Maxine Waters Says the Craziest Things

Look Everybody, it's the Crazy Black Lady!"
Hey everybody! It's my favorite! Look everybody. It's the crazy black lady! --- Kenny Rogers [1:00-1: 25]

My favorite episode of Mad TV always features Will Sasso playing the crazy, hedonistic, uninhibited Kenny Rogers.

As a guest host for the variety show after he had moved onto other projects, Sasso returned and played in a skit called "Kenny Rogers Reality Show."

In the first scene, he meets the "dumbass" contestants, and when he sees the African-American woman, he shouts "It's the crazy black lady!"

When I recall that line, there is another crazy black lady I think of: Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-Torrance. Can you believe it? Torrance!)

Here is a list of some -- hardly exhaustive list -- of the things which "Crazy Black Lady" Maxine Waters has uttered in the past (and they are utterly foolish):

During the LA Riots of 1992, Waters practically justified, if not outright defended, the rioting, pillaging, and looting which took place:

 “If you call it a riot, it sounds like it was just a bunch of crazy people who went out and did bad things for no reason.   I maintain it was somewhat understandable, if not acceptable.   So I call it a rebellion.

Keep in mind that a great deal of white people as well as other ethnic groups starting looting during the riots. How dragging a truck driver out of his cabin and beating him senseless constitutes social protest is just beyond me.

Crazy!
Waters sits as ranking (and rank) member on the House Finance and Banking Committee. In the late 2000s, Her comments about the solvency of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac bear repeating (and ridicule):

We do not have a crisis at Freddie Mac, and particularly Fannie Mae, under the outstanding leadership of Frank Raines.

One housing crisis and millions of homes lost, jobs lost, and a Great Recession later, one has to wonder what Waters is doing on the House Finance Committee in the first place.

In 2008, Water commented in a documentary on progressive values  that "Conservative values have failed. I think that weak people are preyed upon. . . but I think that they [conservative talk radio] have failed. . ."

Also in 2008, Here's her botched up attempt to shake up the oil companies in Congress:

What guarantees are you going to give this liberal about how that will reduce the cost of gasoline at the pump if we let you drill where you say you want to drill. . .And guess what this liberal will be all about. This liberal will be all about socializ. . . will be about . . .basically taking over and the government running all your companies. Uh Uh Uh. . .

Crazy!

Liberal talk shows have closed down all over the country, even in liberal California and New York. As for preying on the weak, look no further than any major city with Democratic dominance, and you will find poverty, corruption, and crime.

In 2010, Congresswoman Waters was offended at the flag-waving Tea Party protesters:

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.”

Waving the American flag is an outrageous act? Are you kidding me? Then again, students in a Bay Area high school were required to take their American flag shirts off, for fear of offending some gang-related groups. She was critical of Americans demonstrating their First Amendment to petition their government. With these kind of statements, what would she have thought of Dr. Martin Luther King giving his "I have a Dream Speech" in 1963? There were lots of flags there, and men and women were criticizing their government then.

In 2011, Waters was trying to keep her Congressional aspirations afloat, fearing that she would be dumped into another district and have to challenge another (incumbent) Democrat, Waters showed her solidarity with organize labor and the blame game of the Democratic machine: "The Tea Party can go straight to hell!"


 I wonder if she would say that Reverend Jesse Lee Peterson, the African-American leader of the South LA Tea Party.


In 2012, Waters turned up her outrageous rhetoric once again, literally demonizing her Congressional colleagues:

I saw pictures of Boehner and Cantor on our screens. Don’t ever let me see again in life those Republicans in our hall, on our screens, talking about anything. These are demons.

And this is coming from the lady who said that the Tea Party can go straight to hell? Who is dancing with the devil, really?

In 2013, after his second inauguration, about President Obama's campaign machine, Organizing for Action, Waters commented:

And that database will have information about everything on every individual in ways that it’s never been done before.

I thought that was called the NSA, or the CIA.

