Obey to Kucinich: #$%@!!!
The Politico ^ | May 08, 2007 | David Baumann and Josephine Hearn

Posted on 05/09/2007 7:47:10 AM PDT by tlb

Rep. Dave Obey (D-Wis.) is at it again. He’s already been captured on “YouTube” denouncing “idiot liberals” over the war.

Tuesday he went a step further. He offended some fellow Democrats with delicate ears when he used extremely strong language to attack anti-war Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio), during a House Democratic caucus meeting, according to sources who were in the room.

“He cursed at him,” said Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.). “I think Mr. Obey was unfairly harsh and disrespectful."

What exactly was said is still in question. One source wasn’t sure and others wouldn’t repeat the language.

Kucinich asked Obey about language dealing with privatization of Iraqi oil. Obey’s reply included some magic words, which prompted Rep. Diane E. Watson (D-Calif.) to declare that she was not attending the meeting to hear such vulgarity.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) attempted to make peace, but some still were not satisfied.

Asked later whether Obey had answered his question, Kucinich smiled and said, “I’ll respond at a later date.”

The deal is, they’re ALL whores - political whores.

But, you can’t say that to a woman, because the person on the receiving end will immediately blow it up into a scandal implying that the person meant sexual whore.

That must be how these people talk to each other in their meetings.

Obey better watch out. Mrs. Kucinich could put a hurt on him.

Kucinich's conspiracy tinged moonbattery is too much even for some liberals.

Rep Baca (Dim-CA) called Rep Sanchez (Dim-CA) a “ho” when he was talking to another CA Dim at a meeting. Other CA Dim told Sanchez (Dim-CA). Big dust up in Hispanic caucus followed. Neat thing is that Baca and Sanchez represent ajoining districts in SoCal and live less that 25 miles apart.

Liberalism is indeed a mental disorder. We are going to have our flirtation with Chiracism, and if we don’t lose our civilization, we might be OK.

Coworker came up and volunteered that she aborted a kid she had while married. She just couldn’t handle it you see.

The irony was she was adopted. The parents were married with eight kids, and she was the ninth. Her mom took her to term, then dropped her off with the county, where she was adopted five days later.

On top of that, she has kids that she loves.

And I quote, “It really is a personal decision.”

I hate to sound sexist, but I thought the world would be a better place with women in charge?

I think, at this point, we can agree that taking the power of life and death away from God, and handing it to people, especially women, has been a bad idea.

This may seem way off the topic, but it isn’t. Liberals have no unifying set of principles, which is why I think their days are numbered. It’s only a matter of time when we lose a major city, and then we can hunt the idiots down and lock’em up.

Zot away, me buckos.

For some reason whenever I see Kucinich with his ‘wife’ I get the same creepy feeling I do when I see women who ‘fall in love’ with convicted serial killers.

I can’t explain why that is, I just know it happens every time I see a picture of them.

Dennis isn’t a serial killer, just a serial mope.

‘Dennis isn’t a serial killer, just a serial mope.’

I know, but his new wife gives me the same impression of those that marry serial killers. Can’t explain it, it just does.

Impeachment Bid Making Little Headway

Representative Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio) has introduced a resolution calling for Vice-President Dick Chenney to be impeached. Kucinich’s resolution says that Cheney “has purposely manipulated the intelligence process to deceive the citizens and Congress of the United States.” “Vice-President Chenney led a cabal that misled congress and the American people into believing that there was such a place as Iraq,” said Kucinich. “Try as I might, I have been unable to locate this place on a map. I am convinced that Chenney fabricated reports of the existence of this mythical country so he could lead us into to war.”

Kucinich brushed aside the numerous eye-witness reports on the Iraq War as “skillfully crafted propaganda.” “If they can fake a moon landing and get the world to believe, faking a war is child’s play,” Kucinich reasoned.

The Ohio congressman said his suspicions were aroused by a DVD sent to him by a constituent. “One of my constituents sent me a DVD documentary on the so-called war,” Kucinich explained. “It was titled ‘Jarhead.’ While this video appeared to show U.S troops in battle in Iraq, I recognized one of the G.I.s as the same guy in that homosexual cowboy movie. It was then that I realized, these people in the so-called documentary were actors and the war was a fake.”

Thus far, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has spurned Kucinich’s request to schedule impeachment hearings. “While I can’t argue with Dennis’ logic,” Pelosi admitted, “his focus on Chenney falls short of the mark. Removing Chenney won’t solve the problem. Bush would still hold the reins of government.”

Pelosi said she would be willing to reconsider Kucinich’s request if it were to be expanded to include impeaching both Chenney and Bush. “For impeachment to be effective, both the President and Vice-President must be simultaneously removed from office,” Pelosi said. “This is the only way to ensure that power passes into responsible hands.”

LOL!

The liberals are devouring themselves. At least some see the lunatic fringe like Kucinich as an obstacle to the Democrats being able to take power in both Congress and the White House. Mainstream America does not identify with kooks like Kucinich.

You are completely wrong on this. They do not see the lunatic fringe as an obstacle as they agree with a vast majority of what the lunatic fringe wants.

What they want though is to keep the lunatic fringe silent and hidden because exposure of their mutually shared agenda is the problem and causes them to lose.

If you read through the postings below the article on the linked site, someone claims:

I heard he called him a " ****ing Alfalpha sprout eatin Midget."

No source cited, so the poster probably made it up. Humorous though :)
