She did a pretty good job of equaling that during the Clinton impeachment when she repeatedly declared “the issue is mute”. Just over the shoulder of the guy next to her is a woman working very hard to cover a laugh.

Her stupidity is only exceeded by those in her district who voted for her.

“Considering that Royal Dutch Shell is a British company, it’s hard to see how Maxine has much authority on the matter. Not that she wouldn’t give it the ol’ college try.”

A “big thinker” like Ms. Waters doesn’t get involved with small details such as this trivial example.</extreme s>

“We are headed for a Civil War and anarchy to follow.”

I just finished a novel along these lines. It’s “Patriot” by James Wesley Rawles. The setting at the beginning is a collapse of the currency (because of overextension of government borrowing and spending—sound familiar?) and subsequent anarchy which ends American civilization as we have known it.

The rest of the book is centered about six couples and a few single guys who have prepared for this and how they cope in northern Idaho. After a few years a United Nations military and civilian force sets about to reorganize the American government. I won’t reveal the ending.

These guys are such bubbleheads... they want to break up big businesses.... thats what anti trust and monopoly laws are about. They have fiscal tools such as taxation etc etc Instead they want to operate like the presidents new friend from Venezuala.... and the f-ups of Africa. Seize the stuff. Destroy functioning industries. Mugabe is another classic example.

These are heros of the new marxist radical Obama administration.

They cant understand that what has been in place IS what works. Its the culmination of years and years of western culture. But then again, they are against western culture.

Amateurs at work, idiots and fools. Buffoons.

The electorate in CA-35 would be agreeable to a primary from an Hispanic traditional values DEM. Her district is 50% Hispanic.

But there is no apparatus in place to support such candidates. So the Maxine’s and Chu’s of the world coast along.

Its actually cartoonish. Maxine “Cop Beater” Waters putting the vig on a Shell Oil executive? The left thinks they own the world. They are thugs.Pay back is coming, and when they lose it won’t be pretty.I bet they will run their election fraud machine really hard. Thats what we have to look out for.And in some places violence will erupt, caused by them when their fraud is discoverd and stopped on election day.

We should not be sharing “power” with the left ever again.America should have had its fill of them by next November.It pains us to have to sit and watch thise a$$ hat clowns make our country into a banana republic. Maxine Waters and all the Obama Junta’s running dogs need their a$$es kicked real bad. I look forward to seeing it.

WATERLOGGED

that she’d better watch what she says . . . they’ll give her a long walk off a short pier just for the pique of it.

They are far more authoritarian and ruthless than even this Machivellian gr/b*tch from hell ever thought of being.