Following the breakdown of lawmakers' discussion on avoiding the sequester, Waters announced: "If sequestration takes place, that's going to be a big setback. . .it's going to cause these job losses, 170 million jobs."

Then came the shutdown but Waters would not shut her mouth, and she spewed more venom:

I am encouraged more by what happened with Republicans yesterday-- they had been mislead by Senator Cruz. I understood that they referred to him as a snake-oil salesman.

There aren't even that many people working in this country, and without a doubt that number has already dwindled considerably.

Even Jay Leno could not pass that whopper up. Crazy as well as stupid!

Speaking to the Congressional Black Caucus last year, Maxine Waters discussed the spread of crack cocaine in South Los Angeles:

It was just everywhere, and as I traveled across the country I saw entire towns that were cracked out. I mean, everybody was on crack. . .

Wow!

For all the outrageous outbursts which have poured out of Congresswoman Waters' mouth, perhaps she should take some advice from another black, Democratic activist quoted in Politico:

After the president’s speech, three African-American women, asked their opinion of the event, volunteered their criticism of Waters for violating the unspoken understanding not to criticize the first black president.

“We as African-Americans have to be smarter,” said Ruby Hicks of Racine, Wis. “And Maxine Waters needs to shut up.”

Thank you! I could not have said it better myself!

Obamacare is Going Straight to Hell, After All!

"As far as I'm concerned, the TEA Party can go straight to hell!" -- Maxine Waters.

For the first time in years, if anyone can ever remember a fiery race-hustler getting called on their disrespectful remarks, Congresswoman Maxine Waters had no choice but to back-pedal from her crude remarks in a 2011 job forum in Inglewood.

Fox News even confronted her in the halls of Congress about her inappropriate comments. She just smiled and looked away from the camera until she escaped into an elevator.

Still, her remarks have rattled conservatives, yet mainstream affiliates pushed her to justify such outrageous remarks.

She appeared on Meet the Press and other NBC affiliates trying to justify then deflect the statements she made.

Of course, her coarse rhetoric knows no bounds, and she has uttered such offensive remarks before.

I was at a Tea Party rally in Torrance, CA, which now makes up a large part of her new Congressional district. The residents in Torrance, however, have a different view of her new responsibilities, and the comments are not good.

One lady told me: "She's awful!"

Another lady told me how she calls her office and tweets to her about the outrageous remarks she made about the Tea Party.

One wonders if she has met Reverend Jesse Peterson, who leads the South LA Tea Party. Does Congresswoman Waters think that this African-American Pastor should go straight to hell, too?

When I confronted her in a town hall meeting in September, 2013, I could not help myself:

"As far as I'm concerned, Obamacare can go straight to hell."

I was wrong-- Obamacare is already there, and taking in  its fiery, frustrating wake access to quality health care while limiting the doctors and medical specialists which Americans, young and old, can see. State insurance exchanges intended to create a competitive marketplace are crashing all over the country. While President Obama and his team tout that 4 million people have signed up, the same statistics fail to calculate that a number of those individuals have not paid their first month's premium Without and funds going into the system, there is no funding that will support the slightly greater number of poor and sick people jumping into the program, who are depending on a government subsidy to get health insurance.

Coupling these unpleasant statistics with the horror stories of individual Americans with Obamacare insurance still left paying the bill, and we can see that Obamacare is taking not just the medical profession, not just the health industry, but an unprecedented number of sick and wounded Americans with it.

Pilot to co-pilot, your health insurance is going up in flames!

"I Have Lost all Respect for the Man"

Maxine Waters posed quietly with Congressman Henry Waxman,
but we can be sure that sparks were flying unseen.
(Source: http://torrance2014.blogspot.com/2013/12/congressman-henry-waxman-and.html)



Now check out what Congresswoman Maxine Waters had to say about retiring (er, retreating) Congressman Henry Waxman:

Now I can't say this is why Mr. Waxman is doing what he's doing," said Waters.  "But these are the two places they go for money - the Chamber.....and organized labor. And so some of these elected officials don't feel they can be independent and fight. They say, 'Hey, you know, this is too difficult, after all, they've come together on this issue'."

