in Karma in quite that way. Karma can also take many generations to work itself out. I want that prick Hawley to suffer where and when I can see it.

I like the way you think!

Even Rep Luria had a tiny crooked smile on her face. It was like slapstick comedy suddenly inserted in the very serious hearing. I loved it.

Suck on that for awhile Josh-ie.

...I love that he's doing a sort of "lope," but is also terrified at the same time that he's trying his pathetic hardest to look like he's just being "efficient." pathetic motherfucker who now has THIS to overcome. I think it was my happiest moment last night.

“Running away bravely” came to mind last night…

Nothing brave about his repulsive existence!

True. I just couldn’t resist a Monty Python reference.

I mean, it's hard to make Brave, Brave Sir Marco (Rubio) look like a profile in courage, but Hawley managed to pull it off. Full credit to him for his perfectly executed "bravely running away."

I just declared him The Minister of Silly Walks.

What an asshole.

My fave is Bee Gees “Stayin’ Alive”! What a wimp. I can feel you writing today TC!

I did also really like "Stayin' Alive." the irony is exquisite, especially when you show the video right alongside the raised fist (which he did when he knew it was "safe").

This is so hilarious. Pink Floyd’s “Run Like Hell” and The Beatles “Run For Your Life (little girl)” might be enjoyable.

I hope these clips are played every single day during the election cycle if he runs for re-election. There should be a channel running these clips 24/7. He’s an entitled opportunist jerk who could not care less about Missouri or the country.

Running like a little kid

I respectfully disagree a bit. little kids run like crazy when they're scared. he was running like a high school kid who's terrified of what's behind him but just about as terrified that he's being seen by all the cool kids because he knows that if they see him being that scared, he's fucked as far as any parties or dances go. I'm not even mentioning the jokes in the yearbook, which will exist until the end of time.

I enjoyed the hell out of those clips. I’d include The Beach Boys “run, run, run ‘til your daddy takes the t-bird away”, Del Shannon’s “run, run, run, run, runaway” or repeating the line from Tiger Rag “Hold that tiger, hold that tiger”

I vote "Chariots of Fire," since it's already a very shoddy (if catchy) piece of work. I thought for a second about my ringtone ("Like a Rolling Stone"), but that's completely sacrilegious.
