Isn’t Maxine Waters the idiot who wanted the Mars lander camera to look for the American flag that was planted during the Apollo mission???? She thought that the United States had already accomplished a manned mission to Mars.

Can’t you see oil execs spending $$ on exploration, new refineries, drilling equipment with that threat hanging over their head??

Maxine said what she meant.. twice.

“She didn’t mean to be so obvious by spilling the beans.”

Exactly.

Maxine is unaware that rockets exist.

Too late for the Democrats to back out of this one. The statements were made on camera and need to be shouted and showed from the highest mountain.

1) controlling all levels of education in the country...

That is why I am all for vouchers. A solid voucher system can wrest the NEA control of the public schools.

They are ducking and covering and saying anything that might get people riled up."

Looks like she got her +i+ stuck in the wringer and now has to eat crow.

That’s scary, considering that these morons demonstrated how little they know about the oil business last week. Some of their statements were terribly naive, and demonstrated a complete lack of understanding.

On the other hand, what should scare me more is that these same people currently have direct input into setting the destiny of our great country.

. "It was not her intention to announce a big policy proposal. spill the beans It's not a developed [finished, ready to implement,] policy proposal. It was not an intentional statement." [it was an unfortunate slip of the tongue...]

"The Democrats in general do no support this idea,"

"In general"?

Translation: We've got the i's dotted, the t's crossed. Just waiting to get our Marxist Puppet into the WH.

That cat ain't going back into the bag...and it's up to us to not let this slip into oblivion - or WE will.

These plans weren’t to be announced until after November, but some people get excited and can’t keep their mouths shut.

Please disregard what they say until after the elections.

My guess is that neither Waters nor Hinchey really support this idea.

I guess for the first time in their adult lives they REALLY don't support this idea.

But Michael Levin, communications director for Waters, told Cybercast News Service on Friday that Waters did not mean what she said.

BS. She started to say socialize, then she started to say nationalize then she finally said "basically taking over and the government running all of your companies."

When you say it three different ways in the same sentence, but correct yourself twice because you know those words shouldn't be used in public yet, you really, really meant what you said.

I still haven’t had a reply from Rep Boucher asking him if he favors nationalization of the coal industry. The congressman also didn’t comment on the party’s desire to nationalize oil.

here’s the thread:
