"I saw pictures of Boehner and Cantor on our screens (at the convention). Don't ever let me see again, in life, those Republicans in our hall, on our screens, talking about anything. These are demons," she told the crowd.

Great showing for the Democrats............................NOT!
COH
OUR halls?
Our screens?
Who the @!$%# does this over-inflated, bitch thinks she is?
Talk about gall! She's looney as hell and God help the gullible she cons into voting for her!
@!$%#ing moron!!
Class is something that always seems to escape ms. waters. Can you just imagine, oh say, Rand Paul calling 2 or 3 selected democrats demonds?
I hope this ignorant fool is forced to make a public apology, in the Well....tomorrow.
Wait a minute, this is the Waters desirous of socializing oil companies. "Basically taking over . . . and the government running all of your companies." A regular Hugo Chavez.
(Sorry, had trouble with the link. Where's the tekkie?)
"Basically taking over . . . and the government running all of your companies." A regular Hugo Chavez.
One and the same....only, she can't spell Venezuelan Dictator, rather...she just calls him FRIEND.
I hope this ignorant fool is forced to make a public apology, in the Well....tomorrow.
She won't be, she's speaking the language of liberals and most of them agree with her. That's why they won't win in November, rational people are sick of it.
rational people are sick of it.
If a rational person could be found on Fox, anyone that is cognizant to see the brain washing on fox and realize that they fall in to the general category of those that can't see....Waters categorizing of all is a bit much but if she had said most....well......the pied piper has been playing for awhile now and many and many on the vine are played to the tune of the coded pied piper.
The language of liberals...LOL....is usually of those that can think for themselves and not follow a specific television category.....There are those that follow whatever that certain says and then there are those that use the other networks as in informational tool unlike those that look at fox unfortantely they the viewers are as long as they look like me they "must" look "exactly" like me
drummer wasn't name calling anyone but myself since I am republican...reffering to the topic of your article..did not mean to make it sound that way...but ok..thanks
American Republic, it honestly sounded to me like it was directed at another viner. I'll take your word for that and restore the comment, and thanks for the explanation, sorry about the misunderstanding!!!
its ok..but seriously was calling myself a demon..lol with some humor...no big deal i just wanted you to know that I wouldn't do that I know better...I just got through reading the article and was humored..
DS12, after some thought, I believe I acted hastily in my deletion of your comment, although I'm going to ask you to stick to the topic, which is NOT Fox News. It's pretty much common knowledge I'm not a Fox News watcher, but this story is worthy of being seeded here regardless of where it came from and you DID in fact speak to the topic.
It's late, I'm tired, have a great night and let's just move along.
After re-reading that I can see what you meant. I restored DS12 as well, I'm a little tired and should probably not even be here if the truth be known, hehehehe
Have a great evening.
its ok I'm tired too and should have been a little more clearer in my comments...lol have a good one too
Demon: a person considered extremely wicked, evil, or cruel.
I think that's an accurate description of some of these dirt bags. Let's take a random subject...abortion. They believe that victim of rape, who is pregnant and the pregnancy threatens the life of the mother should be denied an abortion. Isn't that cruel?
They have spent the past 3 years punishing the American people by rejecting just about every single bill they didn't create themselves, even when it's ideas they had, just to stick it to Obama. I'd say that's all 3.
They craft laws for the American people that they are not held to e.g. they are allowed to participate in Insider Trading and even give this information to their employees and even friends at Hedge Funds, and there can be no prosecution...I think that is either wicked or cruel or both.
I could go on.
THis is another great Maxine Waters (D. Calif) moment brought to us by the crazy ol'Foxnews.
She has spoken other racist "gems" like:
After the health care bill was signed in April 2010, Waters denounced flag-waving at a Tea Party rally. "I was amazed. I really was. I didn't say anything to anybody. I just watched—the Republicans were out there—they were having a great time. They were laughing, they were waving the American flag, they were egging them on, and I thought that was outrageous behavior. I really did."
