Pretty damn low, I guess (see post below)

Republican Representative Barbara Cubin (R-Wyoming) threatened to slap her libertarian challenger after a debate. That candidate, Thomas Rankin, has multiple sclerosis and uses a wheelchair. "My aide and I were packing up to leave the debate, and Barbara walked over to me and said, 'If you weren't sitting in that chair, I'd slap you across the face.' That's quote-unquote," Rankin said.

They've almost hit the "bash the victims of devastating neurological diseases" trifecta.

Maybe some other 'thug can step up and find someone with ALS or Alzheimer's to hammer, so they can complete the sweep.

What they are doing to Harold Ford this week is really special, too. "Look! That uppity one likes WHITE LADIES!"

They make me physically sick, all of them.

Remember who started this?

Remember Bush and the reporter wearing sunglasses because he's blind?

TRIFECTA!
