It starts almost immediately, before MSNBC's Joy Reid can even formulate a question for Rep. Alan Grayson, who went nuts on this interview. It's almost too much to bear. It's hard to watch. And it's all because she asked him about a time earlier this week when he was a total jackass in a meeting with Harry Reid. Seriously.

He was a jackass about being a jackass. And dishonest to boot. Left-wing writer Tommy Christopher explains at Mediaite:

One thing is for sure, though, and that is that he’s not just being a mansplaining jerk here, he’s being dishonest. When the New York Times contacted him about the brochure, he made no objections to its authenticity, only to whether it had ever been circulated, and his repeated assertions about the metadata are just wrong. The document’s metadata would not prove when the brochure was produced and printed, but only when the New York Times scanned it and uploaded it. Grayson also said the brochure was not from the OCE report, but a portion of it, the portion with Grayson’s name and face on it, actually were reproduced in that report.

Why lie about these things, and be such a jerk about it? Probably because even if Grayson manages to get clear of these complaints, the revelations in the reports are embarrassing.

He's wrong, he knows he's wrong, and he's a total jerk about it. Not to mention crazy. He's essentially accusing people of forging documents to take him out. 

People voted for this guy. In fact, people who probably watch Joy Reid religiously voted for this guy. 

The Democrats have more than their fair share of crazy. Their ranks are filled with liars, jerks, and total nutters. But it's only ever Republicans who get called out for their bad apples. That's the MSM for you. And Reid, who bore the Grayson assault, is one of the people covering for the Dems and attacking Repubs over it.

It's all just so ridiculous.