I don't have any respect for you having been doing that.

I want you to find all the community activists in his district and ask them to join with us. I want them to call him and tell him to get his nose out of Westchester's business. He's thinking, 'Well, it's not my district, so I don't have to worry about my constituents on this issue. I can do what ever I want.'"

But we have to turn that around. Get busy. I will remind him, every day, that we're after him.", Waters said, smiling.

Wow.

What This Liberal is Really All About

What is a liberal?

Someone who supports freedom.

Does Maxine Waters support freedom?

She supports Obamacare.

Obamacare is causing people to lose their current insurance.

They have to pay for more expensive coverage, or end up on a state-sponsored subsidy.

While Obamacare claimed to protect young adults, allowing them to stay on their parents' insurance until twenty-six, more parents are losing their insurance.

Doctors are leaving the medical profession.

Local clinics are closing up, or rationing care.

Even national Mainstream Media affiliates are reporting the devastating fallout of Obamacare.

The  mandatory provisions forcing people to purchase overpriced insurance having nothing to do with freedom at all.

I am a liberal, because I support free markets, free enterprise, and free people.

So it's time for this liberal to tell Waters and anyone who doesn't know what this liberal is all about.

This liberal is all about getting Maxine Waters out of office.

Maxine Waters Town Hall -- Extended





Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-Gardena) hosted at a town hall meeting at St. John Church in El Camino Village on Crenshaw Blvd.





Before the meeting, I debated with three liberal activists from Torrance, all armed with "No War in Syria" placards. I agreed with their anti-interventionist stance, although the rest of their politics I would not care for. Following the redistricting efforts of 2011, residents in east Torrance ended up in the new 43rd, where Maxine Waters cruised to reelection against an unprepared Democrat, Bob Flores. They liked the change for the liberal. I got stuck with Henry Waxman in the 33rd (Click

here to learn more).





Another gentleman, Brian, joined our discussion, content to contend that Obamacare was the first step toward a single-payer system. I calmly objected, since socialized medicine had failed in Great Britain and in Canada. I shared the reports which I had read and seen from patients, doctors, and other health care professionals who had lived in those countries before the single-payer system emerged. Rationing, long lines, closed clinics, frequent misconduct, underground private facilities. He wouldn't hear any of it. "You're focusing on all the negatives!"





Obamacare is forcing doctors out of medicine, raising premiums, diminishing access, and raising taxes on Americans. Postives?





Brian then countered: "You cannot compare Canada and Britain to the United States. We should try it out here first." Then I recounted the failures in Massachusetts and Tennessee. Another man spoke up about the Medicare exchanges. I counted with reports from doctors who were leaving private practice, and the growing exodus of health insurers out of the exchanges, including Kaiser. "Where's the competition?" I asked. I then presented a novel idea: just because a law mandates something does not mean that the service will be there. Health insurers are leaving the industry. Law can demand, but it cannot supply.





One of the liberal anti-war protestors agreed with me -- there has to be profit in the medical profession. The other woman welcomed the dialogue. Brian stopped listening.





At 2:00pm, Waters took the church lector/podium. She blamed the conservatives in Congress for holding the budget hostage, for delaying the implementation of Obamacare, and for the savage cuts which were hurting every other victimized interest group created by liberal interests.





Next, Experts from the health care industry, lobbyists for small business, and a nurse from Cedar Sinai Medical Center muddled their way through the Affordable Care Act. The two hour gobbledy-gookfest would have frightened George Orwell for its insistence on telling people that everything will be fine. Such denial of the obvious was sickening. The nurse from Cedar Sinai declared that she was "joyful, ecstatic!" about Obamacare, which she personalized as "MaxineCare" or "YouCare". She misrepresented the length of the bill, claiming that there was gold in the nine hundred pages. Waters' brochures and frequent newspapers affirmed that the legislation was 2,500 pages. There were discussion of closing "the donut hole" in Medicare", followed by a slide with another "donut hole".