At a 2004 congressional hearing, (and yes, that is the same "Frank" Raines that vastly overstated Fannie Mae's earnings in order to receive $90 million in bonuses). "We do not have a crisis at Freddie Mac, and particularly Fannie Mae, under the outstanding leadership of Frank Raines."

Maxine Waters and Charlie Sherrod have a lot of race hate in common.
http://www.allamericanblogger.com/11305/charles-sherrod-finally-we-must-stop-the-white-man-and-his-uncle-toms-from-stealing-our-elections/
Charles Sherrod was a Freedom Rider. He fought for equal treatment and was beaten for it.Back then, he showed more courage than most Americans ever will.But what he said here is outright racist.
Charles Sherrod: "Finally, We Must Stop the White Man and His Uncle Toms From Stealing Our Elections…"
Whats the thing with FoxNews ... I seeded this same topic with entirely different source... I found it here...
http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/291178/maxine-waters-boehnor-and-cantor-are-demons-noah-glyn
Waters said what she said ..the source used to expose it has nothing to do with her comments...
She said what she said... Defend it if you must, but to attack the source just demonstrates you can't defend her comment!
My, My. It seems that some on this vine are upset that Ms. Waters referred to some Rep/tpers as demons. Um! my guess she probably figured it would be okay to use that type of language as the Rep/tpers have modeled it ever since the President was elected. Lets see does Muslim, anti-Christian, "liar", communist, socialist, dictator sound familiar and I could good on. Payback can not only be truthful but painful.
Republicans have been acting like demons since day one of President Obama's presidency. If the shoe fits.....! If the Republicans are going to act like total jack asses, then they will be called out for it. I agree with her. OUST THE REPUBLICANS!
Annie
Which sitting member of congress used those terms (except the liar one that was pretty public ...smiles) for the president?
OUST THE REPUBLICANS!
I have a feeling you are going to be both disappointed and very angry come November ...
I have a feeling that you are DREAMING AGAIN! OBAMA 2012!
Oh, I see, Annie, it's the old..."but the other side does it too" defense. Fact of the matter is, Maxine Water has no business calling anyone anything - she is a corrupt POC politician stealing the people's money and lining her pockets with it.
Why she is still in Congress amazes me. She has been on the most corrupt list since 2005.
http://www.citizensforethics.org/press/entry/maxine-waters-named-most-corrupt-member-of-congress
She has a history of saying derogatory things - these being but a few examples:
http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Maxine_Waters
She and Bawney Fwank are both corrupt to the hilt and played games with the TARP bailout money:
http://www.bostonherald.com/blogs/news/lone_republican/?p=997&srvc=home&position=recent
- thank God that perve Fwank is getting out. The Dems will name the other corrupt one, Waters, to replace Fwank as the head of the Banking committee...just perfect. Again, why is the POC woman still in Congress after having been exposed as the fraud she is clear back in 2005?
Well said, Jim.
The Dems will name the other corrupt one, Waters, to replace Fwank as the head of the Banking committee...just perfect.
sorry this should read differently:
The Dems will name ONE of the other corrupt ones, Waters, to replace Fwank as the head of the Banking committee...just perfect.
Waters said what she said ..the source used to expose it has nothing to do with her comments..
Oh no Jim44, didn't you get the liberal memo?
ANYTHING that comes from Fox News is a lie. Never mind the fact that you got it from a completely different source or that the VIDEO is perfectly clear in what she said, it was on Fox News so it's a lie. //sarc//
vol fan in chatt, tn - you awe so funny. Enjoyed 1.28-1.29 Bawny will miss her.
drummerboy, We didn't say that everything that FAUX reports is a lie. Only about 85% of what FAUX says are lies.
Blah blah blah. Yet all you liberals SWEAR by MSNBC and The Daily Kos and Democratic Underground.
RIIIIGHTTTTTT!!!!!
Actually, I listen to conservative talk radio much more than I ever tune into MSNBC, etc. That's how I know that they lie most of the time. Sorry to burst your bubble.
