Congresswoman Maxine Waters offered some advice for President Barack Obama Thursday: It’s time to drop the Super Bowl parties and beer summits with the Republicans and stand up and fight them.
Speaking at a Congressional Black Caucus legislative conference in Washington, the California Democrat said Obama’s “been very nice” in his negotiations with Republicans, but now he needs to fight harder.
“He’s been on the other side of the aisle talking with people. He’s invited them up to the White House to have beer. He’s invited them to come and watch the Super Bowl games,” Waters said, as reported by The Hill. “He’s done all of that, and when they eat his food and drink his beer and leave, then they go and try to kill him [on Capitol Hill].”
“You’ve gotta fight – you will not win this battle without fighting,” she said.
According to The Hill, Waters said she and other Democrats believe that by fighting the Republican Party Obama can be successful — although she also suggested there are questions about whether he will keep fighting for liberal priorities when things tough.
“We love the president. We want him to be successful,” Waters said. “But does he feel our pain? Does he understand what’s going on out here?”
Waters criticized Obama last month for not paying more attention to black communities, particularly in the face of their disproportionate unemployment rate, and said black voters are hesitant to call him out because they “love him.”

- Mad Maxine
Maxine Waters eats the taxpayer’s TARP money, and when caught won’t leave DC.
She has had a very serious cerebral vascular accident. The woman is a loon’s loon. She needs to be boxed up and sent to a very nasty funny farm.
I just love Maxine! I really do. She’s the gift that just keeps on giving.

I used to sometimes wonder how difficult it would be to be a congressman. I mean understand all that committee stuff and making speeches before the nation etc.
Then I read about Maxine Waters and realize one can be a real dummy and do it.
