Hostile democratic congressman goes off on kid.



Not that I give a flying rat's ass, only putting it up cuz if it were a republican Todd, KK and the entire liberal flotilla would be marching it down main street.
Just here to keep things real.

Funny how that works around here isn't it. You could even add Pelosi's 18K per month office in S.F. that the tax payers pay for, if that were a republican I am sure they would be on it, or if Alvin Green in S.C. was a Tea Party backed candidate we'd have a thread several pages long by now, but because there Dem whack jobs, not a peep.

That dude isn't so smart...I don't care who's holding a camera, when it's pointed at you it's a good time to not act like an ass.

The rest of whatever you tools wrote fits into the "like an ass" category, as well.

Fish on...

Can you imagine if Rand Paul conducted himself the same way as Etheridge does here what the liberal MSM reaction would be?

Typical frustrated liberal that is about to get spanked. Had that been someone that supported conservatism it would have been in the news for a week and an effort to impeach the individual would have been in high gear.

Thin conservative skin around here today?

Partisanship has no monopoly on jackassedness or asshattery. And Congress is a perfect example. I keep waiting for a Senator or Congressman to say something intelligent. It's been a long wait . . .

Off topic a bit, but it would be so, so easy to vote against Murray this year, . . . except that the Rs decided to run azzhole Rossi against her. That clinching move assures that thousands of independents and undecided will vote for Murray again. It's not that difficult, if only there were some signs of intelligent life within partisan politics.

Speculate much? Or just the latest talking point?

Sounds like the tin foil's a little tight on some here. Classic case of delusions of persecution. But you guys do play the pretty little victim well.

Salmo,

There's always Didier. He did win the straw poll after all.

Speaking of going off topic, I loved the King 5 non-news story where two black girls were arrested for resisting and assault, and King 5 tried to make that into a hate crime. Gotta love that media spin, or implied spin. That girl is lucky she didn't get tased or got taken to the ground with a good old hair hold (my personal favorite back in the day).

This story about the rude democrat, and any examples that may come to light about a rude republican, really just show that they are all assholes, and we need to vote out all of these entitled incumbent SOB's, be they R or D.

Clear the lot of them out. All this video does is to fan the flames of the fascination with abomination that is so active in our society today.

+ many Dogfish.

Who was it that posted the statistic of incumbents being voted out in previous election cycles?

Dan S? KayKayKay?

Something like 14-17% of incumbents being voted out was on the high side of historical measures.

I don't care if my politicians are a-holes. I don't care if your politicians are a-holes.

I just want some damn talent beyond ass-kissery, back stabbery and suck holery.

Unfortunately the people who have the kind of talent I would like to see run this country, are utilizing their talents to create wealth, not use it up.

RR, Word.

Well here's just for starters:

Yes on the Financial Reform Bill.

Yes on the bailouts (both rounds)

No to an audit of the Fed.

Yes to Fed Reserve oversight of banks.

Yes to Congressional pay raises

Voted to confirm both Ben Bernanke and Tim Giethner

Yes on illegal amnesty

Of course I cherry picked the votes I didn't like but I'm no fan of Murray to begin with.

I will give her credit for voting NO on the Patriot Act Reauthorization
in 2005 and 2006.

Rossi is not the GOP's candidate as of yet. Personally I like Didier much better.

Personally:

I emailed her about harvesting the blow down timber around Lake Quinault, gave me a BS "we can't do that" answer.

Business wise:

She votes contrary to common sense on financial industry issues most of the time. She also contributed to the $400,000+ in additional costs that my bank will spend this year responding to unneeded financial reform.

Many of the regulations enacted under her watch do nothing to protect consumers. They add time and expense to the mortgage process, and the consumer foots the bill for it. Maybe 1 in 10 of the changes were actually needed.

Finally:

She's an entrenched incumbent. Time to leave.

She voted "No" on funding our troops in Iraq and Afgahnistan ......enough said! Wether or not she agrees with them being there is one thing, but denying them the funding that they need to do the job they were sent there to do?????? To me that is absurd and unforgivable, I hope come November she will be EX-Senator Murray.

Aunty, with regards to the funding of Operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, I have to disagree with you somewhat. The bill was supported by Blanche Lincoln, Mary Landrieu, Barb Mikulski, Debbie Stabenow and Claire McKaskill and I'm pretty sure they are all liberal females.

Aunty----Instead of asking why she needs to go maybe you could articulate why she should stay.

But one (Murray) has proven to be worthless. She has had ample chances to help this state but hasn't. Boeing, Boeing, gone.....

Sometimes the unknown is at least worth exploring.

Aunty----If you don't need a better reason to vote for anyone, I don't care who, say one of your Goats, just vote opposite of Kaykay.

KK,

You're hitting par today again. Murray is savy and scores points on veterans affairs. Her savy about ingratiating herself with anti-war positions and economic matters unfortunately has her voting bassakwards on a lot of financial issues, where the public is either ignorant or flat out wrong, per Dogfish's points. It's a set of conundrum issues where the electorate is uninformed (IMO), and Murray adopts the position that appeals to them even though she has access to the information that likely allows her to know better. At least these are the inferences I draw from the smarmy patronizing response letters her staffers write. I'm easily offended when a political staffer writes something that could only come from a dumfvk or a liar. But I'll vote for Murray again simply because Rossi is the probably R candidate.
