Jim Bunning: Ty Cobb's favorite senator

Jim Bunning, the Hall of Fame pitcher and batshit insane Republican senator from Kentucky, is at it again:

On Monday, Bunning got in a little confrontation with reporters who were asking him about his decision to block that legislation. He reportedly gave the middle finger to one producer from ABC News, and then he headed to an elevator generally reserved for senators, where he got into an on-camera argument with reporters.

Because of Bunning, 2,000 federal employees will be furloughed, thousands of others will lose unemployment benefits, and doctors will see a 21% cut in their Medicare reimbursements.

Cobb is loving every minute of it. "People thought I was an asshole for roughing up some guy with no hands who was heckling me," he told me this morning. "Bunning makes me look positively lovable. I can't wait to meet the motherfucker."
