Republicans: Grow Up, But If You Can't Do That, Learn How To Throw A Decent Punch

Aside from the intrinsic stupidity of this, it's quite sad that such a decaying old man even tried to sucker-punch another old man in the Alabama Senate. But he didn't even do a halfway decent job. Even with a surprise blow, he connected somewhere around the upper neck, and without much effect. Hey, macho right-wingers: If you fancy yourselves badasses, at least get into shape and try to do it right! And, it might be more honorable to actually challenge your adversary to a refereed session in the nearest gym. But, y'all don't seem to have that much class.
Just for the record, that was state Sen. Charles Bishop, a Republican, trying to punch out Sen. Lowell Barron, a Democrat. Barron refused to comment and went into a closed-door meeting with other Democrats. Sen. Vivian Figures went into the meeting carrying first aid supplies, but she said he was not hurt.
