GOVERNMENT HACK OF THE DAY
NEALZ NUZE ^ | June 29, 2009 | NEAL BOORTZ

California State Assembly Speaker Karen Bass, a Democrat, did an interview with the LA Times. Thought you may enjoy her response to the following question: How do you think conservative talk radio has affected the Legislature's work?

Bass' response: The Republicans were essentially threatened and terrorized against voting for revenue. Now [some] are facing recalls. They operate under a terrorist threat: "You vote for revenue and your career is over." I don't know why we allow that kind of terrorism to exist. I guess it's about free speech, but it's extremely unfair.

Now that's a first. I know that politicians don't particularly like talk radio, and I know that many politicians are quietly plotting the demise of conservative talk radio wherever they can find it and by whatever means. This, though, is the first time I've heard a politician call talk show hosts terrorists. She wonders how in the world we can allow talk radio terrorism to exist.

OK .. so this is just one barking moonbat from California ... though a powerful one. Let's see how long it takes for the rest of the left to pick up the "terrorism" gambit.

She is brain dead. To her,taxes are the only way to allow big spending bills to pass. Anyone who disagrees, is a terrorist? WOW.


What’s scary is that most on the left in California actually believe this. They simply can not comprehend cutting spending. Their whole crowd thinks the same way so they don’t even know anyone who think differently. Their whole world view is spending. Revenue (taxes) must be raised to equal spending in their view, not the other way around. They know nothing else.

Liberal fascism relies on the stupidity of a vast number of people who hate freedom, hate those who are able to make something of themselves. Karen Bass is a perfect example of a brainless sociopath who should never have been allowed power. Second-raters like Bass can’t stand the idea that some people prefer freedom and accept responsibility for their lives. Our system of government has been perverted to the point that we are now forced to live under a dictatorship of second-raters like Bass.

She got her start in “community activism”.

That about says it all.
