WASHINGTON — Rep. Emanuel Cleaver wanted people to stop complaining for a day and count their blessings.

What he got, however, was just more complaints.

Indeed, the Missouri Democrat was on the receiving end this week of an angry torrent of ill will from conservative Web sites about him and about Congress.

It's up to the people of MO to deal with this quisling.
Since MO is the "Show Me" state, should be an easy enough task. 2010.

“He only wanted us to count our blessings to make it easier for them to tax them.”

Brilliant! I guess there will be a new schedule added to our tax returns: Schedule B1: Schedule of Blessings.

Today’s Methodist “church” is nothing but an extension of the RAT party.

Won't happen. He's my Rep in the 5th district. He was a "I know nothing" corrupt mayor of Kansas City but people still think he's a saint. Kansas City is one of the liberal hell holes in Missouri.

He'll be in office forever. Far as I know there isn't anyone strong enough to defeat him.

"Won't happen. He's my Rep in the 5th district."

Oh?

"He was a 'I know nothing' corrupt mayor of Kansas City but people still think he's a saint. Kansas City is one of the liberal hell holes in Missouri."

I see.
And I'm sure MO districts 1, 2 and 3 are solid 'Rat. also?
Shezam.
Can't help noticing all rat districts are in and or around urban areas. Very small urban districts.

A Milwaukee by any other name.
Milwaukee's 'I know nothing' corrupt Democrat mayor is running for Gov here in WI. Same mo. Can't say Milwaukee's mayor is as corrupt as he is thick, though.
In any event, so this is what to expect. LOL

"He'll be in office forever. Far as I know there isn't anyone strong enough to defeat him."

I understand perfectly.
He's safe.
Seems to be an awful lot of 'safes' out there. In small urban districts. All around the republic.

Thank you kindly for the realty check, barker. :^)

Actually, yes I am. Also being kind to him because I don't want to get banned. You should hear what I have to say about him away from here. Probably very close to what you think.
