Pete Stark (D) - "I Wouldn't Dignify You by Peeing on Your Leg. It Wouldn't be Worth Wasting The Urine."

Congressman Pete Stark (D-CA)had something 'interesting' to say to a constituent at a town hall meeting; "I wouldn’t dignify you by peeing on your leg. It wouldn’t be worth wasting the urine.". To be fair, there is a bit of context to the line he delivered. His constituent ended his comments by saying "Don’t pee on my leg and tell me it’s raining". It is possible Stark was attempting some sort of satirical-humorous-rebuttal-something. His face does not give any indication of that, but it is possible. Either way, it fell flat and he seemed to know it. Still; to say you would dignify someone by peeing on them because it would be a waist of urine ... he should not have said it.
