**** SCROLL DOWN FOR UPDATE ****

Hezbollah’s favorite liberal U.S. Congressman, John Dingell Jr., announced this morning that after nearly six decades in Congress–SIX!–he’s finally retiring. It’s hilarious to hear the 87-year-old (he’ll be 88 in July) say the reason is that he doesn’t want people to say he stayed too long. Um, habibi, you’re a few decades–actually, a half-century, too late for that. Dead Man Walking Dingell is finally going to his crypt, far, far too late. [FYI, Dingell is Hezbollah’s fave lib Congressman because it has another fave, faux-conservatie Darrell Issa, on the “right.”]

Dingell, as you’ll recall, defended and praised Hezbollah, the Islamic terrorist group that murdered over 300 U.S. Marines and U.S. Embassy officials in Beirut bombings; hijacked TWA 947 and tortured to death Navy Diver Robert Dean Stethem in 1985; kidnapped, tortured, and murdered US Embassy CIA attache William F. Buckley (in 1984) and UN Peacekeeper and U.S. Marine Col. Rich Higgins (in 1988); co-perpetrated with Al-Qaeda the Khobar Towers bombing in which Americans were the target; created the IEDs that Al-Qaeda insurgents used against U.S. troops in Iraq; and runs a good deal of the illegal drugs and counterfeit goods trade in America. But, hey, John Dingell Jr. says Hezbollah isn’t a terrorist group. “I don’t take sides,” the schmuck said. Because, after all, he represents Hezbollah’s U.S. beachhead in Dearbornistan.

My late grandfather, Irving W. Schlussel–an attorney, prominent Michigan Democrat, and leading American supporter of the State of Israel–was friends with Dingell’s father, the late John Dingell Sr., who preceded him in the Congressional seat. I’ve previously posted the photos below of Grandpa Schlussel with Dingell’s dad, who was also a supporter of the Jewish State and Israel’s right to exist. His son is one of the most anti-Israel Congressmen by voting record. Sadly, this is a stark instance where unlike father, unlike son is the case. Dingell’s pop had class and cared about America. His son is a mentally-weak, feeble mind, who has also been feeble of body and displaying signs of early-onset dementia for years.

So, now, the Junior Dingell–who has been in Congress from his late 20s to his late 80s is finally leaving, decades too late. When he celebrated his 50 years in Congress, the Detroit and national media celebrated, as if being a high-paid, eternal welfare queen on the public dole and using it to favor Hezbollah, auto bailouts, and ObamaCare (all of which were his “sparkling” “achievements”) is something to celebrate. Career politicians aren’t something to celebrate. They are something to denigrate and snicker at . . . and remove from office.

So who will run for the soon-to-be-vacant Dearbornistan Congressional seat that also spans to include non-Muslim, Republican enclaves? Unfortunately, it will be Dingell’s haggish, annoying, know-it-all (but actually knows nothing), blowhardette wife, Debbie Dingell, heir to the Fisher Auto Body fortune. Think a thinner version of Carl Levin with peroxide blonde hair who thinks she’s a woman (but only the gynecologist knows for sure) and constantly shrieks about anything and everything. I debated this dingbat on local TV shows several times and handily kicked this humorless, stick-up-her-butt fraud’s ass each time. She couldn’t handle it, and in the green room was rudely spewing hate against me with a legal pad covering her mouth (she thought sound waves are blocked by pads of paper, apparently–newsflash: they aren’t). “Who is she?!” was one of her withering attacks.

If there is any justice, one or more of John Dingell’s sons from his first marriage–they also want the seat and have been waiting into their 50s and 60s for pop to finally take a hint and step down–will run, as has been rumored, against Debbie Dingbat. Debbie Dingbat, by the way, has her nose firmly implanted in the rears of the Hezbollah and HAMAS constituents of Dearbornistan. She was on the board of directors of ACCESS–the Arab Community Center for Economic and Social Services–a tax-funded Muslim welfare agency that funded divestment conferences against Israel, ran a Muslim illegal alien Medicaid fraud ring, helps illegal aliens get into the U.S. and game the system to stay here, and spent thousands training the Al-Qaeda Detroit terror cell so its members could get Commercial Driver’s Licenses and attempt to get HazMat Hauling Certificates. Debbie Dingbat also hangs out with HAMAS CAIR and actual Islamic terrorists, such as Imad Hamad . . . all while wearing a hijab (Islamic headscarf). Check out the photo below.

John Dingell’s toughest race in recent memory was the slugging he got from Rob Steele, a brilliant, successful surgeon. I hope he runs for the seat, now that the air has finally been cleared of Hezbollah’s American cryptkeeper. Steele, a well-spoken businessman and down-the-line conservative, has the money and the know-how to mount an effective campaign and would make a great Congressman.

In any event, buh-bye John Dingell. Don’t let the door hit ya on the way out. And by the way, when you finally meet your maker (which will probably be very soon), you won’t be getting any of those 72 virgins your Hezbollah cronies have been promising.

G-d knows you need them after decades with Debbie Dingell.

*** UPDATE: Forgot to mention that John Dingell also brought us the neo-Marxist crazy, John Conyers, another aging Demosaur (and Demo-sore). Dingell hired Conyers as his chief of staff and set off Conyers’ political career. May they both rot with the 72 Debbie Dingells.