Aside from myself and one young black girl, the audience was made up of elderly people, but the "Young Invincibles" representative reminded everyone that young people have to buy insurance. They have to!





The presenters recounted statistic upon statistic, baptizing us into the Obamacare koolaid. I was disturbed, remained unbelieving.





Then came the mike. A long line of people showed up. The first speaker, from Encino, commented that the death panels were not in Obamacare, but in the stimulus. How about that? Someone from outside the district speaking up to Waters. I felt bolder. The next speaker, a classified employee from LA Unified, lamented his new, part-time status because of Obamacare, then questioned why illegal aliens would get health care but not have to buy insurance, while American citizens were forced into purchasing health insurance. A deranged Iraqi, the liberal anti-war protestors, and then John Wood of Inglewood took to the mike. Wood is the Republican candidate running against Maxine Waters in 2014. "We've been watching you!" Waters playfully admitted, then dismissed him after his lengthy question.





Then it was my long-awaited turn.





First, I complimented Congresswoman Waters for seeking to end the War on Drugs. I also agreed that insurance companies should not push people off their plans.





Then I catalogued the rise in premiums reported in the LA Times and in news affiliates across the country. I mentioned insurance companies leaving the Medicare exchanges. "That's not a shopping mall. That's a monopoly!" I talked about a retired teacher in Torrance who had four doctors because each one retired over Obamacare.





Then came the piece de résistance:





"You gotta be tough for this game, and I'm not afraid of anybody. And I think that Obamacare should go straight to hell!"





I mimicked Waters' offensive rhetoric from a 2011 town hall meeting, then stormed off, refusing to listen to Waters dialogue from the same false premise that "Obamacare is good."





I left the church with loud boos following.





I don't know if I accomplished much that evening, but I had a good time giving liberals and Congressman Waters a piece of my mind.

Waters in Gardena Town Hall Meeting



Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-Westchester) hosted at a town hall meeting at St. John Church in El Camino Village on September 14.



 

She wrongly blamed the conservatives in Congress for holding the budget hostage, for delaying Obamacare, and for the savage sequester cuts. Conservatives are trying to save this country by staving off insurmountable debt.



Next, Experts from the health care industry, lobbyists for small business, and a nurse from Cedar Sinai Medical Center to explaion the Affordable Care Act. The nurse from Cedar Sinai misrepresented the length of the bill, claiming that there was gold in the nine hundred pages. Waters' brochures affirmed that the legislation was 2,500 pages.

Then came the mike for public discussion. The first speaker, from Encino, commented that the death panels were not in Obamacare, but in the stimulus. The next speaker, a classified employee from LA Unified, lamented his part-time status because of Obamacare, then questioned why illegal aliens would get health care but not have to buy insurance, while American citizens were forced into purchasing health insurance. Then John Wood of Inglewood discussed the premium hikes of Obamacare. Wood is the Republican candidate running against Maxine Waters in 2014. "We've been watching you!" Waters playfully admitted, then dismissed him after his lengthy question.



Then it was my turn.



I complimented Congresswoman Waters for seeking to end the War on Drugs.

Then I shouted, mimicking her tirade during a 2011 town hall meeting in Inglewood:



"You gotta be tough for this game, and I'm not afraid of anybody. And I think that Obamacare should go straight to hell!"



Every American should shout at their Congressman: Obamcare should go straight to hell!



I am glad for an open forum to share my views (Congressman Henry Waxman shut me down in an open forum, as well as resident in Venice), but Congresswoman Waters cannot wade through all the paperwork, stats, and conflicting information to convince anyone that Obamacare is anything more than "a train wreck."

About Maxine Waters in Torrance

For the first time in California history, an Independent Citizens Commission redrew the Congressional Districts. Unfortunately, Congresswoman Waters faced neither a change nor challenge to her constituency dominance. Featured on last week’s Torrance Tribune cover, Congresswoman Maxine Waters has reigned in South Los Angeles for twenty years. From raising taxes to threatening the nationalization of major companies, no representative better typifies poor financial understanding mixed with racial overtones than Waters.
 
