"Gangster government" in Washington DC continues to roll ahead

"Gangster government" is the term used by more and more people, including US Rep. Michelle Bachmann, to describe what is happening in our country right now.

We all see a lot of YouTube videos about politics, but this one really shook us. It's a speech by Rep. Bachmann on C-Span, at the US House of Representatives. It's titled "Obama is running a gangster government." It's quite chilling.

I read the other day that Rep. Bachmann is now starting to get “ethics” complaints filed against her. Sound familiar ?

Why in the hell can't the GOP figure out how to file ETHICS COMPLAINTS against Pelosi and all of the other UNETHICAL Democrats. Can't this be a two way street? Are there no intelligent life forms in the GOP today???

This is absolutely outrageous. This is blatant theft from the U.S. Treasury.

Could someone in MN please tell me why Bachman voted for the food defense or safety act or whatever that abomination was named?

This is why trying to cut government down to size is almost hopeless. Even conservatives respond to the special interests in their districts. In this case, I’m sure the huge agribusinesses such as ADM had a lot to do with Ms. Bachman’s vote.

Don’t forget the money being spent on Hamas.

Probably because the Republicans are getting everything they want from Pelosi. It’s just not what GOP voters want, but who cares about those little nobodies.

2:10 (and before) "this is the most un-American thing I have ever seen in my life"

As I watched the video she described her conversation with a (former) owner of a 15 million dollar GM dealership and how others had gotten their dealerships back with backroom deals with Barney Frank (yuk) I could only think "this is exactly how the mexicans act and that is why mexico $UCK$."

It is becoming clear that the Federal government is broken beyond repair. The several states MUST begin the process of dismantling Federal legislative and executive power and returning that power to the states. The clowns in Washington have ruined our economy and our currency by spending like madmen without the balls to raise enough tax money to pay for the spending. They borrow the money from foreign interests and have sold us down the river for greedy pork spending. THIS MUST STOP. Demand that your state government work toward dismantling Federal power or secede from the Union. Our freedoms are at great risk today as our government has failed...

The Federal government has become a rouge. It must be stripped of its power before it is too late. They have destroyed our economy and our currency and they are destroying our rights as free men. The time is now. Contact your state government officials and DEMAND that they act to reel in Federal government power or secede from the Union. Its over, folks... time to fix the problem or get the hell out before its too late.

We need to remove the power of the Federal government before it is too late. These people are destroying America. We need power localized in our states. The Federal government is broken and it can't be fixed. Both parties are corrupt and we must stop them before its too late... Secede or reform....

No it isn't. Perfectly legal. What is outrageous is that we allow this monster of a Federal government to exist at all. We MUST restore political power to the states and remove legislative and executive power from the madmen/women in Washington. The time is short. We will all soon be slaves to these idiots...

The People of MN just sent the idiot Al Franken to the United States Senate. This speaks volumes as to why we MUST dismantle this monster and return political power to the states. Nobody takes Washington seriously so why bother...

Apparently it is over. If we stay we all become slaves to the Øbamacommies.

If we kick out The Øne there will be race war from those too stupid to see he is a Enemy of the United States. They will not see past skin color and the little rat bass-turd will play up exactly that.

If we split we are “rebels” and traitors to America. The Øne will attempt “beer summits” or some other such ignorant crap and not engage in any serious attempt to stop the communization of the United States if there is serious detaching from the federal tit by any of the States, thus forcing the split so he can attempt total takeover of all government powers.

CNN, MSNBC, CBS NBC, ABC and the rest of MSM will be chanting in unison (as usual) about “the evil, racist, white conservatives” destroying everything the benevolent loving Øne is tirelessly working for to save us from, uh, ourselves.

I suppose we could see what 2012 brings but The Øne has brought about all this in only 6 months, I no longer believe this Republic can survive another three and a half years of the communist bitchqueen.

We need to consolidate political power in the several states and limit the federal government to ministerial administrative functions. Bust it down to size and make it responsible to STATE authority and power.

As for the race war...phfffffth!

Don't worry. Under ObamaCare, assisted suicide for Republicans will become a mandatory health benefit...

I wish sooner than later different conservative sources start addressing liberals by their rightful and deserving name which should be ‘Socialists’ may be this will cause many to give it a second thought what socialism really stands for. Let’s face it; any where else in this world with the exception of the US liberals are referred to as socialists.

For how long do we have to endure all this stuff before we call the purveyors of all that garbage they are heaping upon this nation by their rightful and well deserved name? You may want to recall the old adage…If it quacks like a duck and walks like a duck the probability is that it is a duck.
