Maxine Waters Unhinged: Boehner and Cantor Are 'Demons'

[pspr]

At least the House tried to pass a balanced budget amendment.

The Republican-controlled House of Representatives on Friday rejected a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution -- a setback to GOP leaders and conservative activists who claim the measure is necessary to end the federal government's spiraling deficit spending.

A total of 261 members voted for the measure --- 23 votes shy of the two-thirds majority required for passage -- while 165 members opposed it.

Most Republicans supported the measure; most Democrats voted no.

The vote on the amendment was agreed to by both parties over the summer as part of the agreement raising Washington's debt ceiling. Democratic leaders, however, are vehemently opposed to the idea, arguing that it would force the government into an economically destructive cycle of massive spending cuts.

Quote from achilles28:

Do you ever get the feeling politicians play us as fools?

The Democrats and Republicans differ a lot on rhetoric. But differ little on substance.

Both vote for the Wars.
Both vote for the Police State.
Both vote for higher taxes (either via inflation or the tax code).
Both vote for open borders.
Both vote for entitlements.
Both vote for welfare/handouts.
Both vote for bailouts.
Both vote for huge Government.
Both vote for trillion dollar deficits.

The differences are trivial. A rejiggering on entitlements here, a few extra percentage points on taxes, there. And Obamacare. That's it.

All this partisan vitriol and epithets is meant to keep Americans locked in a phony left-right paradigm. In reality, there is very little difference between both parties. It's a game. A joke. Maxine Waters is just doing her job to keep the WWF illusion real. She's like Rowdy Rowdy Piper dissing Big John Stud before a match. It's all bullshit.

I wonder what our resident democrat cheerleaders have to say about this.

True that. Most Republicans like Constitutional rhetoric. But it takes a back-seat to war and police state legislation. It's sort of like a psychological crutch. They need to feel patriotic while the Constitution gets raped.

They're almost tied. See, it's the petty bickering of who's worse/better, that's irrelevant. One's a heaping pile of shit. And the others a heaping pile of shit with maggots on it. And we're gonna debate all day which pile of shit is better?

I quite agree. That's why I like Ron Paul. He's not right on everything, but he is the candidate for people who know that their government sucks.

Political parties change over time, and can't just live off their past glories (or their past foibles). The Democrats used to be the party of segregation, now they're the party of affirmative action. There was a time when many Republicans were against war and against playing world cop. Robert Taft, who in his day was known as "Mr. Republican", was against foreign interventionism and didn't want us to be in NATO.

Today many Republicans insist that Ron Paul is not really a Republican because he has the same foreign policy as Robert Taft.

Maxine waters is as crazy as Christine O'Donnell, imagine the hissy fit the left would be throwing if someone like Christine ODonnell/Glenn Beck said that Pelosi was a "Demon." Yet the left wing media actually attempts to justify the comment..... Michael Steele is a pussy for sitting by, and listening to her ramble on about this.....

I like that video, I perceived that personally as well, the GOP base is trying to take the GOP over off the cliff. You lean to the right, but you are not Santorum or Newt, you are more like a consistent Mittens, which why the GOP is determined to put him up as the nominee.
