Most Disgusting Republican

I am having a hard time deciding who to nominate for most disgusting Republican of the past week. Should it be Senator McCain and Senator Graham for their senseless and vicious attacks on Ambassador Susan Rice? Or the mendacious governor of Michigan, Rick Snyder? Or Grover Norquist?

I am tending toward Norquist. His latest spewing out of hatred toward Barack Obama took the form of a declaration that the President should be kept on a "short lease." As Lawrence O'Donnell points out, you have to read those words against the backdrop of Norquist's past statements. In which case it is difficult if not impossible to see the statement as referring to either a dog or a slave.

How in God's name have so many Congressional Republicans spent years kowtowing to this guy?
