And Pelosi and Reid obviously agree with this anti-American rhetoric. The DNC is imploding. Good riddance.

Well, give Kerosene Maxine an “A” for honesty. She tells the Tea Party to “Go to Hell” and tells banks she is going to tax them out of existence. No Obama-like double talk out of her.

Maxine should know all about “gangstas.”

Incidentally, her hubby is involved in banking and she throws business his way through government help for minority bankers.

Perhaps they should start with her “banker” husband? She got Barney Frank to give her husband’s failing bank special consideration.

Is this going to be before or after we take over the oil companies? Heck, let’s just let the govt. take over everything.

I wish there was a way to get rid of “gangsta” politicians who come from districts where 99% of voters are braindead.

Is she going to tax the banks out of business before or after she socializes the oil companies?

IBD had a great article today on Mad Max and the housing collapse, and her role in it,

complete with before and after quotes.

Somebody buy Maxine a one-way ticket to North Korea. She’ll love it there.

That’s true..they damage their own cause....a few days ago, there were several big articles about how the CBC wants Obama to do more for blacks and the inner cities.....his key constituency is unhappy..then, the next day, that congressman says that the GOP wants all blacks to be lynchwed..hang from trees....basically..that gives the GOP cover to tell them all to go and pound sand..