FYI, I voted for Republicans my entire life up until I voted for Obama. The Republican Party isn't anything like it was twenty five years ago. Now, the Republican Party is a joke. And, one more thing, I'm PROUD to say that I am a LIBERAL and not a closed minded Republican.
The language of liberals...LOL....is usually of those that can think for themselves and not follow a specific television category.....There are those that follow whatever that certain says and then there are those that use the other networks as in informational tool unlike those that look at fox unfortantely they the viewers are as long as they look like me they "must" look "exactly" like me
Well, since you mentioned it...
Samuel L. Jackson said he voted for President Obama because of his color: “I voted for Barack because he was black. ’Cuz that’s why other folks vote for other people — because they look like them,”

Well, since you mentioned it...
Looking to get some traffic from the article you posted about Samuel Jackson comments??
Oh no Jim44, didn't you get the liberal memo?
It goes to my SPAM file ....
Nah, I knew it would remain empty, who's going to defend that?
To voice your opinion and use "swear" words when talking about a public figure is not a violation of the CoH. Don't act like butter melts in your mouth so the swear words offends you or that similar words are not used by you to describe the members of the GOP. We should not get in the habit of collapsing a comment simply because we don't like their POV.
robynlewisTX. Comment collapsed by the community
OUR halls?
Our screens?
Who the @!$%# does this over-inflated, bitch thinks she is?
Talk about gall! She's looneyas hell and God help the gullible she cons into voting for her!
@!$%#ing moron!!!
#1.1 - Thu Feb 16, 2012 8:51 PM CST
I agree by the way...who does she think she is? As an elected official her hateful comments are inflammatory, self serving and divisive at a time personal agendas should be shelved and energy focused on working for the good of ALL Americans, not just her, her cronies and Democrats.
Waters is living proof that you can put a bad wig on a turd, teach it to talk, and in Watts, they will elect it.
Agreed American Dreams, the collapse comment feature is ABSOLUTELY USELESS in my opinion and should be done away with.
I am not so sure DB. I can see it has a needed purpose. Unfortunately too many people abuse it or do not use it as it was intended...as in this case and countless other comments.
I see no purpose for having the collapse feature unless it can be refined. Moderators cannot delete collapsed comments, so if the comment DOES violate the COH, it's not deletable unless Tyler or Sally show up. And it's used 99.9% of the time to merely censor an opposing viewpoint and this is done by both sides, not just one or the other. THIS is the very reason it's my opinion this feature needs immediate refinement.
ah HA! as you voiced it I must say I now agree. I was not aware the Moderators could not delete collasped comments...I just got smarter!
tweetheart #1.40 - Democrats are the closed minded party. Trying to put that label on conservatives is nothing more buying hook, line and sinker the Obama/dem rhetoric and that is what an Obama apologist does.
nospin, Is that right? Answer....take a good look at your obstructionist party. I USED to be a Republican, up until this last election, when I discovered that I didn't agree with 99% of what the Republican Party stands for. I also left the RP because of the fact that Bush lied about WMDs to get more troops sent to war. I am not apologizing for anything that President Obama has done because, in my opinion, he hasn't done anything wrong except for letting the Republicans walk all over him. He needs to be tougher during his SECOND TERM.
OBAMA 2012!
You claim you were a Republican and changed because of your claims above is silly.
First, calling the republican party obstructionists is nonsense. What they did for the first two years of the Obama admin was what the voters wanted. Proof = the 2010 election result.
Second, you say Bush lied about the wmd's, Bush was not smart enough to cover up the truth with lies (unless you think Bush was smarter than the dems which no dems have suggested.) BTW, the dems gave approval for the war and funded it.
Thirdly, saying Obama hasn't done anything wrong equates to him being perfect and rational people know no one is perfect.
Your true colors are exposed as one who never was a Republican.
thanks backroads. Tweetheart will either not respond, or ineffectively continue to point a finger of blame on Republicans (we know where 3 fingers point when they do this). No chance she/he will consider any positions except the demparty rhetoric.
