Peter King was right. Never let a charge of racism go unchallenged.

[wideawake]

He should sue her for defamation.

[HEY4QDEMS]

[Mister Baredog]

To Maxine ALL whites are RACISTS. She is one of the biggest RACISTS in Congress.

[LibWhacker]

What an Uncle Tom.

No, wait . . . I take that back . . . I read the book and not even an Uncle Tom would stoop so low as to defend a Grand Kleagle. She's a thousand times worse than Uncle Tom.

[timestax]

Unreal!!

[cicero's_son]

Absolutely incredible.

30-40 years from now, decent black folks will look back on this shameful incident in amazement. Imagine it! The spectacle of a so-called civil rights leader DEFENDING a Klansman merely to protect her own power base.

[journey7873]

Ah, democrats...always willing to lean on the crutch of racism...only when it works in their favor.

[doug from upland]

This is great. She attacks Peter King, one of the least conservative Republicans. They are out of control. Hey, Mad Max, it's not working anymore.

[van_erwin]

Waters' comments make no sense to me. If she's calling King a racist, what the heck is she talking about?
How is he a racist according to her?

[b4its2late]

She's the best thing to happen to the Republican Party. Let her keep spewing her hate...... But, watching her get sued would be fun too.

[GiveEmDubya]

I watched that. I'm shocked but not surprised.

The ex-Klansman Democrat is OK but the squeaky-clean Republican is a racist just because Maxine says so. If Byrd was a Republican she'd be all over him...

[clintonh8r]

The bitch is crazy. King should have pounded on her without mercy. She had no substantiation for such outrageous charges.

[Eric Esot]

Ah Maxine Waters - loved her rant a few days after the '92 riots in LA, about how whites "better treat blacks better", and how it was the racism of "Reagan and Bush" that caused the riots. She was just brilliant I tell ya, really bridged the gap on that one!

[Reagan79]

Peter King a racist??? Hahahahaha. Now that is so typical of Maxine Waters. Everybody knows Peter King is one of the most progressive members on issues of racial diversity. She is the worst racist thug in Congress! She just throws out wild accusations because since she is a racist, she assumes everybody is a racist. Of course the rats or the media won't call her on that. She should apologize to King in front of the entire Congressional body.

[Argus]

All we have is an invasion where millions of people--maybe, well, thousands of civilians have been killed, over 125 service people have been killed, Americans have been killed. The country has been looted and robbed of its arts and artifacts

Millions...well, thousands...okay, hundreds.

BTW, when Angelenos were looting and robbing their own city of its "arts and artifacts", Ms Waters called it "an uprising". You'd think a good communist like Maxine would approve of the people redistributing the wealth.

[Ceebass]

Remember the old joke:

Q:What's a racist?

A: Someone winning an argument with a liberal.

[plain talk]

You went lower when you called--when you tried to inject racism into this argument

She calls him a racist and then accuses him of bringing up racism?

[lilylangtree]

Go getter' Peter! Get so sick of the Black RATS trying someway to point the finger at the Repubs when they can't clean their own house. When I think of what they did to Trent Lott (and I'm no fan of Lott's) and they have the unmitigated gaul to defend other RATS of far worse, I have no respect for them.

[sheik yerbouty]

Mad Maxine is one crispy critter!

[mabelkitty]

I want to hear her defend Dennis Kucinich, too.

Read the article on posted on his blatant racism THAT NOBODY SEEMS TO CARE ABOUT!!! HE'S RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT, FOR G-D'S SAKE!!

[Aracelis]

I can think of no one more vile and racist than someone "of color" who continues to support legislation that oppresses the Black community. Maxine remaines in power because she keeps her constituency ignorant...which is jus' how she like 'em...in the ghetto and ignorant.

Maxine, if they ever catch on to you, you'll be out of Washington faster than crap through a goose.

[chainsaw]

Maxine H2O The country has been looted and robbed of its arts and artifacts, and this president then gloats and flies in, a tailhook landing on the USS Abraham in a custom-fitted suit?

ROTFLMAO

That stupid dork makes my day every time she opens her mouth.

[Paul Atreides]

Maxine Water is nothing but a race whore. He should have referred to her as such in front of the entire audience.

[evad]

I wish the media would stop referring to "Sheets" as a FORMER klu klux klansman.

He was, IS and always will be a klu klux klansman.

[ladyinred]

Maxine Waters is the most racist of all. She is so full of hatred for anyone who isn't like herself. I can't understand how someone as mean spirited and single minded as she is gets reelected, or is taken seriously by anyone. There will come a day when people realize that racism is not limited to whites. How she can defend a former KKK member is proof of how biased she is, and what a hypocrite.

[green team 1999]

thnk you,great posting,love that exchange.
