Is Bob Etheridge insane?

This one is named Bob Etheridge.

He happens to be a Democratic Congressman from North Carolina.

He’s pretty representative of the caliber of the people who hold these positions at the federal, state, and local levels.

Just lacks a little of the polish some of the others manage to maintain (though Flip-style video cameras are surely going to be exposing more episodes like this in the months and years to come.)
