On Thursday, March 17, 2011 LaTourette became one of only seven Republicans who voted “NO” on a measure introduced in the US House of Representatives to strip all government funding from NPR.[2]
In a meeting with transit advocates, LaTourette disparaged fellow legislators, referring to them as “knuckledraggers that came in in the last election that hate taxes,” due to their reluctance to even consider revenue as part of a compromise to extend the debt ceiling.[3][4]
On June 28, 2012, LaTourette was one of only two Republicans (along with Scott Rigell of Virginia) who voted against a motion to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in criminal contempt of Congress, though he did vote to bring civil charges against Holder, for his handling of the Fast and Furious gunrunning scandal.[5]
I am amazed at the virulent hate for T partiers who are just traditional Americans tired of being dissed by DC.
I am sympathetic to the T party but now am going to support them and join. I have been sending donations to cnservative candidates for several years instead of Repub entities-RNC, RCC, etc.

Akin was establishment.
That said, if they go after Tim Walberg, I'll be happy to tell them that we don't allow nationals to tell us who to vote for. We are in charge here. DC is not.

Steve. Get in my face, and you'll receive a right hand.
Oh Steve, are you cheating on your current wife with your chief of staff, like you did your previous wife? Banging any other employees?
Why would insiders in government or those entrenched in these two corrupt political parties support smaller government or less taxes?
What the hell is wrong with these people who want the Tea party involved with these bloated corrupt entrenched party’s?
Dumbo politics?
Rope a dope?

Sounds like TheWon.
He also wants the same thing-Dem policies with (maybe) just a very small tweak away from the left side cliff--moderate, NO!

Not worried. They are a bunch of pussies
And I hope you fail miserably.....YOU ARE THE PROBLEM (the RINO backing this)
I smell a RAT.
“That's nice. How about restoration of the House Republican Leadership, Mr. Cantor? You, Speaker Boehner, and Whip McCarthy are spineless and gutless. You won't fight, have no core beliefs, and cave to the Donkeys. I hope you're all retired in the coming primary with gutsy, principled conservatives and not squishes like you.”
I do not think that Kelly has that kind of demeanor. It seems that she is more of a “go with the flow” and not “rock the boat” republican. “Get in our faces” is an obama threat and any republican using it against another republican is just wrong on every level... and it isn’t even original... they are copying the enemy... but then again they are the enemy.
I knew that he was a rat bastard!
RE: Didn’t they name a mental defect after this guy?
Does he curse a lot? :)

It would be interesting to contact Steve LaTourette and see if he would accept donations from the Democratic Socialists of America. Tell him that the members want to help him beat the snot out of the TEA party.
Would he take the money?
