Obama White House Calls GOP a "Cult Worthy of Jonestown"
Town Hall ^ | Dec 18, 2013 | Conn Carroll

Posted on 12/18/2013 8:41:35 AM PST by Texas Fossil

Today, Politico confirmed that governing-by-executive-fiat is exactly what Podesta has in mind. The only shocking part of the story is Podesta's justification for shredding the Constitution:

In effect, I was told, it represents the clearest sign to date of the administration’s interest in shifting the paradigm of Obama’s presidency through the forceful, unapologetic and occasionally provocative application of White House power. Podesta, whose official mandate includes enforcement of numerous executive orders on emissions and the environment, suggested as much when he spoke with me earlier this fall about Obama’s team. “They need to focus on executive action given that they are facing a second term against a cult worthy of Jonestown in charge of one of the houses of Congress,” he told me.

Liberalism (as in Progressive ComDems) is truly a mental disorder.

Oh, Nov. 2014 cannot come soon enough.

God Help the US.

The LIB/DIM “mind” is capable of continuous idiocy. This subhuman podesta is a loser’s loser.

I can’t decide who to despise more, the White House or their toadies in the media who cover for them. I think I will show my impartiality and despise them all equally...

Why is it we never hear the same asinine remarks by Republicans as a constant basis like we do from the Rats? They are constantly goading Republicans.

Well, if he's referring to the GOP establishment, he's right.

The rinos in the republican establishment seem to be conducting the suicide of the Republican party.

He's not. He thinks the Tea Party is the GOP.

If only.

November '14 won't help.

Neither will November '16.

Obama is not going anywhere, and this story confirms he will rule by diktat.

That is a funny comment considering Jim Jones was in the habit of hobnobing with prominent democrats of his day.

The upcoming ‘Fight of the Century’ will be between Podesta and Jarrett. If you thought Ali vs Frazier was good, standby.

Except Bob Jones was a Leftist and an atheist. I’d say the opposite is true. Seems to me the White house believes up is down, right is wrong, black is white, and short is long.

He’s talking about the Jonestown group that left the USA because they were communists, right?

If Rush Limbaugh, private citizen, had said something like this, the entire GOP would be asked to comment. If Sarah Palin, private citizen, had said something like this, the entire GOP would be asked to comment.

That man, former Chief of Staff AND current Chair for the Center for American Progress DID say that and not a single liberal has been asked to comment.

Expressing disgust among ourselves does no good. We need someone with a camera and a microphone to confront EVERY liberal about that comment, asking them to defend that vile remark.

But, we won’t do that. Instead, we’ll insult and attack each other.

God help us all.
