Think Progress
Yesterday at the House Armed Services Committee hearing on veterans care, Rep. Phil Gingrey (R-GA) attempted to stand out from the rest of Congress and argue that the conditions in Building 18 weren't that bad. Instead of criticizing the cockroach infestation, he said, "I was glad to know that those cockroaches were belly up. It suggested to me that at least someone was spraying for them."
He also tried to blame the soldiers for the conditions, stating, "And, of course, if you leave food around in a motel room or a dorm room at a college, you're going to get some mice show up at some point in time."