Not really.
Bush pushed and pushed to send more troops to Iraq and convinced everyone (by lying) that Hussein had all of these WMD. He didn't.
And yes, the Republican Party has turned into the Obstructionist Dominionist Party. They have acted like babies since Obama was elected. I'll be so glad that we won't have to listen to any more of this one term president crap on the conservative stations come November. Your party doesn't have a decent candidate and you know it. The RP did the same thing last time, putting the Fool and the Tool on the ballot. Pretty sad that is all your party has to run against Obama.
I don't think that Obama has done much wrong. Of course, he isn't perfect and hasn't done a perfect job, but the economy is turning around, our 401K is way higher than it has ever been before, people are starting to shop again. I know that this is not what the Republicans want to see. They want Obama to fail no matter what. They would rather see Obama fail than to see our country recover from the BUSH years. It's pathetic.
I voted a straight Republican ticket up until Obama ran (and I did vote for Ross Perot). I couldn't care less if you believe me or not. I am so glad that I have left that sorry @$$ RepubliCON Party. Jim, you must really love me. You keep following me around like an abandoned puppy. Sad, really sad. See ya.
Jim, you must really love me. You keep following me around like an abandoned puppy. Sad, really sad. See ya.
Hahahaha Oh how we flatter ourselves .... Take a peek at #1.22 It would seem you my dear are following me ... but you have been for quite awhile.... LOL ... Shame on you !!!!
Hardly. I didn't even see your posts and therefore didn't know that you were here. Guess I'll be looking for a different story to comment on.
One more comment before I leave.....OBAMA 2012! Two-terms. baby! Deal with it!
There, I threw you a bone. Poor abandoned pupy.
I thought I was on IGNORE ... crap.... now that I know your reading again ..I have to be nice...damn damn damn ...(smiles)
ABO 2012 ( to include but not limited to Donald Duck or one of the Smurfs)
I did have you on ignore, but it eliminates my comments and other peoples' comments from being viewed. I don't bother with yours.
Okay, enough slap fighting from both of you, get back to the topic and before it starts, no finger pointing about who did it first or started it either and thanks to both of you in advance.
You don't have to worry because I am leaving. This article was a big bore from the beginning. Any time I see the FAUX symbol in the future before an article, I will know that it is just a pile of conservative dribble. Bu bye.
Don't let the door hit you on your way out. Nevermind the fact that the bitch is ON VIDEO saying what she said, the video is from FOX NEWS so it MUST be fabricated, right?
EPIC FAIL
I'm "listening" backroads... I agree many would rather go on personal attacks then discuss the topic of Maxine's unprofessional remarks.
looney seems to be the new word for people like her who are Democratically teflon coated so nothing they say or do bad sticks to them. She, Charlie Rangles, Reid, Pelosi and Obama all share that trait.
not to interrupt..but I sent you an FR American...yours did't show up on mine..
as well as you..lol..it is better this way..now we can move on..lol

Why doesn't it, am I not a member of the Newsvine Community?
I'd like an explanation please Viki?
#3 - Thu Feb 16, 2012 9:47 PM ESTHere are the group guidelines:
Newsvine Community is a group reserved for articles (NO SEEDS) about the Newsvine community itself.
You are welcome to post:
1. Ideas for nurturing or improving the Newsvine community.
2. Articles detailing real-life get-togethers (VineMeets).
3. Articles detailing online-life get-togethers (NDC, "parties" held on one's column)
4. Announcements of contests or challenges (like Newsvine Photographer's monthly challenges) to be carried out by the members of the Newsvine community. The entries into these contests or challenges should NOT, however, be posted here.
5. Interviews with or articles about other Newsvine members (that comply with the Code of Honor).Do not post:
1. Seeds (unless it is an article posted elsewhere that specifically discusses the Newsvine/msnbc.com community of users)
2. Political articles.Essentially, the Newsvine Community group is a place to post articles that are about improving and nurturing the Newsvine community.
Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
Hope this helps.
