Congress-people, for lack of a better term.

I refer to the bunch--collectively--as: "Congress-creep."

That’s why our smarter ancestors used poles, rails, tar and feathers.

We lost that as we as a society became more and more wuzzified. There are FAR too many cops FAR too many laws and WAY WAY too many dishonest greedy and thoroughly Machiavellian lawyers (but I repeat myself). These days if you tar and feather a "well deserving" crook the cops put you in jail .. in the good ol' days the cops looked the other way and in a lot of cases lent a hand

I used to use the term congress-critters, but then with the help of the SPCA and various other nut-case groups, I realized that I was belittling little, helpless “critters.”

So, I stopped and now I just call them what they are: PR!CKS and SH!T!!

Kinda like when Sherrod Brown sent me a reply that said “Do amnesty first, then we can decide how many border patrol we need and how high to build the fence.”

I told him to get ******.

Who was the clueless woman in the video who got her head handed to her by the crowd for her lame explanation that she has never seen legislators work as hard on a piece of, er, legislation than on this one?

Typical government mindset - apparently in their feeble brains, it doesn't matter that you're doing a horribly-wrong thing for the country as long as you're a government wonk putting in a lot of work in order to do that horribly-wrong thing...

IIRC, it was the Romanian people who, after the fall of communism, put against the wall and shot the former Romanian president and first lady.

Funny how that worked out.

Ah, that explains what she’s doing there... All of the pol-idiots need to feel some heat from the citizens as a reaction to the leftist stupidity that they’re trying to cram down our throats...

That's called Romanian style term limits.

This incident has been totally mischaracterized. What Specter was describing was the way that his staff has to treat any bill that comes across his desk, and that this is not the first 1000+ page bill to do so. What he was saying was that what his staff does they have to do fast with any bill because they see so many. He wasn't proposing that healthcare legislation be passed at warp speed with no review, he was proclaiming his office's dilligence in the way it treats every bill.

The elites are acting as if we stupid proles have no alternate to the government-run propaganda machine. The government-created financial meltdown was the excuse for ramming the porkulus measures through with no debate. We have an artificial health care “crisis” that is unrelentingly hyped by the propagandists. We have the climate change “crisis” that demands immediate huge tax increases and wealth transfers, without the slightest effect on climate. This is the liberal fascist way, it is the hallmark of the Pelosi/Reid congress, it is the catch phrase of Rahm Emanuel, with the original research by Machiavelli as plagiarized later by Saul Alinsky.
