This is pitiful and disgusting. Maxine Waters is very sure that the Tea Party attendees met in D.C. because the President is black, but she wants to send her pitbulls -the media- out to ask what they really want. Go get ‘em, rover! Uncover the soft underbelly of racism!
Doesn’t matter that race didn’t seem to be the issue, as there were people there of pretty much every ethnicity… holding up signs that said ‘kill HEALTHCARE’. They knew what they were protesting… too bad our lawmakers are clueless.
Democrats like boxes; they feel ever so much more secure if they can put you in a box, slap a label on your ass and dismiss the entire matter as part of ‘x’. It’s racism. It’s ‘right wing conservatives’ pooping on the President. It’s always something they can use to diminish whatever has happened. And always so angry… still. Makes no sense!
“Do they believe that they are simply angry at the President’s policies…?”
As if the protestors don’t know what they’re upset about. Have mercy.
She ought to get together with ACORN head Bertha Lewis, who wants us to know that despite their problems, they will always be there to “serve low and moderate income people of color”.
Because there are no poor white people. More boxes.

I better not say what I think of Ms. Waters.
September 17th, 2009 at 4:20 pm
I know exactly what you mean…

What a joke silly ms. waters……

I like what Rush had to say on this: Go ahead & sic the media on these protesters…that’s exactly what we want – the media to actually cover what we are angry about!
Let ‘em find out, firsthand, that this is not racially charged, but a battle for our freedom from bloated government! Maybe if they hear it from some of their own, it’ll start to sink in (granted, the skulls in question are very thick, so osmosis will take quite a bit of time).
September 17th, 2009 at 4:23 pm
I don’t think it will ever sink in, no matter who puts what evidence in front of them. It’s a very narrow view, but it’s theirs and they like it…
September 17th, 2009 at 6:53 pm
Everyone who protested HAD to have been white. And everyone HAD to have been brainwashed drones. Because there’s no way that many people could collectively be that pissed off over the same lousy government.
Maxine Waters is an idiot.
September 17th, 2009 at 7:53 pm
I’ll agree with you there…
September 17th, 2009 at 9:52 pm
We aren’t mad because the President is half white. We aren’t mad because he’s half black. We don’t even care that a District in California keeps elect Maxine Waters. We don’t care that she is an idiot. If that’s what that District wants, okay.
We are mad because the politicians, of both Parties, have decided that they are all in the top floor of a two story outhouse and we’re all below them without an umbrella between us.
My family has not sent generations of us to war to have that system. I will struggle to change it until my dying day. Nothing to do with color, creed or where their grandparents came from, Americans are not supposed to be peed and shat on. If Ms. Waters or that bitter, senile old hack Jimmeh Carter cannot understand that, fine. We are marching and talking now. They should look to history, eventually the time for talking will end. Heed us now or see what happens next.
Pam, you need to find a big mob emoticon, with pitchforks and tar and feathers.

Spot on! And I’ll look for that mob smiley…
September 18th, 2009 at 7:22 am
So, according to the Lefties and Dems, Carter is NOT an anti-Semite for criticizing Israel and her policies BUT anyone who criticizes Obama’s policies IS a racist?
And the spin machine keeps churning…
September 18th, 2009 at 9:01 am
Yeah, I can’t quite wrap my head around that one… makes no fucking sense… which is why it’s frustrating the hell outta me…
September 18th, 2009 at 8:19 am
Peter is dead spot on.
Seriously, this is the best the Democrats can come up with?! Racism? Really? You’ve got nothing better in your bag of tricks?
No matter how bad people may have felt about President Bush and his policies, you never saw the beginnings of the revolution that is coming, that you have today.
Peter is right and I think Washington knows it. If they don’t start listening to their constituents and get their heads out of their collective asses, they’re going to see something that hasn’t happened for a century. A revolution WILL take place.
To quote Obama himself (funny how no one refers to him, even the media, as “President Obama”…shows how he’s thought of pretty clearly) said to a group of school children, “Go and change the world!” Well get ready Mr. O, because that day is gaining speed and you’re not going to have a good time when it comes. You, Pelosi, Biden, Carter and all your sad little cronies. Yep, look at that black, white, female, male, old and older…all together. Not picking out any one person, race, sex or creed. Just the morons.
Wish ya’ luck…but I was told it’s a sin to lie.
September 18th, 2009 at 9:03 am
I don’t know whether it’s an overt sign of disrespect to simply call him ‘obama’ with the title… or… have they made that one name all you need to know? Sort of like Cher. Oprah. They’ve branded him. He’s a commodity.
September 18th, 2009 at 9:36 am
Oh he’s been branded…but it was a brand before the election was complete.
In my case, he lost my respect. I can’t say “President Obama” without vomiting in my mouth a little more each time. So I just don’t do it.
September 18th, 2009 at 10:27 am
I have no respect for him. Just watched a video from a year ago where he was talking about his version of healthcare costing many billions of dollars… and now he’s waffled.
September 18th, 2009 at 10:09 am
Personaly I am tired of being wee weed on by obama – by the way, wee wee ment piss/urin/number 1 when I grew up in chicago but none of the news media said what he ment when he said all wee weed up means all pissed off
September 18th, 2009 at 10:27 am
I didn’t know what the hell he was talking about…
September 18th, 2009 at 5:31 pm
Yeah, Mz Waters, well we want to know why the media isn’t listening to us or asking us questions. We want them at the rallies asking us questions and covering the events too. And yes, Mz Waters, we’d very much like it if you’d listen to us. And no, Mz Waters, everyone in front of the Capitol on the 12th was not white, but I sure do wish more of other races would join us, they would be more than welcomed – believe me. And no, Mz Waters, you may not put words in our mouths and thoughts to our minds – race has nothing. what. so. ever. to do with why we are riled up. Though for an “angry mob” there sure were a lot of smiles and laughter in DC that day. I’m right here, I was there, just ask me.

We know all we need to know about Maxine Waters. Yesterday she voted in favor of child sex slavery.
September 19th, 2009 at 1:36 pm
Yep!