A pleasure Viki. It was an honest mistake, I actually wasn't aware of the no politics, no seeds only articles thing. It won't happen again.
Have a great rest of your evening!
You too. Sorry to muck up your thread with this business!
Well the one good thing is now we are smarter! I myself did not realize you could even post to specific groups.
Nah, no worries at all, that's why your a guide and I'm just another minnow in a HUGE ocean of fish, ROFLMAO!!!
Viki Babbles Gonia - you are so nice. Love your tone. Isn't this having been a newsvine lesson a good reason to leave the seed here? You don't have to answer that, I'm just being a smuck.
I'm confused, but then, I am relatively new here. I assumed that all Newsvine was one big happy community. Am I to believe that there are portions of Newsvine that we must not visit, or should not be posted on. Help me out here.
#4 - Thu Feb 16, 2012 9:51 PM ESTThere are groups, which each have their own purpose, and own guidelines. The Newsvine Community group has a specific purpose. I quoted the guidelines above in #3.1.
I'm still confused. Is this a group? If so, how did I get in it? How are some of these other seeds not political? Is it because they referenced an article before making it political? Sorry for all the questions.
#6 - Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:57 PM ESTGilf, this seed is not a group, I mistakenly posted this seed to a group which doesn't allow seeds, only articles.
Rep. Waters, unfortunately, is correct in her conclusion. Thank you, Rep. Waters. You have told the truth. I feel sorry for you because you serve in the great House of Representatives with white trash. Pigs. You know it, and we know it.
Pattie -
Seriously? You're supporting Maxine "scandalous thief" Watters statement? Well, if Boehner and the others are "demons", than she is the Devil. She's throwing rocks in a glass house.
I feel sorry for you because you serve in the great House of Representatives with white trash. Pigs.
My.. My... a bit of a racist angle on that statement don't you think there Pattie?
"white trash. Pigs." Referring to members of the US Congress!
well, there we have it...the race card played already! Who's the "racists" again?
And they seem to always want to claim its the Republicans acting racist...
because you serve in the great House of Representatives with white trash.
PattieinMaryland,
Do NOT make racist remarks on my seeds. I'm leaving this one up to show everyone EXACTLY where you stand racially, but this is your first, last and only warning.
well, there we have it...the race card played already!
It won't be played again on my seed, I assure you. I left that one up so everyone can see who is about what.
Yep, I understand, drummer...sometimes it's best to let the people see who the racists are exactly.
Sorry to all of you offended by my use of the challenged phrase. I am of Northern European heritage, and our usage of the phrase was always in the context of people of the same ethnicity who acted as if they had no manners and no ethics and thereby bring shame and embarrassment on that heritage. Boehner and the Teabaggers and the Joe Wilsons fit that description, and that is what I was getting at. Low-class people who by their views and actions are not worthy of the great legislative body of our republic. I used to use the term "trailer trash", but then thought it was insulting to the many good people who live in trailer housing as a matter of their economic condition.
PattyinMaryland - Waters is the one up on ethics charges. Shes a thief of public monies. She is the one throwing out slurs...no manners. Really, reread the article.
pattie - The Pelosi's and Reid's of Congress fit the description you posted in #7.8
Pelosi and Reid are a thousand times more honorable and have a thousand times more integrity. How about Darel Issa? Talk about insulting scum and a pig. How about that moron who can't even support his own kids? I'm talking about the scumbags who insult women, gays, people of color, and the President of the United States because of his party and because of his ethnic background. The list is long. But people who have no respect for others are deserving of no respect at all. Take that, Joe Wilson. People like him are dirt. Rep. Pelosi and Rep. Reid have done much more to enhance the well-being of the American people as a whole than any of these scumbags have.
Pelosi and Reid are a thousand times more honorable and have a thousand times more integrity.
Yea RIGHT ..... hahahhahaha
I know. It's a waste of time. It's so difficult to compare and contrast people's behavior and conduct, instead of viewing people as "groups." It takes too many words to subdivide "groups" according to their actions: i.e. "good" Christians v. "bad" Christians, "good" men v. "bad" men, etc. You can't just say "Christian" or "men" because that implies all members of that group. Futility. But we have to say something to combat this nonsense, just so these people don't think we support them.