Despite an easy campaign, Waters advertised in a remarkably widespread fashion, posting in the Argonaut News as well as local South Bay Papers. Now that she is in office, whose views will she represent? The same impoverished policies which have diminished the opportunities of residents in West Athens and Gardena, or the more freedom-loving and free market principles of Torrance and Lomita, two new constituencies which she did not even bother to visit during her “campaign” for the new 43rd Congressional District?
 
Congresswoman Waters’ record should have disqualified her from running for office. In one Congressional panel, she claimed that President Ronald Reagan flooded LA streets with drugs. Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washingtonranked her as one of the most corrupt members of Congress. Two years ago, Waters was under investigation for steering TARP funds toward one of her husband’s banks. After that, she cried out “The TEA Party can go straight to hell!” while pretending to ally the economic fears of her constituents in Inglewood and South Los Angeles.
 
Torrance residents: Keep your eyes on “Queen Maxine.”

Ms. Waters: Socia. . .. Government Take Over

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqFIb0uVZrs

Congressman Waters in open committee would support social. . . er letting government take over the oil companies?

This is outrageous!

I cannot believe that Congresswoman  Maxine Waters gets away with such foolish commentary, and in open committee, on national television.

Do people have the faintest idea how dangerous nationalizing the oil companies would be to our economy? To our competitiveness in the global  market?

Nationalizing anything -- look at what's going in Mexico, where corruption is as prevalent as the air a man breathes. Consider the "noble" example of Hugo Chavez in Venezuela, where nationalizing oil, milk, and other resources has created rationing, shortages, limited markets. I do not understand why people keep ignoring economic realities on these issues. Putting the federal government in charge of anything has done nothing but create more waste, fraud, loss, and still has done nothing to solve the problems of gas, water, or other resources.

The notion that a politician in Washington would even thing of pushing for state power on petroleum is just --- ludicrous!

The truth will out --- Waters must be out in 2014!

"Go To Hell": Maxine Waters vs. Paul LePage

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqFIb0uVZrs

Congresswoman Maxine Waters of California: "I think the Tea Party should go straight to hell!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svoKsej0Cuk

Governor Paul LePage of Maine: "You are going to see a lot of headlines saying: 'Governor LePage says to President: "Obama, Go to Hell" ' ".

What is the difference between the two?

The rhetoric is heated, no question about it.

The use of profanity from our public officials is unacceptable.

Yet Governor Paul LePage got a lot of heat from the media in his home state, while Maxine Waters got softballs from the national media markets.

Congresswoman Waters holds a federal office, so naturally she would get more attention from national markets.

However, because LePage is white, and Waters is black, she gets the easy pat-on-the-back, while Governor LePage gets hell for saying "hell".

I do not condone our politicians using foul language -- it's a distraction.

Still, the double standard of shaming the "white man" and bypassing the "black man" is a rank offense to our politicians and our citizens.

We should honor every member of our Congress, as well as every governor in the union, and we should expect them to honor their office and their constituents. But this black-white double standard must stop.

Waters: Putting Taxpayers in the Back of the Bus

I do not use this metaphor as a point of shame, but I am tired of the double-standard which permits black politicians to say whatever they want to, but then demagogues a politician, a pollster, and pundit, or any other person from speaking the truth on matters.

Even reporters have chided Joe Biden for "articulate" when he described President Barack Obama.

Indeed, President Barack Obama is articulate, enough that Democrat turned Republican Artur Davis applauded the president's resounding rhetoric! He admitted that he was fooled, but no longer. David, a Southern Democrat, has witnessed the Democratic party leave him, just as it left Ronald Reagan.

I would say that black politicians have done much in the past to help all voters. I loved J.C. Watts stand up for voters in Oklahoma, and he was an outspoken supporter of Newt Gingrich, which took a lot of guts, considering the track record which the formed House Speaker had in Congress and in his private life.

