Maxine Waters goes nuts on TV, cut-off by chairman
Fox News Live | 2/11/09 | vanity

Posted on 02/11/2009 8:45:38 AM PST by pabianice

Fellow Freepers, you just missed a great show. Democrat Maxine Waters just had a psychotic break during the House grilling of top bank CEOs regarding what happened to the $ 350B they got but somehow never made it to customers.

Maxine -- never the calmest of souls -- got on an incomprehensible tear and, her voice rising and becoming a low-level screech, began accusing the CEOs assembled of piracy, lying, and gross abuse of bank customers. She lit into a litany of every Leftist Lunatic grudge against capitalism in general and banks in particular. Wild-eyed and shaking, she stopped actually asking these poor guys questions and simply yelled accusations at them, telling them to "raise your hands" if they pled guilty. No one could get a word in edgewise. Finally, as Maxine reached the level of Howard Dean screaming at his audience, the chair interrupted and tried to get her to stop self-destructing on TV. Maxine ignored him and kept her screechfest going. Finally, the chair simply stopped her, telling her that she needed to submit her "questions" to the CEOs after the hearing ended. Moment of stunned silence. Then the grilling continued by another, saner Dem.

I hope this makes Youtube. Waters is a raving hatemonger and we need to make sure everyone sees her in action.

I just watched this on Bloomberg, this woman has no idea what she’s talking about, and it was clear to everyone in the room except for her.

Such a classy, intellectual DemoRAT. Trying to blame the DemoRATs’ economy destruction on the bank CEOs??? Nice try Maxine.

One of those CEOs should have asked that mindless fool why Barney Frank and Chris Dodd still have their jobs and have not been indicted??

She’s jealous they did a better job of hiding and squandering taxpayers money than she and her fellow socialists.

Anything that keeps her from hiding more murderers in Cuba may be worth the time.

I’m surprised that none of those top bank CEOs had the mentally agility to say to Congressperson Waters,”with all due respect,I didn’t hear anything that sounded like a question.”