Pattie, Don't waste your time or effort.
Ah my shadow !!!
Steve do me a favor and do not make references to Hitler or anything Nazi related on my seeds, it's disgusting, extremely inflammatory, highly offensive and there's simply no need for it.
Thanks.
Pattie - please respond to the fact that Ms Waters is up on serious theft/ethics charges.
It's not that it's offensive. It's just not smart. She was at a party convention, so I get why she's being all partisan, but after you're done calling people names, you have to go back and actually work with those people. We already have a problem with extreme partisanship in Congress. This just adds to the problem.
#8 - Fri Feb 17, 2012 12:10 AM ESTWell, all them pubbies done got their panties in a wad over what this colored lady had to say.. I guess the truth hurts.. now don't it?
#9 - Fri Feb 17, 2012 12:36 AM ESTNo kidding! I straightened my Republican parents out on that kind of garbage about forty years ago!
And what truth has Waters actually said that is supposed to hurt? All I heard was hysterical ranting calling the Republican Party demons. That's funny I don't see any horns growing out of them so it must not be true. But I'd did see Waters eyes turning to a demonic red hue while she was foaming at the mouth. Maybe she needs some Xanax lots and lots of xanex.
CountrySimple - Defend the ethics charge against Ms Waters.
My God when did the right-wing become such whiny-a#$es?
Clint Eastwood gets paid to make a feel-good advertisement for Chrysler, must be a conspiracy aimed at Republicans!
Insurance Companies decide to provide free-birth control in order to cut down THEIR OWN costs (i.e.-- increase their shareholder value, the job of ANY public company, BTW), must be a conspiracy aimed at Republicans!
Now a politician makes a feel-good speech to her OWN PARTY, must be a conspiracy aimed at Republicans!
Damn folks...PROJECT MUCH do you?!
My God when did the right-wing become such whiny-a#$es?
I have to remember that ..... This from a party that blames someone getting shot on a map with no names and just States outlined and scopes pointed at them ...
Now that @!$%# is funny ....
I have to remember that ..... This from a party that blames someone getting shot on a map with no names and just States outlined and scopes pointed at them ...
In the words of another 'viner, Democrats look at you funny, Republicans anally rape you, so they're both just as bad?
That's the moral equivalent of the comparison who've just tried to hide behind, sir.
That's the moral equivalent of the comparison who've just tried to hide behind, sir.
You don't know me very well !!!!! Do you?
I say exactly what I mean ....
I say exactly what I mean ...
I'm afraid it's simply not possible for someone to hide behind "they do it too!" to also claim "they say exactly what they mean".
By it's very nature, claiming "they do it too!" as a defense is an attempt to deflect from one topic by switching to another.
hahahahahaha quite the philosopher..
If I point out someone being a hypocrite by calling someone else a hypocrite...
I'll using some kind of defense? Now that is a very interesting concept... But, anyone reading you wonderful BOD words of wit... Must notice you always seem to be able to make it the Republicans who are at fault ... But I am sure that is just a coincidence and you will have some wonderful Bold advice for me to point out why you are so much more intelligent than I am and the errors of my ways! (Truly laughs out loud)
By it's very nature, claiming "they do it too!" as a defense is an attempt to deflect from one topic by switching to another.
Really? Do you know how many pages I could fill right now with liberal comments deflecting anything Obama does to Bush, pointing fingers everywhere except where they should be, calling people racist for not supporting Obama, Liberals calling Sarah Palin everything but a woman, or Jan Brewer or any number of others, Bush among them, and I'm no Bush fan by any stretch of the imagination?
Spare us the poor me victim @!$%#, finger pointing goes on daily and repeatedly by liberals all over this website.
At #10.5 and #10.6 --
Think you both for proving my point perfectly.
You mean like when the Republicans said that they could be trusted to bring back jobs back in 2010?