I applaud Allen West of Florida, who commands a great deal of respect and refused to be defined solely by his color. He is a proud veteran, and we need more legislators like him, who understand that limited government is good government, and nothing more is needed. Then there is Mia Love, who is running as the first African-American woman looking to unseat an incumbent Democrat in Mormon-conservative Utah. I am very excited for her!

The Democratic Party used to be "The White Man's Party".

Sadly, in many ways it still remains "The White Man's Party" -- how many people of non-European descent spoke at the DNC last month? The highlighted diversity in the RNC rivals the Democratic party, yet the Mainstream Media refuses to acknowledge this trend. How many black voters has Barack Obama reached out to in the past few months? I

The "colored glasses" which have pasted the Republicans as "The Rich, Old, White Guys' Party" has fallen apart, yet the elites in universities and newspaper editorial boards refused to recognize the fact.

My intent is nothing more than to arrest attention to the terrible trends from the Democratic Party toward "minority voters", many of whom have been fed a bill of good which tells them that the government cares for them and wants only the best.

Just one perusal through Losing Ground, and long-time voters for the DNC will flee, and the party will lose the ground which it never should have had in the first place!

Maxine Waters has used race against her race -- she helps put taxpayers at the back of the bus. Black, white, Hispanic, there is no reason why more people should be paying taxes which fund nothing but defunct policies, and why are we treating people who are down on their lack as if they are completely incapable of getting ahead in life?

Government has not helped one person get out of dependency to revel in the independence which men and women are endowed by right to receive.

Maxine Waters does not seem to care. Does she not recognize the poverty and the criminality in her own 35th and now 43rd District? Does she have no respect whatsoever for the youth who do not see their own parents grow up into a thriving adulthood?! Photo-ops and demonizing "The Tea Party" will not help voters who are looking for work, not just a handout.

Come to think of it, I fear that Maxine Waters is putting all her voters in the back of the bus!

Maxine Waters: Hiding Behind the Race Card

Waters: No Dignity
Like many black politicians, Maxine Waters has coasted on her color to get reelected term after term.

Only this past year did Maxine Waters begin demanding that President Obama do more for the black communities in the South Los Angeles/Inglewood regions.

Sadly, this move will not move a president who really does not care about black people.

Come to think of it, most black politicians really do not care about black voters.

African-Americans, like every other constituency in this country, in this state, deserve respect from their leaders. I have yet to see the politicians who claim that they represent their race do real and lasting good for the ethnic minorities in their districts.

Maxine Waters may give out hand-shakes and applaud young people for the pictures that they make. The "Herald Publications" apparatus has headlighted her appearance and forays into the public.

But what has she done, beyond show up and take pictures? How can she stand with a president who has done nothing but dump money on failed industries and paying of political pals, while the official unemployment rate for African-Americans is at least five points above the national average? And that is not counting the number of people under-employed or who have given up looking for work.

Maxine Waters has attacked free enterprise, free markets, and free people. When will people open up their eyes and realize that this queen is wearing no clothes?

She can claim her color all she wants, but she does not really care about black people, either, except on election day, when she wants their vote.

Inglewood, Athens, South Los Angeles, Lennox, Lawndale, Hawthorne: they all deserve better than a politician who looks at every election as a coronation for a queen.

End the Reign of Queen Maxine! Vote for Bob Flores for the 43rd!

Maxine Waters Under Investigation

 

"She [Congresswoman Maxine Waters] said she did try to help an association of minority-owned banks, which included OneUnited. They were in trouble partly because of their investments in troubled mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac." -- AP, Jun 5, 2012


For nearly three years, Congresswoman Maxine Waters has been under investigation for improperly steering TARP funds to OneUnited Bank. Recently, a newly impaneled selection of legislators for the House Ethics Committee has ruled that her rights were not infringed during the course of the investigation.

I am amazed that this legislator has been permitted to stall her ongoing improprieties intermixed with the Housing Crisis and the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) initiated in 2008. Sometimes, one gets the untimely impression that minority legislators get undue mercy just because other Congressmen are afraid of the "race card".

