Oklahoma Representative Tom Cole.

“It’s a little like a dysfunctional family right now, where everybody knows old Uncle Joe at the end of the table’s an alcoholic, but nobody wants to say it. And somebody needs to say it. We need to get Joe some help. Come on, he’s ruined too many Christmas parties!”
— Rep. Tom Cole (R-OK) on the state of the Republican party to the New Yorker.
