Maxine Waters: "The tea party can go straight to hell"

So much for dialing back the rhetoric, right?

On Saturday in Inglewood, Calif., Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters had some harsh words for the tea party.

“I’m not afraid of anybody,” the California congresswoman told constituents in footage that appeared on ABC affiliate KABC in Los Angeles, not backing down from comments made about President Obama earlier in the week. “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.”

That proclamation was met with cheers from the audience, including attendees sporting purple SEIU T-shirts.

Wow, really, Maxine? I have never heard anyone say The Congressional Black Caucus can go straight to hell. No one would ever dare, but you know what? I think that day of whites feeling intimidated by blacks is quickly coming to an end. It’s called PUSH BACK.

South Central L.A. Tea Party Leader Calls on Black Caucus To Abandon Race-Based Allegiance To Obama

LOS ANGELES—Members of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) got an earful regarding the lack of jobs during the “For the People” Jobs Initiative town hall meeting in Detroit yesterday. Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) responded to the predominantly black audience, “We don’t put pressure on the president because ya’ll love the president….We’re supportive of the president, but we’re getting tired, ya’ll…. We want to give the president every opportunity to show what he can do…to lead…. But the unemployment is unconscionable…our people are hurting.” South Central L.A. Tea Party Founder and President, Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson issued the following statement regarding this matter:

“Rep. Maxine Waters and others in the Congressional Black Caucus are doing a disservice to their constituents by blindly supporting Barack Obama and waiting for him to lead. Obama is a food stamp president and he has no real plan to fix the U.S. economy, which is why he’s not taking his bus tour to impoverished inner cities. Maxine Waters and the CBC need to stop putting politics above the needs of their constituents and hold this president’s feet to the fire.

“For almost three years Obama has made empty promises to the American people about reversing the downward trend of the U.S. economy, but the results speak for themselves. Under Obama’s watch, unemployment is 9.2 percent (more than 16 percent for blacks) and S&P downgraded our credit rating. The unemployment rate in Detroit is over 30 percent and in the nation’s capitol unemployment for young people is at 50 percent. Yet, Obama’s job creation ‘plan’ consists of growing the size of the federal government and extending unemployment benefits!

“The South Central L.A. Tea Party will be listening, and more importantly, watching what Maxine Waters and other members of the CBC do to address these issues leading up to the presidential election. If they’re just giving lip service, then we will be at their town hall meetings to hold them and Obama accountable.”

The South Central L.A. Tea Party (SCLATP) motto is “Power to the People!” It is open to patriotic American men and women of all races. SCLATP was formed in 2011 by Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, who is the Founder and President of BOND Action, a 501 (c) (4) nonprofit organization dedicated to “educating, motivating, and rallying Americans to greater involvement in the moral, cultural and political issues that threaten our great country."

Why are the spineless in DC not raising holy h3ll for her misappropriation of funds to her husband’s bank? I’d love to see her feet held to the fire.

Uncouth, indecorous, vulgar and predictable crassness from the notoriously unladylike Representative Waters. Imagine the lowness of the group she is “representative” of if she’s the top of that heap? God save our once great republic.

Looks like Al Gore’s “Bridge to the 21st Century” was really a bridge over the River Styx which has since been officially dedicated and known in hell as A bridge over Maxine Waters. What a hag.

It’s almost as if they sense a deluge coming...a landslide of epic proportions in 2012.

‘Rime of the Ancient Democrat’

“I think sentient Democrats are watching their party’s chances in 2012 slip away, and had they not made such a big deal of claiming all opposition to Obama was racist in motivation and effect (see, e.g., this), they would now be urging him to quit and seeking a new contender for his office. Like Coleridge’s ancient Mariner, however, they can only stand on deck with that albatross around their neck watching both the White House and the Senate slip from their grasp just as did so many state governorships and the House of Representatives.

In the meantime the Ship of State runs aground on the shoals of incompetence, corruption and laughable idiocy.”

******

Waters helps Obama lose votes? We should encourage Waters to keep jumping all over the Tea Party during the 2012 presidential campaign with her bizarre, ugly remarks, because the more she opens her ugly mouth, the more VOTES she will lose for President Obama come election day Nov. 2012.

So I say this to Waters: Keep up the great work, and if President Obama loses on election day Nov. 2012, you can surely take a lot of credit for his lost.