TARP was a bad idea from the start, but the South Bay Democrat's efforts to assist either one bank or an association of banks at the expense of the entire financial system is just reprehensible altogether.
When she is not shouting at a crowd of underemployed constituents that "the Tea Party should go straight to hell," she is expanding and micromanaging the role of the federal government in the financial sector of this country. Her economic policies are failing California voters. The interventions of stimulus dollars, excessive regulations, and medical insurance mandates, all supported by Waters at the outset of Obama's term in office, have made things worse for South Bay residents. Her deceiving and insulting rhetoric is dissuading segments of this country from embracing the free market reforms that will instill reform without harming individual liberty.

The reign of Queen Maxine must come to an end. The pandering of federal officials to minority voters must stop. The state of California no longer has a majority population by race, and the entire country is witnessing a significant and welcome shift in demographics, in which "minority" births are now the majority.

Even if Waters did not improperly tip her hand to send a $12 million bailout to her husband's bank, her overzealous efforts on behalf of "minority" banks is a crass anachronism of statist overreach which must be scrapped.

If this country's legislators want to do well by all citizens, they must remove from any favoritism in disbursing financial aid to hurting citizens (why not end the exorbitant welfare state altogether?), end the costly and wasteful drain of taxpayer dollars on shoring up failing banks and other private institutions, and demand full and prompt accountability from all of our Congressional representatives, no matter what their race, creed, or color.

End the Reign of Queen Maxine

Maxine Waters is one of the loudest, rowdiest, crowdiest legislators in Congress.

She is also ranked as one of the  most corrupt.

She has been put under investigation numerous times.

She has been instrumental in steering TARP money to her husband's banks.

She screamed at a jobs convocation in Inglewood -- "I think the Tea Party should go straight to hell!"

The South Los Angeles area deserves better than a screaming, race-baiting politician who plays the race card, then plays the Congress card to get everything she wants.

This lady has no business being in Congresss, and she has got to go.

To the voters in the newly drawn 43rd Congressional District, from Inglewood and South Torrance to Hawthorne and Inglewood:


Do not despair. The word is getting out. Waters may have enjoyed a safe district in the past, but as voters get smart, as the word gets, the unroyal reign of Queen Maxine will come to an end.

The Tea Party: Maxine Water's Inferno

 

"I'm not afraid of anybody," Waters told the crowd. "This is a tough game. You can't be intimidated. You can't be frightened. And as far as I'm concerned, the Tea Party can go straight to hell." (Source, ABC News)

What hell is she speaking of, Congresswoman Waters?

Is she referring to the economic turmoil of her constituents, whose wailing and gnashing of teeth have failed to move the race-baiting Congresswoman and colleagues to promote economic reform that will actually assist recovery?

Is she referring to the stalling tactics of the Tea Party, whose principled opposition to debt ceiling increases in the face of economy-crushing nation debt prevented the liberal opposition from launching another bank-busting stimulus, doomed to fail?

Is she referring to the bloviated myths about Big Government, that a little more money, another public works project, and a whole of left-wing bashing right-wing will reinvigorate an anemic recovery? A stalling recovery rendered moribund by liberal economic policies, which frustrate businesses with shifting regulations, unclear mandates, and temporary tax cuts?

For all the heated rhetoric against the President and the Republican Congress, whom she continues to spuriously lump with the Tea Party Movement, Congresswoman Waters has taken no steps to put out the inferno eating away at her credibility and the economy.

Aside from the inferno of limited-government partisans demanding less intrusion and more freedom to invest and hire, Waters faces the ever-expanding pit of discredited incumbents facing the backlash of voter angst. With the added stressor of redrawn Congressional districts, Waters and Co. may be facing stark challenges to their imperious rule in Congress, where they have laid up treasure for themselves at the expense of the poor and destitute in their districts.

If her political soul is at risk, Waters' caterwauling against the Tea Party will not save her from the final judgment of repudiation and removal from office.