MJM, I'm telling you, don't bother with them.
If progressives are the smartest people on the planet, as they seem to think, why do they need Republicans to create jobs for them, arent they smart enough to do it themselves? And why are Republicans management and democrats labor? Maybe they arent as smart as they tell themselves they are.
tweetheart- The jobs HAVE returned since the 2010 election or haven't you been paying attention?
nospin
It seems if the argument is about How bad the economy and Obama is being blamed ... Democrats will point to the falling unemployment rate... And claim jobs are coming back ...
But many of those same people will try to attack Republicans and want to know where the jobs are...
A true Democratic strategy demonstrated day in and day out ...
Both ends against the middle...
I see the Rep/TP don't have a problem with what was said a CPAC last weekend, because they were lying about the President. Hypocrites!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#11 - Fri Feb 17, 2012 1:17 AM ESTI see the Rep/TP don't have a problem with what was said a CPAC last weekend, because they were lying about the President.
But Democrats did complain and now they are here claiming she has every right to say anything she wants and then calling others Hypocrites... LOL The Irony !
Even though Maxine's comment is very un-called for, I never saw this kind of outrage from Republicans when President Obama and Pelosi were constantly referred to as "Anti-Christs" and "Satan."
#12 - Fri Feb 17, 2012 1:57 AM ESTI never saw this kind of outrage from Republicans when President Obama and Pelosi were constantly referred to as "Anti-Christs" and "Satan."
By sitting members of Congress? I seem to have missed that! Please provide a link!
And yes there is a major difference.... Between a pundit and a Elected member of our government! In my opinion anyway!
I never saw this kind of outrage from Republicans when President Obama and Pelosi were constantly referred to as "Anti-Christs" and "Satan."
Link your proof this kind of thing has been said by a sitting member of congress.
Wow. I went and read the article and came back here and it seems about 14 comments were made in 2 min!. Isn't it interesting that she is wearing RED. The woman behind her in blue looks a bit amazed. This woman is seriously unhinged. BUT she is fulfilling the democrats agenda, to divide this country. Throwing in the quaking banks was a nice touch...given the close association she enjoys with the OWLs, or hopes to have. She must think that the majority of the country agrees with the 99%. Is that who the audience is in this speaking venue? Aren't there bankers present who may be potential donors? faux paux... But her main concern is to be re-elected so she can stay on that finance board. No doubt. An example of someone who has no thought before she opens her mouth.
#13 - Fri Feb 17, 2012 7:43 AM ESTShe's as bad a moron as Pelosi, she opens her mouth without thinking in the least about what she's saying.
#13.3 deleted as off topic. This isn't a grammar class and I don't need anyone, ESPECIALLY you telling me how to write, got it?
ESPECIALLY you
What's that supposed to mean? I understand why my post pointing out a grammatically incorrect post might be considered off-topic, but why must turn this into a "me vs. the world" type argument? Why do you immediately decide to simply get pi#$ed off instead of actually trying and have a debate?
Hey Drummerboy
From a friend to a friend: When people got nothing left to say or cannot defend their views it seems very common for them to toss out their race card or lob a political poop-grenade in the seed or at another poster. For others becoming a Spelling Naziism when they got nothing else.
Take a mental margarita break. Lower your blood pressure and you'll be okay. Don't let them goad you into making a comment that violates the CoH.
#14 deleted, COMPLETELY OFF TOPIC.
Go read the title of the seed then watch the video and try to post accordingly.
#15 - Fri Feb 17, 2012 1:52 PM ESTI wouldn't say Boehner or Kantor are demons, but they are what bad dreams are made of.
#16 - Fri Feb 17, 2012 2:00 PM ESTDemons?.......Hardly.
The word "demon" actually means "wise one"
Neither Boehner nor Cantor fit that description.
#17 - Fri Feb 17, 2012 2:41 PM ESTThe word "demon" acutally means "wise one'
Oh yes, there is wisdom and then there is wisdom, and from where does it come?
