Still, she saved her sharpest barb for conservatives, especially the populist Tea Party, which helped Republicans take control of the House of Representatives in the November elections. Waters blamed the group for making things worse for working people.

"As far as I'm concerned, the Tea Party can go straight to hell," she said. "And I'm gonna tell them how to get there

And the two are mutually exclusive how?

Also remember pride goeth before a fall. You are lucky to still have a job, don’t be nasty to those who are struggling. That is one of the canards of this board....people act like it is the unemployed’s own fault they are unemployed and it ain’t so. The unemployed are struggling and want to be employed, but the administration has created an antibusiness environment so companies aren’t hiring. Minimum wage has made it too expensive to hire even when you need people, unions have made it impossible to think about new manufacturing or mining concerns.

Her Hell - or - Our Hell?

We are already in "Our Hell" - it's called "Her Heaven"

We want to be in "Her Hell" - which would be "Our Heaven"

Interesting. How exactly has the Tea Party made things worse for working people?

Has the Tea Party increased taxes? No, see Democrats.

Has the Tea Party massively increased our debt? No, see Democrats.

Has the Tea Party introduced policies that will adversely affect American families? No, see Democrats for failing to allow oil production/refining, coal and as a result making the cost of living higher for all.

Has the Tea Party introduced socialized medicine? No, and when your healthcare is limited and/or rationed thank a Democrat. When you find that your overall cost is actually higher thank a Democrat. I could go on.

How about the continued assault on the 2nd Amendment? Tea Party? No.

What about damaging relationships with our historical allies and strategic partners? Which party owns some of the most embarassing and ineffective diplomatic relations? Can’t tag any of this to the Tea Party.

There’s more, but what’s the point? Barry Hussein Barack Obama and crew have owned all of this. The BS and blame game won’t work anymore. They will be voted out, and prayerfully, conservatives will come in to clean this mess up.

Apparently you haven’t struggled with feeling unwanted and valueless like many of the unemployed. Count yourself lucky and go the Church today for a change and thank the Almighty that there but for the grace of God go you.

Mad Maxine is facing ethics charges in Congress. That makes her a Liar among liars, so her credibility is in negative numbers.

I hope she stays out there saying ridiculous things in her unique (incoherent and haranguing) tone. She will do wonders for the image of the democrat party along with Debbie Blabbermouth-Schultz and the increasingly unhinged Nancy Pelosi.

An elected official telling fellow Americans to “go to hell” should be impeached with all benefits denied.

Do these people think Obama giving millions of work permits to illegal aliens is going to help black people looking for jobs especially Southern California?

These people are criminally stupid.

And the two are mutually exclusive how?

One is tied to actual value given to the one signing the paycheck. The other is tied to some intangible "greater good" BS. I happen to be an engineer. Is the greater good served by what I do at work? Hell no. Is my client served? Absolutely. Is my employer? Absolutely. My employer makes a profit off of the work I do. They value me with a paycheck every two weeks.

If I lost my job today and were unable to find another in my current field, I would easily go out and find a job landscaping or delivering furniture or working at a grocery store stocking shelves. And my goal in that job would be to provide more value to my employer than they were paying me for. That is respect. It doesn't come from someone handing me a job I don't deserve. It comes from the work I put into that job.

And to be clear, I am not lucky to have a job. I am blessed to have one. I specifically chose a field of study that was in demand. I busted my butt to get through college in my late 30s while working to help support a family. The work was hard, but I respectfully got through it.

In no way was I being nasty to anyone struggling and wanting to be employed. However, I will question the attitude of anyone thinking that respect comes from simply having a job. Such a person is completely oblivious as to how the free market actually works. No one owes me a job. It's up to me to convince an employer that their bottom line will increase by hiring me.

There is so much in that stupid comment she made -

She quit - in may? For the summer? Just expecting to get back on in Sept?

There is so much irresponsibility and laziness and weird world view wrapped up in those few words.

I’ve caught better looking catfish than Maxine.
They’ve probably been a whole lot smarter than her, too.
