Sam Brownback loved Francis Ricciardone Jr. before he stalled his nomination for ambassadorship

Remember “Dyslexic Heart” that awesome Paul Westerberg song from the ’90s? “Do I love you? Do I hate you? I got a dyslexic heart,” the former Replacements frontman waffled. Somebody should gift Sam Brownback the song on iTunes.

The outgoing Kansas senator might find it very inspiring as he tries to explain why he derailed Francis Ricciardone Jr.‘s nomination to be ambassador to Turkey even though he was totally crazy about the guy in 2002.