Who is wise, and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in humility that comes from wisdom. BUT if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. Such wisdom does come down from heaven but is earthly, nonspiritual, and of the devil. For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder, and every evil practice.
But the wisdom that comes from heaven if first of all pure; then peace loving, submissive , full of mercy and good fruit, impartial, and sincere. Peacemakers , who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness. James 3:13-17 (The brother of Jesus)
Love her use of descriptive language.
Quick, someone in production, next time Cantor is on camera and speaking in a microphone, draw two devil horns, and a wicked mustache on the lens of the camera. When Maxine sees that image on screen in the halls, oh, boy, that will get her running.
Come on SNL, this one is free.
#18 - Fri Feb 17, 2012 3:34 PM ESTBoehner is waaaay too much like Eeyore to ever be considered for demon status. Cantor is AT BEST an imp.
#19 - Fri Feb 17, 2012 4:04 PM ESTDon't ever let me see again, in life, those Republicans in our hall, on our screens, talking about anything. These are demons," she told the crowd.
Or what? Dammit if you're going to make a threat you gotta add teeth to it or it's just stupid posturing trying to get the lemmings ready for the jump.
#20 - Fri Feb 17, 2012 9:43 PM EST#20 - "Don't ever let me see again, in life, those Republicans in our hall, on our screens, talking about anything." Ms Waters said. Or I'll resign from Congress.
Is that ok cannonballer?
Silly me. I thought that is why anyone is in Congress, to talk about things.
drummer sent you an fr if you wil accept...thanks...hopefully we are well rested now..lol
#21 - Sat Feb 18, 2012 9:49 AM ESTHehehehehe............we ARE and I'll go accept it now okay?!?
AR...went to visit your site and saw you have not posted any more Fish Adventures or Dillo Dances since early Sept. What's with that? FR sent if you will accept it.
DB is it just me or does it seem Maxine is still getting a pass by the media and by many Dems for her unprofessional behavior?
I appreciate it American!...haven't had the oppurtunity to get back to normal since work has taken over..been off for a bit but am trying..lol
Ok american went and checked couldn't find the request so I sent you one..lol
Gee I wonder if old "Fair and Balanced" covers every story where Republicans demonize Democrats with the same fained outrage.
Just for the record Fox News follower the Venezuelan you are referring too, was elected by his people. Do Fox folks have a problem with Democracy.
Venezuela send subsidize oil to help low income Americans keep warm. What do Shell, BP, Exon, Mobile and other companies do beside buy politicians to look after their own narrow interest.

Can you cite ANY reference where a Republican sitting member of Congress called a democratic sitting member of Congress a "DEMON".
Can you cite ANY reference where a Republican sitting member of Congress called a democratic sitting member of Congress a "DEMON".
Here's my bet. I can go make lunch, clean my horse stalls, change my oil and take a nap before anyone comes up with your challenge drummerboy. in fact, I can live the rest of this year before someone comes up with that answer. Face it, Swamp Waters is an ignorant, racist bigot. AND NO REPUBLICAN HAS SAID SUCH A VILE THING ON THE FLOOR OF CONGRESS.
Stop with the....non existent equivalence nonsense.
I tend to agree with you FreedomRanger. Because this very challenge has been issued more than once and the silence in answering is deafening indeed.
I suppose there's a good chance Maxine believes in demons, which would reflect extraordinary ignorance and backwardness.
BLOGGER #22 - They send it to curry political favor, not out of kindness.

Now that's a HOOT,,, as if elections in dictator controlled countries mean anything!!!
An election does not a Democracy make... Saddam was elected with 100% of the vote!
Saddam 'wins 100% of vote'
Iraqi officials say President Saddam Hussein has won 100% backing in a referendum on whether he should rule for another seven years.
There were 11,445,638 eligible voters - and every one of them voted for the president, according to Izzat Ibrahim, Vice-Chairman of Iraq's Revolutionary Command Council.
The government insists the count was fair and accurate

I guess that's your idea of Democracy?
