Congressman to Ric Flair: "Woooo!"

31. This just proves again that women do not belong in Congress. She's honoring this boob when our guys are fighting and dying every day just so she can get up and say crap like that. He's known for wining his so called "fights" by using "illegal" moves. Yeah, thats a real man. I'm saddened that people still think this stuff is real. However, its even more disturbing that this woman would use time that the people of her state are paying her for to say all that drivel. A total embarassment. Our entire Congress needs an enema.

32. Wrestling is fake? Hell, it's more genuine than any politician.

33. All you people putting down Ric Flair. How stupid. This man put his body on the line for decades and entertained millions upon millions of people. Yes, wrestling is predetermined but so are movies and movie stars get honored. Ric Flair will always be the man and I challenge any of you snobby idiots to get into the ring with him NOW at his age and beat him. You won't because he also knows how to "really wrestle" . Long live Ric Flair and his legacy!

36. Very good point, Real Ramone. Actors and politicians (actually, they're the same thing) are so entrenched in their respective fantasy lands that they have become detached from reality.

37. lovelyliz... Google search Ric Flair, then do me a favor and realize that your comment is not only laughable, but pretty idiotic. Try to be a little more informed and educated about who you're so quick to pull the tiresome steroid card on.

38. Out of all the issues of the day like the war in Iraq high gas prices, job loss and home foreclosures, Rep. Sue Myrick takes time out to praise a wrestler and in particular one
of her own party, this is the height of being out of touch with the American people.
If some Dem took time out in company time to praise George Clooney, the Reps would
have none of it and neither would the media. Get with the program Rep. Myrick.

LOL. What an uneducated fool! Do you know how old Ric Flair is? Do you know what he looks like? This man is a legend and it has nothing to with steroids. What a tool.

43. "Our congress~Are they working to fix our economy?Are they trying to assure quality health care for all Americans? Are they atempting to repair any of the damage that the Bush adminastration has inflicked on America and the world?NOOOOO... This witch should be run out of congress and never allowed to hold a public office again.(and that is the clean version of what I really feel.) OH and by the way~HILLARY can fix whats broken in America."

Inflicked?atempting? adminastration? I wonder if Hillary can fix your poor spelling? It's called spell check, try using it before you comment.

45. I can't believe she is bestowing any sort of honor on this man. He's been arrested for assault and battery for road rage in NC and has gotten in trouble for beating his 3rd wife. Real stand-up guy. Way to go!
