House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., told reporters today that the Tea Party movement is making some members of Congress mull retirement. “Do I think the negative atmosphere that has been created by the Tea Party and by others certainly goes into the thinking of members? I think it does. I think you have to honestly point out that it does,” he told reporters Tuesday. Hoyer was responding to questions about Michigan Rep. Bart Stupak’s decision last week to retire rather than seek another term.

Que the “HAHA” guy from the Simpsons!!!
With skewed thinking like that, he'd better think about retiring. Has this boob ever heard of the First Amendment (the right to peacefully assemble, free speech...)?
Negative atmosphere?
Compare a tea party rally with any leftist rally.
Hey Steny, the party’s over. You people are frauds and it’s become obvious to the masses now. Get out and stay out
Oh, bye-bye, baby
The party’s over,
I have gone away.
The party’s over,
I have gone away.
The party’s over,
I have gone away.
The party’s over,
I have gone away.
Oo, the party’s over,
I have gone away.
“negative atmosphere” - tee hee
Poor babies, the adoring Beltway press can’t keep out the phone calls, the emails, the letters. And their union buddies couldn’t hush the Tea Party folks at the Town Halls in their districts.
And, what’s the matter with those folks anyway - Obamacare passed and they are STILL talking about it. Why can’t THEY just move on? Nan promised us that Americans would love Obamacare.
LOL! So, the Tea Parties have caused a negative atmosphere---among liberals! I love it!
Oh, we’re sorry Steny, we had no idea we were upsetting you guys so much. Well hey, we don’t want you guys to get all sad and retire on us. We’ll stop now, you guys go back to f#ucking up the country, ok?
It’s too bad congresscritters have the option to retire — leaving Congress should force them to search for a real job where performance counts and non-performance gets them fired.
Hey Steny!
‘Bout time you found out what a layoff is like...the Voter sponsored Early Retirement option Stupak took is a good idea, more of your members should avail themselves of the option!
The party’s over
It’s time to call it a day
They’ve burst your pretty balloon
And taken the moon away
It’s time to wind up the masquerade
Just make your mind up the piper must be paid
Steny is a socialist scumbag who will deserve the tar and feathering he gets.
“Do I think the negative atmosphere that has been created by the Tea Party...”
...that “negative atmosphere” is called peaceful dissent! And it’s dissent against a large group of commie boobs who unfortunately work for us...until November anyway. Unf’nbelievable how hundreds of thousands of hard working, tax paying, true blue Americans can peacefully assemble (on their own time and w/o pay) over and over and be called a “negative atmosphere”.
Republicans here in Maryland are dong our best to see that Steny gets retired.
Charles Lollar is the man who can do it.
“Republicans here in Maryland are dong our best to see that Steny gets retired”.
...you sure must be lonely. Half the time I see a MD plate it has a BO sticker next to it.
