Not a Joke – White House Served Acorn Cookies at Holiday Party

Are we paying for those cookies? Wouldn’t it be easier to just come out and tell the American people “I spit in your face!”?

According to Fox News, Rep. Steve King (R-IA) pocketed a few of the cookies as a souvenir.

The irony of the White House dishing out acorn-shaped chocolate cookies seemed a little, well, “nutty” to King. The Iowa Republican is one of the loudest voices calling for Congress to investigate ACORN.

King pocketed several of the acorn cookies at the White House soiree and even stowed a few at home in his freezer. King even delivered a real acorn to House Judiciary Committee John Conyers, D-Mich., in an effort to launch a dialogue about the organization’s legal woes.

“Bill Clinton redefined a two and a three-letter word,” King said, a reference to Clinton’s denial of the Lewinsky scandal . “But from the man who wrote ‘The Audacity of Hope,’ we were served the very redefinition of the word ‘audacity.’”

Redefining audacity – I’ll say!
