James Jeffords

James Jeffords is the ultimate donkey in elephant's clothing: a man who, for years, posed as a godly Republican only to stab the Grand Ole Party in the back by becoming an Independent (leading scholars believe he is in fact Joe Lieberman's evil, less douchey twin).

In 2002, Jeffords took the GOP's ball and went home because he couldn't get with the program and screw over disabled people set budget priorities in favor of the strong.
